You're listening to the Influencer Podcast episode 100. I have to say one of my

proudest moments of my career to date was having the courage to launch this

podcast. When I first started podcasting, I literally had zero experience in radio or

podcasting, zero experience in interviewing guests, zero experience in recording in production, and zero and

zero experience in recording and production and zero experience in editing things like sound bites and audio files.

What I did have was a dream, a laptop, and a passion in me to inspire and teach others what I had

learned. That and the courage to show up got us where we are today. So I sat down in the tiny guest room of my house with nothing more than

my laptop and a $100 microphone and press record for the first time. No

producers, no recording studio, no massive radio company behind it, then I press record 99 more times.

Now here we are 23 months later with an incredible platform of education, inspiration, and resource that is heard in more than

a hundred and ninety two countries and has been downloaded millions of times by Dreamers and believers

like you.

But it wasn't all smooth sailing to get here. No, remember the time

I got wiped off iTunes without warning? Yes, that happened just a few months ago. And if you missed

that whole ordeal and you want to check it out and hear what I learned from it then go over to

episode number 87 Julie Solomon dot net for it slash 87 but with missteps aside the

journey of creating this podcast has taught me more about influence than I could have ever imagined.

So in honor of today's 100th episode, I'm reflecting on three things I've learned about what works and what doesn't

in this crazy online world that we call influence.

So before we dive into our 100th episode today, I want to give a shout out to our amazing

reviewer this week and it's simply Sheila and she said that she

recently just started listening to the podcast and she's loving it so far.
