► Tell us about you and your podcast
Hello. My name is Ollo (O-low). I am a military vet trying to encourage listeners to learn to heal and grow. My podcast is for people who want to heal mentally and focus on self growth. This podcast is our place to tell our stories heal and pass on information that was helpful to us.
► Why & how did you start this podcast?
I started this podcast as an outlet to my own mental health. I have never listened to a podcast before nor did I think people would want to listen to me talk. My goal is to lead by example and heal. This will lead others into their own healing. I started 3 weeks ago as I am typing this now. 05/24/21. The first day I saw RSS i made a podcast and bought the subscription to finally start investing in me.
► How'd you find the time and funding to do this podcast?
I produce episodes Monday's and Friday's. Not going to lie its a struggle sometimes just because of my mental status. But it is very for fulling to now I am helping other so that is my drive. I write or come up with ideas at work. when I get off at 1am I hit record and see what happens. I fund this podcast myself, spending more time each day doing some. thinking about getting a LLC just to get better equipment and travel to meet other podcasters.
► What do you gain from podcasting?
No sponsorship or revenue. I'm still learning how to do that. so for I'm averaging 8 downloads a day in these 3 weeks. Podcasting is making me heathier mental.
► How does your podcasting process look like?
I use fruity loops studio to record my podcast. currently asking friends to be guest on the show. I write podcast now but would like to be live with people to learn how to communicate my writing. my only interview i have I used discord.
► How do you market your show?
I am still learning how to read the analytics. I am on Spotify google and Apple. Apple and Spotify are neck and neck.
► What advice would you share with aspiring (new) podcasters?
Jump in head first. Don't be afraid to miss up or put out a bad recording. let people see your growth and accept critiques. Resources are psychology books, videos, and experiences.
► Where can we learn more about you & your podcasts?
I'm still learning Patreon. Podcasting is a whole new world. My only social account is my snapchat. and that was made so I could check on my Jr. Marines to make sure they were safe.
