I’m thrilled to share the latest episode of "Podcast Host Army" with you. This time, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dave Gulas, the brilliant mind behind "Beyond Fulfillment Beyond the Spotlight." Dave’s journey from startup founder to podcast host is nothing short of inspiring, and I can’t wait for you to hear all about it.

Here are some of the key takeaways from our conversation:

- **From Zero to Podcast Hero**: Dave started his podcast journey with zero knowledge about podcasting. With the help of his marketing team, he bootstrapped the process and got his show up and running in just 30 days!

- **Overcoming Fear**: We all know the fear and analysis paralysis that comes with starting something new. Dave shares how he overcame these barriers by focusing on the importance of letting people know who you are and the power of momentum.

- **Consistency is Key**: Did you know that publishing more than 22 episodes puts you in the top 1% of podcasters globally? Dave’s journey to his 50th episode is a testament to the power of consistency and perseverance.

- **Leverage Your Strengths**: One of the greatest lessons Dave learned is to double down on his strengths and outsource tasks that aren’t his forte. This principle has been crucial in his podcasting success.

- **First Outsourced Task**: Curious about the first task Dave outsourced? It was back-end editing, which allowed him to focus on honing his interviewing skills.

Dave’s story is packed with valuable insights and practical advice for anyone looking to start or grow their podcast. Whether you’re a seasoned podcaster or just getting started, there’s something in this episode for you.

We're going to go through a list just a list of mistakes that I have made and I've seen 100 of other podcast hosts make in their podcasting career But the biggest mistake is not sticking with it right I've been doing this for probably 8 years built 25 shows sold one I've done about 2500 interviews I've set up shows for other people that have hit top of charts and What I've seen happen is they quit too soon Alex Mosey says if you upload 22 episodes If you do 22 episodes you're amongst the top one percent of podcasters globally 22 episodes Most people quit too soon
