20 Things I Learned in 20 Years of Creating Content

Video Description

May 25, 2005. I launched my very first podcast—Pacific Coast Hellway. Within months, the show got syndicated on Sirius Satellite Radio and helped launch my career in voice-over. It ran for 500 episodes and opened a ton of doors for me professionally. All because I read about podcasting in an article in the June 2005 issue of Macworld Magazine. Now, 20 years later, I’m sharing 20 things I’ve learned about content, creativity, and survival in a world where content empires rise—and fall—on shifting sand. Whether you're a podcaster, YouTuber, VO artist, or just starting your journey, these lessons are the kind of truths you only earn through experience. Some will challenge you. Some will reassure you. All of them are real. 👂 What’s the most important thing you’ve learned doing content?
