“But what will I talk about for an hour?!” 🎙️
The biggest myth stopping people from launching a podcast.
I hear this all the time:
“Podcasting sounds great…
but I can’t imagine talking for an hour!”
And this is where most people get podcasting completely wrong.
🔥 Myth:
You need to speak for an hour.
You need to monologue.
You need to be some kind of expert speaker.
✅ Truth:
Most successful podcasts today aren’t long solo speeches.
They’re conversations.
You don’t have to talk for an hour.
You don’t even have to talk for 30 minutes.
- You simply have to show up with curiosity.
- Ask good questions.
- Enjoy the exchange.
- Let the conversation unfold.
That’s it.
🎙️ Podcasting is NOT about filling time.
It’s about creating connection.
And connection doesn’t need an hour…
Sometimes 12 minutes of clarity can create more impact than a 60-minute ramble.
Here’s what I tell every beginner:
Start with 15–20 minute episodes
Focus on one idea, one story, one lesson
Or invite a guest and let the conversation carry itself
Don’t aim for long — aim for meaningful
Because the truth is:
You don’t grow a podcast by talking longer.
You grow a podcast by talking authentically.
And here’s the best part:
My clients who once said
“I don’t know what to talk about.”
are now hosting powerful shows, attracting clients, and building authority…
Not because they had an hour of content —
but because they had the courage to speak for five minutes and get started.
If you can talk to one person…
You can host a podcast.
If you can have a conversation…
You can build a brand.
So don’t let this myth hold you back.
Your voice doesn’t need an hour.
It just needs a moment and a mic. 🎙️✨
