196: How to Find the Right Podcasts to Guest Speak On (Even If You’re Just Starting)
If you’ve ever thought, “Where do I even find podcasts to pitch to?” — this episode is for you.
Big shows on Spotify and Apple are great… but they’re not always where your best guest opportunities are hiding. The real magic? Finding the right shows — the ones that align with your message, mission, and audience.
In this solo episode, I break down:
🎯 Why finding the right shows matters — so you don’t waste time pitching to podcasts that aren’t a fit (and so you actually want to share the episode once it airs!)
✨ How to spot alignment between your values, niche topics, and their message
🔍 The two ways to find shows: going out and finding them OR letting them come to you
🧭 My exact breadcrumb trail strategy for finding aligned, indie shows (hint: start with a podcast you already love and follow the guest trail)
🤝 How to build connections and get referrals from hosts you’ve already guested with
Plus, I share how I use my free Podcast Pitch Tracker to keep everything organized as I find new shows.
And if you want to skip the searching and fast-track your podcast tour, I’ve got 4 years of podcasting connections you can tap into. 😉
🎧 Listen to this episode to learn how to search smarter, build better connections, and book more aligned interviews.
