Tips & Tricks for Subscribing *Your* Way
What initially drew me to Substack as my podcast hosting provider, is the fact that listeners only need an email to subscribe.
Period.
No specific app or even smart phone required: simply receive an email to your inbox, to leverage, set aside, or disregard as you wish.
Piece of cake.
Make that tres leches cake with colorful fruit on top, and words written in frosting which say, “At last!!!”
In any event, the simplicity of email enrollment was Substack’s initial draw.
Next comes the fact that anyone can still view it via iTunes, Spottify, or the alternative podcast player of their choosing. That said, many people (myself included) have discovered a deep appreciation for the numerous unique voices and niche podcasting topics that they never would have encountered in a million years without Substack.
Yet, real talk?
For me, the Substack app’s strength also feels like its weakness—at least, if you accept all options it presents upon initial signup, by default.
Substack will nudge-to-strong-arm you to try out a wide range of podcasts, with a slew of push notification options per publication. Given a shot, they may introduce you to all manner of delightful, intriguing, and specialized content . . . yet also feel like “too much,” when all you wanted to do was access *one* podcast. Or even try out only one new subscription at a time.
Therefore, please feel free to uncheck or disregard options for extra subscriptions and push notifications to your heart’s content.
Yes, that also applies to Courageous Calm. The objective here is to help you find greater focus—not overwhelm you with more demands.
How to share the publication
On Instagram, I only post the link to the most recent post—not the whole publication. It would be the greatest honor if you were to share any posts or the entire podcast with a friend or loved one. To share, simply click the button below:
Or use the QR code:
If you want, DM me after you shoot it off . . . though not expected, you’d receive a hearty thank you for your effort! Worth more than money, stock, or eye-on-the-future NFTs, word of mouth (especially the literal kind!) ranks amongst the most impactful and meaningful gifts a listener can give.
How to *Directly* Reach Me
Please, don’t be shy! Send a DM anytime:
