women in podcasting

"I raise up my voice -- not so I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard."

 --Malala Yousafzai

Welcome back to T&T, where we are oh-so passionate about fellow podcasting family especially the ones Amplifying Unheard Voices like Bethany Hawkins is! On today's episode, we have a remarkable guest who has dedicated her life to ensuring that historically underrepresented voices are heard. Bethany Hawkins, the CEO and Founder of Crackers In Soup, joins us to share her inspiring journey from a corporate career spanning over 18 years to becoming a podcasting powerhouse. Her story is a testament to the incredible impact one person can make when they decide to empower others through podcasting. This is a powerful convo that shows you making pivot just might be the most important step you ever take and to be ready, because the perfect journey is filled with imperfection. Even the pro’s “have days”, so handle all challenges with grace like Bethany does, because every step (even the missteps) are a critical part of the journey.

Highlights:

Amplifying Underrepresented Voices. The power of podcasting. Representation and holding or clearing space. Taking the mic. Crackers in soup. The imperfect journey. Our children and their safety. The corporate world. Make a pivot and/or taking the leap. Following your heart. Podcasting and the hustle. Women of color leading.

Bethany Hawkins:

Bethany Hawkins is the CEO and Founder of Crackers In Soup.  Being a black woman who worked in corporate for over 18 years, she knows what it is like to not be heard.  So...she decided to create a company that ensures all historically underrepresented voices are heard.

Since its inception, Crackers In Soup has worked on over 80 podcasts from creating cover art to helping women create their podcast vision through launches, podcast management, consultations, etc. She has worked on podcasts that are award nominated, won awards (including her own), podcasts that have 3 million listeners and one podcast she worked on was featured in a Princeton course. 

Sharing her expertise on summits, such as Podfest, Afros & Audio, Podcast Editor Academy to name a few, she has been coined a "Thought Leader" but still blushes and claps in excitement when someone invites her to speak! Believing that sharing knowledge is the only way to help us create generational wealth, Bethany is now sharing what she has learned in her decades of business experience and her podcasting knowledge in a mentorship and coaching program for podcast service providers.

There’s been a little bit of a Groundhog’s Day (the movie) vibe to the stories Elizabeth’s been telling about herself to herself and, finally she’s calling it out. Was she truly still a caterpillar stuck in the “goo phase” before she would emerge a butterfly, as she kept insisting? Or had she actually entered her butterfly phase and the limiting story was BS? I bet you know the answer but tune in for this week’s episode anyway. She’s got some thoughts.

Have you thought about using events to monetize your podcast?

In this episode of the Women in Podcasting Show, Jennifer Henczel talks about the top 3 rules about event planning for podcasters and solopreneurs.

Events can be a magical experience for everyone, when done properly. As everything has fully opened up after the pandemic and people are trying to add events as a revenue stream again, I’m seeing a lot of missteps. It’s unfortunate, because there a lot of talented people with a lot of wisdom to share, and when they fall into any one of those traps, people get discouraged, disappointed or even hurt, unnecessarily. It’s avoidable.

If you’re thinking of using events to monetize your podcast, for example workshops, presentations, networking meetups, summits, conferences, tradeshows, or retreats centered around your message, you must know these 3 Top Rules of Event Planning…

First, just so you know, I have planned and promoted over 600 events of all sizes from small meetups to large conferences. No, I didn’t have an event company, per se. It was just one of multiple streams of income I developed to promote my business. I’ve been involved in many events as a speaker many online summits and collaborations. And as an events organizer. I’ve done events through government, corporate and non-profits gigs, and of course my own private events, as well as through a large business network that I founded (and sold a few years ago). So, I know a thing or two about events.

Here are 3 rules every podcaster and solopreneur needs to know before adding events as a stream of income...

Find all the list and all the links mentioned in this episode at womeninpodcasting.show 

In this episode of the Women in Podcasting Show, meet Francelyn Devarie, Host of the Life with Francy podcast.

We are thrilled that Francy is leader in our Women in Podcasting community. Her joyful approach and enthusiasm for podcasting is contagious.

Francy is a woman on a mission to be a voice in the mental health community, with a dream to help others see the light at the end of the tunnel. A woman who wants to help others find their purpose, while she is on the journey of figuring it out for herself.

Originally from the beautiful island of Puerto Rico, she grew up with lots of love. As a teenager she moved to the United States and through many challenges held onto the hope that something better would come one day. Now, she shares her self development strategies to help others. She loves having deep conversations about life and learning.

This week's episode will be a departure from my regular format. I was able to host a super fun panel at the NAMM show on Friday, 4/14 and this is the recording of said panel. I was joined by Laura B. Whitmore, founder of the Women's International Music Network and She Rocks Awards which you've hear me talk so much about, Natalie Morrison of D'Addario, independent musician  Steph Lamond and Sacramento's 98 Rock host and podcaster Myki Angeline. We talked about a ton of podcasting tips, pitfalls and joys and I hope you can take a listen and giggle along. 

I end the episode like I did last episode, with Pretend, which I released last Friday.

Special Edition: 4 episode of Season 6 (part 1 of 2)

Brace yourself for a special edition of ESC True Crime Edition. Get your drink of choice ready it’s going to be an interesting episode. 

The ladies catch up as usual and discuss all the craziness happening in their lives. Mari’s little escape artist (Tokyo and Berlin) decide to go an explore the neighborhood alone!! Liz celebrates her birthday by getting a naked kitty…yikes!! Zuly has a little too much to drink at dinner  and by the end of the night is looking for “JUAaaan” in the porcelain throne. 

Zuly takes the lead on this episode and discuss the high profile case of Woody Allen and Mia Farrow. The Allen v. Farrow case takes place in 1992 when seven year old Dylan Farrow, Woody’s adopted daughter confesses to her mother Mia of inappropriate behavior at the hands of Woody. This two part episode will leave you with your mouth open. The case takes many unexpected turns with lies, deceptions, abuse, and control of power.  This high society of elites show no mercy to a child that was repeatedly failed by the very adults that should have protected her, and to make matters worst our broken justice system only proves that those in power can sway the law. 

Zuly based most of her research on the HBO true crime documentary television miniseries directed by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering. And the Allen v. Farrow podcast.

Listen in to see what the ladies have concluded and if you agree.
