Tweetable Quotes"I'm all about healing. That's why the show's called Let's Heal with Beth Jones. We focus on the healing. Although I give every guest an opportunity to say whatever they want about how they arrived at a place where they needed to heal, the purpose is to talk about getting to the good place.""I didn't know until I was 50 that I had something I needed to deal with. It kept building for 45 years, and suddenly I was confronted with it. We've all suffered trauma and abuse, and every one of us is at a varying degree of healing.""The most misunderstood thing about me is being a radically different person today than the one people knew me as. Inside, I was not that person at all. I wore a bunch of masks that everybody else gave to me, and they became my Achilles heel in many instances."Connect with Beth LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bethjoneshealingmentor/ Instagram -

Focus podcast marketing efforts on reaching existing podcast listeners rather than trying to convert non-listeners. Target places where podcast fans already congregate, like podcast newsletters and cross-promotions with other shows. 2. Consider niche sponsorship opportunities for podcasts, even before launch. Approach companies in your podcast's industry about sponsoring a season, positioning it as an alternative to expensive conference booths. 3. Use AI tools thoughtfully in podcasting, while being mindful of maintaining the human element. Look for ethical and culturally sensitive applications that enhance rather than replace human creativity. 4.

When interviewing high-profile guests like CEOs, approach the conversation with genuine curiosity. Ask open-ended questions and treat it like a natural conversation to put guests at ease. Tweetable Quotes"It's really so hard to convert someone from a non-listener to a listener and to a podcast lover. I try to do it with my friends all the time. Whatever conversation we're having, I tell them, I have a podcast for you. But they rarely listen, or if they do, they're not going to listen to a second one and get into the habit of it.""The best way to market your podcast is to go where podcast lovers already are. That's why we focus so much on cross promos and features in podcasting newsletters.""My main goal in whatever I do now is finding those clients and teams that I align with based on values and their passion for what they do. That's what really drives me at the end of the day."Connect with Andreea LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreea-coscai Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/andreeacoscai/?hl=en Resources
