Is podcasting still worth it in 2026 or has the window already closed?
In this episode, Cait and Jordyn chat about what podcasting actually looks like now and why so many moms feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about launching (or continuing) a show.
Together, they discuss biggest myths around podcasting, why the “old rules” no longer apply, and how podcasts are increasingly being used as legacy content and mid-funnel trust builders, not just top-of-funnel visibility tools.
This conversation is especially for moms who:
- Feel late to the podcasting game
- Are burned out by rigid content schedules
- Want deeper conversions, not just downloads
- Are craving long-form connection in a short-form world
Tune in to hear:
- Why the “is it too late to start a podcast?” question has been around for over a decade and why it’s still the wrong question
- How podcast success in 2026 looks very different than it did in 2016
- Why smaller, more intentional audiences often convert better than massive download numbers
- How podcasts fit best as a mid-funnel or conversion tool, not just a lead generator
- The danger of over-structuring your podcast and how it kills creativity and consistency
- New ways moms are breaking podcasting “rules” (mini-series, short episodes, voice-memo style recordings, and more)
- Why clarity around who your podcast is for matters more than ever
- How to use podcast episodes to pre-sell, pre-educate, and remove objections before someone ever buys
