Anyone *can* create a podcast really.

At its most basic, all you need is a mic, some audio, a guest—or not!—and the time/energy/money to pay someone to get it up on all the right channels.

But that doesn’t mean that everyone knows how to create a podcast that FULFILLS their soul and FILLS their bank account.

Because let’s just say it: When you’re a soul-driven business owner, a podcast is so much more.

It’s both a “marketing channel” and a vehicle for human connection that feels deeply satisfying on a soul level, connects with ideal clients (and not just any random person on the Internet) and—of course—actually puts money in your pocket.

So if you know it’s time to create a powerful podcast that connects with clients on a soul level and converts them into paying customers, you’ll LOVE Melissa Ingold’s “Heart-To-Heart Podcasting” project kit!

Here’s a breakdown of this project kit:
