Starting a podcast is easy.Keeping it going? That’s the real challenge.

One of the biggest predictors of podcast success isn’t your gear or your guest list — it’s your motivation. And the best motivation? Doing something you genuinely love.

If you’re thinking about starting a podcast but aren’t sure what it should be about, this blog is for you.

💡 Start With Passion

What topic could you talk about for hours without getting bored?What do your friends always ask you for advice on?What stories do you love telling?

Your podcast doesn’t have to be “niche” — it has to be authentic. Whether it’s career advice, wellness, sports, weird history, or your favorite TV show — if you love it, your energy will carry your content.

🎙 Why Passion Fuels Longevity

The honeymoon phase of podcasting is real — but once you’re a few episodes in, things get harder:Editing, promoting, staying consistent… it adds up.

But if you’re creating content you care about, it’s easier to show up — even when life gets busy. Passion helps you:

Stay motivated when growth is slow
Speak with confidence and credibility
Connect deeply with your audience

📚 Turn Your Passion Into a Plan

Here’s a quick way to test your idea:

✅ Write down 10 episode ideas off the top of your head✅ Imagine recording weekly for 3 months — still excited?✅ Think of 3 people you’d love to interview or co-host with

If you pass the test, you’ve got a solid foundation.

🎥 Bonus: Record Where It Feels Real
