Recorded on the floor at Podcast Movement, we open up about what it really means to “graduate” a show. Not quitting. Not failure. A deliberate step toward the next chapter. Paula reflects on Season 10 as a season of growth and redirection, while our guest Junaid shares how 700 interviews stayed fresh by letting the format evolve — from beekeeping stories to origin journeys to the habits that keep creators moving.
We dig into why podcasts often start as private diaries that happen to be public, and how that intimacy can evolve into a powerful networking engine. The conversation moves from momentum to leverage: treating each interview as a soft invite into your world, building trust with guests, and letting those relationships compound into collaborations and opportunities. We also confront podfade at its source: post-production. You’ll hear practical ways to reduce the grind, find interns or a team, and build a simple workflow that protects your energy for the part you love—the conversation.
There’s room for joy and texture here too: a detour into beekeeping sparked by a search for local honey, a shoutout to Queen B, and the sponsor moments that keep indie shows rolling. We talk tools that matter, like link dashboards that show exactly which posts drive action, so you can double down on what works and stop guessing. And we ground the creative hustle with mental health—faith as structure and purpose, prayer as recalibration, and community as the safety net that helps you choose whether to pause, pivot, or evolve without shame.
If you’re standing at a crossroads—end the pod, rebrand it, or push on—this conversation gives you language, tactics, and permission. Share this with a friend who’s debating a pivot, and leave a review to tell us: are you pausing, rebranding, or graduating your show next?
