You guys, I could not be more excited to bring you this conversation with Travis Chappell — podcast OG, founder of Travis Makes Friends, and truly one of the most strategic and honest voices in the podcasting world right now.

Travis and I first connected when I was a guest on his show, and I just knew I had to have him on Unscripted to pull back the curtain on what podcasting can really do for your brand and business.

In this episode, we get into:

  • Why podcasting is nowhere near oversaturated (and why that narrative is totally wrong)
  • How podcasting helped us both completely redefine our careers
  • Why “being consistent” is just the starting line (not the finish line)
  • The biggest mistake new podcasters make (and how to avoid it)
  • Tips for figuring out your show’s direction without boxing yourself in too early

Whether you're podcast curious, already launched, or knee-deep in weekly episodes like me — this episode is packed with real talk and strategy to help you actually stick with it, grow something meaningful, and avoid the burnout that takes most people out by episode 10.

💬 If this one hit home for you, come slide into my DMs or tag me and Travis in your stories. We LIVE for that connection and conversation. Thanks for listening — and as always, keep it real and keep it Unscripted.
