Do I make any money from podcasting?

podcast May 16, 2019

Here is exactly what I've made from this podcast.

 

We're throwing the stale rules of etiquette out the window and answering one of my most asked questions: Do you make money from podcasting? So here's the honest truth: yes! ...and no. This podcast started as, and still is, a passion project. If I didn't love it I would have quit a looong time ago.

 

 

Maybe the numbers will surprise you, but do you want to know what really surprised me? Even with all the hats I'd worn, I never thought podcaster, coach, or consultant would be my current ones. So I'm breaking it down for you, year-by-year and dollar-by-dollar, am I making money from podcasting?

 

You gotta spend money to make money...right?

 

I've added up all my expenses in almost 3 years of podcasting, everything from babysitters to business coaches, so you can see how much this podcast costs me. And, I've tallied my income (spoiler - my most recent workshop made 100x my first consult), which I share to be as transparent as possible.

 

Of course, after all the numbers are said and done, I'm weighing in on what I see as success and what I see as failure. Because if nothing else, I have grown here on this platform in ways I never expected. So now's as good a time as any to sneak this in: if you have been wanting to launch a podcast I have something big coming. You can sign up to receive podcasting tips from me, and be one of the first to hear my big announcement.
