Podcast Guest Prep Guide
Thank you for joining me on She Says It! I’m excited to share your story and conversation with our audience. My goal is to create a relaxed, thoughtful space where we can explore your experiences, insights, and perspectives in a way that feels authentic to you.
Before the Interview
Review the Interview Outline
I’ll send a list of discussion topics and questions beforehand. These aren’t meant to be rigid—they simply help guide our conversation.
Test Your Technology
For the best audio quality, please:
Use headphones or earbuds if possible
Record in a quiet space
Close unnecessary apps and browser tabs
Check your internet connection before we begin
My Interview Process
Step 1: Research & Preparation
Before recording, I spend time reviewing your work, website, social media, and any information you’ve shared so I can ask thoughtful questions and create a meaningful conversation.
Step 2: Conversation Design
I create a custom interview outline based on:
Your story
Your expertise
Topics that will resonate with listeners
Opportunities for authentic discussion
Step 3: Recording Day
Our conversation is designed to feel natural—not scripted. We’ll begin with a few easy questions to settle in before diving deeper into your experiences, ideas, and insights.
Please remember, you will be recorded and the recording will be used on Spotify.
Step 4: Editing & Production
After recording, I edit the episode for clarity, pacing, and listener experience while preserving the authenticity of our conversation.
Step 5: Promotion
Once the episode is complete, you’ll receive:
Your Spotify episode link
A collab post on Instagram once the episode goes live on Wednesday at 9 am PST
Continuous promotion on She Says It (includes newsletters and social media posts)
What Makes a Great Conversation?
The best podcast moments happen when guests:
Share real stories
Speak from personal experience
Offer lessons you’ve learned
Allow space for honesty and reflection
You don’t need perfect answers. You just need to show up as yourself.
Recording Day Checklist
✓ Quiet recording space
✓ Headphones or earbuds
✓ Water nearby
✓ Strong internet connection
✓ A few minutes to settle in before we start
