With LinkedIn, short-form video, newsletters, Substack and AI all competing for our attention, is there still a place for podcasting in your personal brand strategy?
In this episode of Beyond the Bio, Sophie is joined by Rachel from the Moja team to look at what’s happening in podcasting right now and why it can still be a powerful way to build your visibility, credibility and relationships. They discuss the rise of video podcasts, changing listening habits, the importance of clips and repurposed content and why download numbers aren’t always the best measure of whether your podcast is working. They also explore who should start a podcast, the mistakes that can make a new show difficult to sustain and what you need to think about before hitting record.
If you’ve been wondering whether to start a podcast, revive an old one or make more of the one you already have, this episode will help you decide what makes sense for your personal brand.

- Why podcasting is still relevant in 2026
