“I’m doing a daily podcast.” (Yes, I said it out loud.)
Six months ago, I committed to something that felt impossible.
Sitting in a room surrounded by 20 keynote speakers, I blurted out "I'm doing a daily podcast."
They thought I was mad.
I thought I was mad.
Luckily, mad ideas make the best experiments.
Episode 183 of my 2025 experiment, a daily podcast called "Leanne on Demand" dropped today.
(That's the thing about making public declarations: you can't really back down).
Also, this experiment has taught me:
- The magic is in real-time capture. I love that the ideas I throw into my iPhone notes actually go somewhere (instead of dying a slow death, never to be read again).
- It's a public diary of 2025, which means in some way, I'm making every single day count.
Six months in, here are the six content themes that keep showing up:
1. Action over analysis
Get off the hesitation station and move without perfect clarity.
2. Energy and creativity
Generate your own momentum, avoid burnout, and stay lit up. Work CAN be fun. Keep it light.
3. Visibility and reputation
Not the "just-post-more" kind - but the kind that leads to better rooms, roles, and revenue.
4. Live delivery and facilitation
Whether you're leading a room, a Zoom, or a boardroom, I'll give you tangible tips to hold attention and build engagement.
5. Marketing, productising, and idea shipping
You'll get ideas on turning what you know into something people want to book or believe in.
6. The uniqueness in business
The stories in the margins: post-event voice notes, failed pitches, weird wins - and how they all shape our work.
The best part? It's become a real-time feedback loop.
Listeners text saying "that riff helped me" or "unlocked something right when I needed it."
182 episodes to go... eek!
It still feels mad, but fortunately, I've developed a rhythm. That might be tough when I spend 3 weeks trekking in Nepal later this year though haha.
---> If you've got ideas sitting in your Notes app, waiting for the "perfect time", what could your daily experiment look like?
