When two established HR professionals decide to launch a podcast together, what could go wrong? According to Desiree Goldey and Ashley King, co-hosts of the new Talentless podcast, quite a lot – and that's exactly what made their partnership stronger. In this episode of Workfluencer, we dive deep into their journey from recording "absolutely trash" episodes to building a mission-driven show that's already generating buzz in the talent acquisition space.  If you're considering launching a podcast (solo or with a partner), thinking about content creation as an HR professional, or simply want to understand what it takes to build authentic influence in a crowded space, this episode delivers actionable insights wrapped in refreshingly honest storytelling.   What you’ll learn:  Why they named their podcast, Talentless. Challenges faced by women in the podcasting space. Importance of education and skill-building in HR and talent acquisition. Maintaining creative control and authenticity in content creation. Overcoming societal and internal barriers for women in leadership roles. The learning curve and unexpected challenges of podcasting. Strategies for audience building and community engagement. Ethical considerations regarding podcast metrics and organic growth. Why they believe HR professionals have the power to impact the wealth gap in America.
