307 - Why Your Audience Won’t Stick Without A Solid Community
I’m back from Spain, and today we’re talking about something that matters more than the size of your audience: community. Seeing this group hold strong while I was away reminded me of what really makes a podcast thrive. I share a few favorite moments from Madrid and Portugal, along with what I’ve learned about building meaningful connections. I’m grateful to everyone who kept things moving while I was away. It got me thinking about how strong communities grow when listeners feel seen, appreciated, and part of something real. If you’ve been looking for ways to build deeper loyalty with your listeners, you’ll find some ideas here worth trying.
