Bonus - Behind the Scenes of a Top 1% Health & Fitness Podcast

Discover the behind-the-scenes magic of the Wits & Weights podcast, where I share my insights on the Mics to Millions podcast with Sam Brake Guia.

Learn how I apply the engineering mindset to streamline podcast production AND provide the most targeted information for YOU, the listener, putting in the reps over the last 3 years to grow the show into a top 1% overall podcast and top 100 on the Nutrition charts.

Do you want to hear more episodes like this? Or maybe you weren't a fan? Either way, reach out on IG @witsandweights or send me a text message!

From testing and iterating with evidence-based content and being very selective in the guests we invite to always (and continuously) incorporating YOUR feedback, learn how we've built a high-quality, no-nonsense podcast for skeptics of the fitness industry who want to get results more efficiently.

I also dive into the challenges of maintaining patience and avoiding burnout, and the rewarding moments when listeners share how the show changed their life!

You'll learn how Wits & Weights started as a passion project and is growing into (one day soon) a health and fitness powerhouse, including how we reach more potential listeners like you to grow the community.

Learn why knowing your numbers is crucial (whether in podcasting or fitness) and how collaboration, networking, and word-of-mouth have helped us grow a supportive network.

Hear about our approach to monetization (without ads!) through coaching and organic growth, and the equilibrium between quality and quantity. Remember when I used to have 5 shows a week? There's a reason it's only 3 now.

Listener feedback is our compass, and you'll learn how surveys, reviews, and direct engagement shape my content, whether you are passionate about fitness, podcasting, or both.
