549. Why Podcast Conferences Leave Podcasters Overwhelmed
Feeling overwhelmed by podcasting advice, creator conferences, and too many decisions? This conversation shows how EPC3 is being built to give independent podcasters more simplicity, stronger connections, and a real sense of community.
I hand the conversation over to the Podcasting Morning Show team for a behind-the-scenes look at Empowered Podcasting Conference 3. Myself, Jason Cercone, Rich Perry, Ralph Estep, and members of the community talk about the origin of EPC, the lessons learned from the first two years, the pressure of planning an intimate conference, and why independent podcasters need spaces where they feel supported instead of overwhelmed.
