247 - The Top Podcast Guest Mistakes and How to Avoid Them with Candace Dudley

Season #2

So you're ready to get your voice heard by new audiences through podcast guesting - let's make sure you're maximising this golden opportunity to create a long-lasting marketing tool for your business by avoiding the common mistakes that leaves so many episodes collecting digital dust in the back shelves!

Guesting on a podcast is the ultimate collaboration, a short amount of time to create content that's enjoyed for years to come, yet so many episodes are poorly executed and few ever hear about them. It's not hard to create magnetic content so in this episode we're spilling the secrets on how to succeed, and what your role is as a guest!

My guest is Candace Dudley, the cheerful host of the Better Brave podcast. Candace isn’t just a seasoned podcaster, she’s also a mum, former teacher, and someone who found her real voice - and built her business -through following one persistent nudge.

Candace now helps women step into podcasting with confidence, whether that’s launching their own show or getting booked on aligned podcasts that actually move the needle.

Here's a few questions we'll be answering when you tune into this episode:

  1. Why should you consider podcasting right now, and what makes it such a lasting investment for your business?

  2. What stops so many women from ever hitting record (and what’s the most surprising thing that might be holding you back)?

  3. How do you find and pitch yourself to podcasts that fit your business, expertise, and audience—without feeling awkward or inauthentic?

  4. What are the must-avoid mistakes and “make or break it” tips for being a memorable podcast guest?

  5. Why does the identity shift—actually calling yourself a ‘podcaster’ or ‘expert’—matter so much in building real confidence?

If you’re ready for real, actionable inspiration (plus a generous dose of honesty about the mindset wobbles and practical side of podcasting) you’re going to love this chat.

Grab your coffee, hit play, and come listen in. It could be exactly what you need to finally start sharing your story, your way!
