How To Start A Supportive Community With A Podcast - Helen King The Creator Experience podcast

What comes to your mind you hear the word "Cancer". Obviously, we all get terrified by listening to this C word.

So, today we are joined by podcast producer and host of The C word radio Helen King. At 37, Helen was diagnosed with breast cancer, and after successful treatment, she came out of it all feeling a little alone. She didn't find any relevant support groups for other young cancer survivors.

Inspired and supported by the podcast. You, me and the big C; when she was undergoing cancer treatment, Helen decided she wanted to start her creative outlet to help other young cancer survivors share their experiences. She launched The C Word Radio in Covid lockdown, and within a year, she made the finalist in the New Zealand Radio Awards.

In this episode, Helen shares how to discuss the tough topics, find the right guest for our podcast, the struggle to get listeners and the importance of a strong purpose and commitment to your content creation.

This episode is a masterclass in communication as it will teach how to be empathetic, build trust, and engage with people around you, so tap the play button and enjoy this episode.

[52:58]-How can putting yourself in the spotlight boost your podcast's success?
[56:22]- How does Helen define a good leader?

KEY INSIGHTS

A great leader is willing to let others do what they're good at.

Good leader surrounds themselves with people who compliment what their strengths are, and they can admit they can't do that thing.

We talk about why behind starting your podcast, but I want you to think about how much time you have. Do you love this topic enough that even on your worst day, you can still talk about it and love it?

I believe audio has an extraordinary power that is often overlooked. I think video is great, but the audio has a special magic.

If you think that only downloads equal success, you can't apply that to podcasting because it's an entirely different beast.

Find someone who can help you outsource so you can focus on creating more great content.
