The Build & Launch Your Podcast 4-Week Intensive training was awesome! The provision of pre-work assignments gave me the info and experience to come to each session with enough knowledge to actively participate in discussions and to ask meaningful questions. Attending certainly prepared my co-host and me to launch our podcast with confidence. If you’re considering becoming a podcaster, need to expand your audience, or acquire more podcasting tools, enroll in Leah M. Forney’s 4-week intensive!

What can I say about Queen Leah M. Forney? She is AMAZING! I took her 3-Day Start, Build, & Grow Your Podcast Workshop followed by her 4-Week Build & Launch Your Podcast Intensive. Leah taught me everything I needed to know about podcasting even how to use the technology. She continues to support me on my podcasting journey. I highly recommend her and her services. Because of her guidance, I am officially a podcaster. Thank you Queen!
If you ever had a thought to start a podcast, gone ahead and do it. But before you start, gone and head over to Leah M. Forney's website and sign up for the 3 day how to start a podcast workshop. You see I had been seeing her post about doing a 3 day podcasting workshop on Facebook and it peeked my interest. I prayed about it and the Lord told me to sign up for it, so I did. The 3 day workshop was very detailed and Leah taught everything she presented with so much enthusiasm. You could tell that she loves what she does. So at the end of the workshop, Leah let us know that she was doing a 4 week intensive. And I definitely was on board because I locked in my spot that night. While waiting for the intensive to start Leah would send out "homework" for us to do to get the wheels to turning in our heads. And it worked. By the time we started I had already had my podcast name and knew how I wanted my cover art to look like. And I was so excited to learn the next steps. The 4 week intensive was more in depth than the 3 day workshop. And I was loving it. By the time the intensive was over I was heading towards my launch date. I am a witness when I tell you that when you follow everything Leah is teaching you. You will launch without a problem. In just two weeks from my launch date, I had 20 plays and my podcast was casting from 15 different platforms and is being casted on international platforms in India and Italy. All of this is due to the excellent teaching of Leah M Forney. Once she gives you the nuggets, go and do the work. Trust me you will NOT fail. Leah M. Forney is THE BEST COACH EVER!!!
