Boldli Biz Podcast Experience with Heidi & Alyssa
“Adventure into Creative Entrepreneurship ”
I was recently asked by two successful creative entrepreneurs to be on their podcast! The Boldli Biz Podcast was created in early 2019 by two longtime friends and creative business solopreneurs. Check out their website for more info about their podcast! Each episode features candid conversations about starting and growing a handmade business in the 21st century.
The thought of being on the Boldli Biz Podcast was very exciting BUT... the problem was, I was extremely nervous, like shaky voice and sweaty palms nervous. This wasn’t unexpected for me - I get major stage fright every time I’m on a stage or speaking and I’m naturally quite shy.

But I’m sharing this because I decided to face my fear of hearing my voice recorded and hope that I would be able to help some of the @boldli.biz listeners! It turned out to be an amazing experience, and meeting podcasters Heidi Fahrenbacher of @bellajoypottery and Alyssa Westenbroek-Koster of @awk_clayworks was icing on the cake.

Sure I was nervous, and I need a lot more practice, but I want to inspire someone else to face one of their fears and step out side your comfort zone!
A few things I learned from doing my first podcast:
1️⃣ People listening want to hear what you have to say! 🏽 So own it!
2️⃣ I say “ummmm” way too much!
3️⃣ Schedule time afterward to go for a brisk walk or go workout! 🏽Finding a way to clear the adrenaline from your system will help you feel better and make you more productive the rest of the day!

I can’t wait to do this again! Thank you Heidi & Alyssa!
