21: Podcasting Walls and the Authentic Self With Dakota M. Shyft

About 6 months into podcasting many Podcasters hit a wall.
What am I doing?
Why am I doing this?
And other large, podcastery questions start haunting them.
The inevitable episode of doubt happens and then there is either podfade or a shift in content. 

This is exactly the type of episode that I heard Dakota do on his Language Learning Lounge podcast. Because Dakota and I already knew each other, I decided that instead of just listening I would reach out and try to help. Or at least, ask a lot of questions to find out why this keeps happening to lovely Podcasters like him. This is the conversation that we had.
