Here’s what to expect from this episode:

The year 2020 brought us a lot of new things. Yes, COVID being one of them, but also lots of new podcasts. A lot of people had more time on their hands, so it was just naturally a good time to try it out. That was the case for today's guest, Jenice Lee, an educator and out-of-school time advocate, who started a podcast as a hobby but has since transitioned it to an important marketing tool for her business.

Jenice is here today to tell us about her experience starting a podcast and keeping that momentum going, how she transitioned into using it as a marketing tool for her business, and what kinds of results she's seen for her business since making that transition. Plus, she shares some really cool ways that she has extended her podcast through things like live podcasting at conferences, as well as starting a YouTube channel.

I love having people on the show to share about their experiences with podcasting. Everybody does things a little bit differently, so it's nice to get all of these different perspectives. It was so cool to talk to Jenice and hear about how something that started as a hobby has made such an impact on her business and community.
