Podcast launch coaching
Name, concept, format, episode planning, structure, and positioning so your show makes sense before you start buying random stuff.
Podcast coaching that skips the guru nonsense
Podcast coaching for real people who want a show that actually works.
I help people start podcasts, clean up messy setups, make smart gear decisions, and finally move from “we should do this someday” to something real. No vague growth hacks, no fake scarcity, no click-funnel weirdness. Just practical coaching, honest feedback, and a plan you can actually follow.
- Launch planning and podcast positioning
- Gear and setup guidance that fits your budget
- Workflow help for audio, video, and remote recording
- Honest feedback without the fluff

Services
What I can help with
Some people need one call. Some need a plan. Some need somebody to look at what they already built and tell them what is actually worth fixing.
Gear and setup guidance
Microphones, interfaces, cameras, lighting, recording setups, and practical recommendations based on your budget and your actual goals.
Workflow and production help
Recording, editing, remote interviews, file organization, video podcast basics, and how to build a setup you can keep using.
Podcast audit and feedback
If you already have a show, I can listen, watch, review your setup, and tell you what is strong, what is weak, and what I would change first.
Strategy without the hype
Clear next steps for content, consistency, audience fit, and what matters now versus what can wait until later.
Coaching for people who feel behind
You do not need to already know the jargon. This is for beginners, restarters, nonprofits, churches, creatives, and small teams too.
About
A grounded approach
Why this exists
There is way too much podcast advice online that sounds impressive without actually helping anybody. I wanted this to feel different. Clear, useful, honest, and normal.
What working with me feels like
Collaborative, practical, and low-pressure. I am not here to shove you into some template that does not fit you. I want to help you make smart choices and build something you can sustain.
Who this is for
First-time podcasters, existing hosts who want a reset, organizations starting a show, and people who have the idea but keep getting hung up on the details.
How it works
Simple, direct, and not annoying
You reach out
Tell me what you are trying to do, what is confusing, what gear you already have, or where you feel stuck.
We figure out the real need
Sometimes you need a full launch plan. Sometimes you just need the right mic and a better recording flow. We keep it honest.
You get clear next steps
No vague “build your authority” nonsense. You leave knowing what to do next, what to buy, what to skip, or what to fix.
Shows
Podcasts I’ve produced or helped build from the ground up
These are some of the shows I’ve helped launch, produce, shape, or grow. Different voices, different formats, different audiences… same focus on making the thing real and making it work.
Pondoff’s Anonymous
Recovery podcast
Raw, honest, funny, and heavy in all the right ways. A show built for real conversations about addiction, recovery, trauma, and what it actually takes to keep going.
The F Word with Matt Miofsky
Conversations on faith
A thoughtful interview show about faith, doubt, culture, and real life. Clean presentation, strong guest flow, and a format built to feel grounded instead of preachy.
Simple Mental Health
Mental health podcast
Short, honest conversations about anxiety, depression, burnout, recovery, and the everyday work of being human. Straight talk, not overcomplicated.
PAFO
Loose conversation show
A more wandering, unscripted format. Less about tidy takeaways, more about chemistry, voice, and letting a show feel alive without sounding sloppy.
Needed to Hear That
Mental health and recovery conversations
A show designed to make serious conversations feel human and approachable. Honest dialogue, clear structure, and room for both insight and personality.
Burn This Record
Music podcast
A music show with personality, opinions, and strong visual identity. A good example of a podcast that knows what it is and leans into it.
FAQ
The normal questions
Do I need to already have a podcast?
No. Starting from zero is completely fine.
Can you help with video podcasts too?
Yes. Audio-only, video-first, remote recording, in-person setups, or a mix of both.
Will you just tell me what gear to buy?
Yes, if that is what you need. But I would rather recommend gear in the context of your goals and budget so you do not waste money.
Do you work with nonprofits, churches, or organizations?
Yes. This is not just for aspiring influencers. I like helping real people make useful things.
