Dear Reader,
Have you ever thought of creating your own podcast? Similar to blogging, this idea of creating my own podcast has been dancing through my thoughts for some time. I have always enjoyed listening to podcasts and am guilty for going down the rabbit hole. Priya Parker’s podcast, Together Apart, with the New York Times is one of my top favorites! When I started this brand in 2019, podcasts were part of my research process for discovering new contacts. You can learn so much by listening to someone speak about their journey! For the past several months, I have been guesting on podcasts regularly promoting my messaging along with the upcoming release of my first book. When my marketing strategist, Melanie, asked me if I wanted to start my own podcast my immediate answer was “yes!” and here are my reasons why I choose to add a podcast to the mix.
An opportunity to share my message in an alternate format. I was lead to the message of communication between children and adults from my own personal healing journey. I grew up in an environment where communication was lacking and realized how it was effecting my decisions and relationships. When I am speaking, I notice how I speak of my journey from an alternate perspective given the use of my voice tone. The goal of this podcast is to complement the stories and topics of the blog.
Chance to have further conversations with other podcasters. One of the things I love about guesting on podcasts is meeting so many amazing people! Each show is unique and each host allows me to shine new light on my message and book series. In creating my show I saw the opportunity have these individuals on my show and connect with them in a new way!
It felt right. When this question arose, I felt nothing but confidence when I choose to launch this podcast. I truly believe that things happen when they are supposed to. When we put our trust in fate and combine it with faith in ourselves, doors open for us. I thought about becoming an entrepreneur for years and then in 2019 it clicked. The blog was the same way. I debated it for years then in 2020 I started writing. Here I am in 2022 pulling together my first podcast episode.
The podcast is called “Feelings and Healing with Bella Lucia” and the first podcast episode is dropping on Thursday, 12/01! The format will be a combination of both solo and guest episodes. Through each topic, whether it be writing a book or family traditions, we will discuss the value of communication and the benefits identifying our feelings. I am excited to take this next step, see how it evolves, and what doors are going to open next!
Love Always,
Kristina xoxo
