Podcasting is a great way to get your voice, mission, or story out there, and it's changed my life completely. In this week's episode I'm sharing 10+ reasons you should start a show of your own if you're a life coach, doctor, or healer.

1. Increases the know / like / trust factor with people quickly
2. It’s a flexible way to express your creativity and interests
3. Podcasting establishes you as an expert, and can provide you with a way to explore skill sets if you are coming back into the workforce after having kids)
4. It’s a hobby that can grow into more (or doesn’t have to)
5. It sets you up to network like a champ and make connections in an authentic way
6. Itss fun, and playful, which makes it easier to do
7. You can naturally grow your network
8. Learn new skills in your area of interest by asking your questions from experts
9. It's a media outlet like no other (you're in the same bucket with huge publishers)
10. A show gives you something to talk about in your marketing, giving you topics to include in newsletters and social media
11. It’s still a growing market where women are under-represented
