On this PodOn episode, Julian and TJ talk to Lessons From A Quitter’s Goli Kalkhoran, about her journey leaving her job, what it was like to start a podcast, and how she pushed through self doubt and limiting beliefs. They’ll touch on their serendipitous encounter at a podcasting fair and dive into Goli’s super encouraging tips on how to survive those first months of podcasting insecurities. Listen to learn more about the Lessons From A Quitter coaching program and why it is okay to still be figuring it out. 

Jump straight into:

(02:34) - Goli’s life before podcasting and jumpstarting Lessons From a Quitter - “In 2016 I knew I was going to eventually start a podcast about this, but I had all these limiting beliefs and all these other stories about why I couldn't.”

(7:46) - Using podcasts to build your brand’s trust factor- “If you have more of a brand that you want to create, a really special thing about podcasting is that it's such an intimate medium.”

(12:06) - Goals and self doubt at the beginning - “It takes a year of podcasting to really feel like you know what you're doing.”

(16:04) - How Goli’s podcast grew into something else- “Sometimes it's just pushing through, but a lot of it was me really working on my mindset and realizing why am I doing this.”

(19:40) - On being too precious about your podcast - “Every time I've pivoted or done something else, it's always worked out really well, so I'm learning that to be less afraid.”

(23:27) - There are no overnight successes - “You're always comparing your step one to someone else's step 20, or step 30, or year 10.”

(27:28) - Why being multifaceted actually works - “People want you to be a full human, they don't necessarily need you to just be a brand.
