Perfectionism and Podcasting with Andrea Fortenberry

Do you struggle with perfectionism? Then today’s episode is for you. I had the pleasure of sitting down with my friend, Andrea Fortenberry. Andrea and I discuss how she overcame her perfectionistic tendencies to start her podcast, how she keeps perfectionism at bay while creating and producing her podcast, and how her release schedule has helped her. I loved our conversation so much and following my last  episode on podfade, I think this will be just the encouragement you need to push past perfectionism and start (or get back to) podcasting! Pronounced,  AWN-DRAY-UH, Andrea Fortenberry is a writer, speaker, and Bible teacher. She is the host of The Perfectionist’s Guide to Mothering, a podcast that equips moms to find freedom from perfectionism and show up for the life God has for them.  She is on the staff of MOPS International as an Executive Leadership Coach, where she encourages and supports coordinators across the country.  You can connect with her at andreafortenberry.com or on Instagram @andreafortenberry.   Show Takeaways:  Listen in to hear how Andrea overcame some of the obstacles and fears of launching a podcast Learn how Andrea keeps her perfectionism at bay while she’s creating and producing her podcast  Discover how Andrea chose an intentional release schedule for her podcast and help it helps her    Show Links: Join The Podcasting Party Community FB Group DM me on IG Blue Yeti Favorite Podcasting App: Anchor Andrea’s Favorite Podcasts Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast The Alli Worthington Show Out of the Ordinary with Lisa Jo Baker & Christie Purifoy    

Om Podcasten

Are you wanting to start a podcast but are overwhelmed by the amount of information about podcasting? Are you confused by all the technical language, and technology? Are you frustrated by how expensive equipment and the costs associated with podcasting can be? Or do you have a podcast? Are you stressed out trying to create content, record, edit, and upload your episodes each week? Are you frustrated by the lack of growth you see even with all your hard work and dedication? Are you burnt out and ready to quit? Then you’re in the right place. The Podcasting Party is a podcast for podcasters about podcasting. As a podcast coach, I have seen a huge theme emerge with the women I coach: potential podcasters believe in the message they want to share through their podcast but they lack the confidence in themselves when it comes to learning the technology and starting their podcast. They spend months trying to figure it out, google their way through, and by the time they make it to me, they are stressed out, overwhelmed, and frustrated. Beginner podcasters come to me burnt out and ready to throw in the towel. The message they once believed in is now dwarfed by the overwhelm and frustration they feel having to produce a show each week. I’m on a mission to help potential and current podcasters take the stress, overwhelm, and frustration out of podcasting. I believe that podcasting one big party, and you’re invited. Come join me and let’s put the party back into podcasting!
