The Wild Women Podcast Society

Podcasting can feel like you’ve been dumped in the wilderness with only a microphone and a few bears that you hope will listen to you.

But it doesn’t have to feel like that. We provide a map, compass, and community of trailblazers to help you climb up your path through the wild world of podcasting.

The Wild Women Podcast Society is a community of driven, female-identifying podcast hosts, editors, creators, producers, and marketers who want to be intentional, growth-oriented, and adventurous in their podcast journeys.

If you’re already thinking, “Why do we need a community to maximize our show’s impact?” then listen up:

Female podcasters get fewer resources, fewer partnerships, and less money than their male counterparts.

As a community, we can change that.

Enter: The Wild Women Podcast Society

Welcome to a community and support system that will help amplify your voice in a way that feels joyful and sustainable to your lifestyle.

We’re Angie and Emily (more on us in a minute). As podcasters and small business owners ourselves, we see the lack of affordable resources for women to invest in podcasts and business.

You’ve probably also wondered where the convenient, accessible opportunities to break down roadblocks and help other women grow their podcasts are hiding.

As the saying goes, ‘a rising tide lifts all ships.’ We believe deeply in the power of connection and community in spaces that have traditionally felt out of reach.

And we’d love for you to join the pack.

Weekly Discussion Threads

(always ongoing in the Slack group!)

This moderated Slack community gives participants the chance to keep connecting and continue to grow and expand on their podcasting path. We share a weekly discussion prompt for a topic relevant and timely to the podcast world so that we can continue to learn from each other every single week.

WHY: Spending just a few minutes a week contributing to and reading through written discourse keeps your podcast brain churning without adding a ton of to-do’s. Between live calls, the forum allows you to collect ideas and thoughts on your own time, share resources you find helpful, and discover AHA moments thanks to group input on the topic of the week.

Meet your partners in adventure!

Meet your secret weirdos candle connoisseurs podcast mavens, Emily and Angie! This isn’t our first podcast rodeo, and we wanna take you along for the ride.

Emily Holland

Emily always says: “you don’t have to BE serious, but you have to take yourself seriously.” As a lover of all things silliness and tomfoolery, she learned through life in the corporate world and now self-employment, that you should be able to bring your authentic self to your work. Emily’s been working with podcasting clients to help them make more money, grow their audiences, and like the process. In 2023, her clients grew 89% on average across all the metrics we care about. Pretty rad growth percentage, huh?

Angie constantly gets asked, “How do you fit in all these creative projects?!” (Ask her in the Advice Column.) She started side businesses during her decade of previous nonprofit work before eventually making the leap to full-time self-employed in 2021. Soon, she connected with Emily to work on podcast marketing together, and Emily was never scared off by Angie’s golden retriever energy. Cool!

Angie’s favorite part of podcasting is that it colorfully weaves together everything else she’s worked on, which revolves around creativity, adventure, storytelling, and female empowerment. She’s always stoked to work with people who honor those values.

With Emily’s podcasting mind and Angie’s business acumen, we’re a match made in podcast heaven to run a community that helps you achieve your goals in podcasting and beyond.
