Tired but Ready to Grow? Why Podcasting Is the Slow & Profitable Way Forward | Isabella Sanchez Castañeda

If you’re navigating chronic illness, burnout, or just done with hustle culture—but still want to grow a profitable, purpose-driven business—this conversation is for you.

In this episode, I’m joined by podcast strategist Isabella Sanchez Castañeda for a deep dive into how long-form content like podcasting is becoming essential for business growth in 2025. We explore how podcasting supports sustainable marketing, deeper visibility, and better client attraction, especially for coaches, creatives, and service providers who are tired of short-form content that doesn't convert.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

• Why podcasting is a low-pressure, high-connection strategy for coaches and consultants
• How long-form content builds trust, nurtures leads, and supports mindset shifts
• Why content fatigue is real (especially for neurodivergent and chronically ill entrepreneurs)
• The 3 I’s of effective long-form marketing: Intention, Intimacy, and less Interruption
• How to align your marketing with your energy, capacity, and values
• Why podcasting creates a coaching-like experience that converts without constant selling
• How to shift from fast growth to slow, aligned, and profitable growth—without burning out

Whether you're a business coach, a creative entrepreneur, or a mission-led founder navigating chronic illness or fatigue, this episode will help you rethink your content strategy through a more human, powerful lens.

🎧 Tune in and discover how to grow a coaching or service business in a way that truly supports your body, your goals, and your impact.
