What does 15 years of podcasting really teach you?
In this episode, I sit down with Audrey TechDiva Wiggins, host of Tech Diva Biz Talks, to talk about her long journey in podcasting, branding, business, technology, and staying creative through every stage of the process. Audrey started back in 2010 with a web TV-style show called Make Something Happen.tv, and over the years, her work evolved into a focused podcast about business, branding, marketing, and technology.
Tune in for an honest, fun, and practical conversation about podcasting for the long run.
