#100: My Story and Reflecting on 100 Episodes of Creative Elements

This week marks the 100th episode of Creative Elements! That's 100 unique interviews (and 87 unique elements) in just over two years. In March of this year, 2022, the show crossed 1,000,000 all-time downloads! And it gets about 40,000 downloads each and every month. It’s been featured in Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Pocket Casts, Castbox, Castro, and more. The success this show has had and continues to build is all because of YOU. You listening, supporting, and sharing the show.  We have nearly 250 five-star reviews on Apple Podcasts and nearly 50 five-star reviews on Spotify! Over the last two years, a lot of listeners have asked to hear more of my story. For 100 episodes, I’ve put the spotlight on other creators. Those interviews have done a LOT to inform the decisions I’m making for my own creator business! And as a result, the last two years have been huge for the growth of my business. So in this episode, we talk about why I love podcasting, where the idea for Creative Elements came from, how I’m structuring my business today, some of the most memorable guests in the first 100 episodes, and a special surprise from YOU at the end.
