It’s officially July, everyone! To all my U.S. readers, I hope you had a wonderful July 4th, whether you celebrated in a traditional way or by hiding out in air conditioning (hope it was a good time, either way). To everyone else around the world, I hope you had a restful weekend.
We’re back with another issue. A gentle reminder to all my readers or occasional stopper-bys: make sure to read carefully who the podcaster is looking for as guests and what their podcast is about. If you or a client isn’t a fit, best not to pitch “hoping for the best.” Also, because today’s issue follows right after a US holiday, be mindful of your follow-ups for any U.S.-based podcasters. Try not to check in too soon or aggressively, especially on a Monday.

Guests Who Have Built a Life That Makes Others Blink
Julie May, host of Ridiculously YouJu, is “looking for people who have built a life that makes other people blink twice.” Or in other words, “If your life makes people say, ‘Wait, you actually do that?’ we want you.”
An important note, “If your main identity is life coach, mindset coach, business coach, trauma coach, relationship coach, leadership coach, manifestation coach, or ‘I left corporate and now I help others leave corporate’ coach, this is probably not the right guest call.” However, “That said, if you are a coach AND you also live a truly unusual, specific, bold, immersive, or ridiculous life, different conversation.”
