You know that feeling you get when you’ve poured your heart into your podcast for months, only to see the kind of download numbers you could count on one hand? If that’s you, I want you to know you’re definitely not alone. The sheer number of podcasters who reach out to me, stuck in this exact scenario, is far higher than you’d probably guess. But here’s the kicker: it rarely comes down to a lack of effort or even a lack of content. More often, the problem is rooted in five persistent myths that quietly steer podcasters straight into a rut. Myths I see crop up almost every time I run an audit for someone serious about improving their reach. If you’re at the point where you’re open to a bit of tough love, this episode will give you a chance to step off the hamster wheel, take a proper look at what's holding your show back, and finally start seeing the kind of traction you actually deserve.Book your podcast audit nowhttps://podmastery.co/liteTimestamped summary00:00 Guest Dependency Issues in Podcasts04:00 Downloads Don't Equal Engagement09:41 Podcast Monetization Myths DebunkedMentioned in this episode:Book your Podmaster auditWanna get unstuck from the sub 100 downloads per month doldrums.
