But what if I told you there's a deeper way to understand your ideal listener, your guests, and even yourself that goes far beyond simple demographics? In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Lola Adeyemo to dive into the powerful concept of intersectionality in content creation. This week, episode 214 of Podcasting Unlocked is about intersectionality in podcasting!
