Let’s get real for a second, y’all …  Occasionally, I’ll recommend to my clients that it’s time to rest, freshen up their podcast and strategize, and this year, I’ve decided to take my own advice! After this episode, there will be a pause in new episodes so I can have time to take some rest, strategize and produce (2 of my favorite things!).

I always say it, but I mean it: Women podcasters are my heroes! So while I’m taking this pause, I want to help you grow your platform and visibility in 2022, so I’ll be highlighting new faces every month on my socials and email.

The post Consistency & Content with Kirsten Vossler first appeared on Wildfire Creative Company.

We all have those moments after a particularly challenging season, and we look back and see the exact moment that God’s presence was there and how He went ahead of us to make that happen.

That is what the Storytellers Live podcast is all about.

In this episode of The Creative Cast, Tammy sits down with the hosts of the Storytellers Live podcast, Robyn Kown and Lindy Walker, to talk about these specific moments, the origins of their podcast and why telling your story is so important. (Unfortunately, Katie Dunn was unable to join us – but she was thoroughly missed)

On the StoryTellers Live podcast, everyday people share real and personal stories. Some stories are profound, challenging, and emotional, while others are more common and relatable, shared with honesty and humor. All of these stories reveal what God can do in our lives when we trust Him with the details.

So, let’s tackle the inexperience, fatigue, and intimidation that holds you back from growing your influence and impact

Listen in as we discuss :

• Robyn and Lindy share Storytellers Live’s origins and how each got involved.
• How did a community of live events pivot during the early stages of the pandemic?
• The moments when you know a story is meant just for you.
• Lindy shares some of the ways God has connected women through Storytellers.
