			<content:encoded><![CDATA[What is holding you back from starting your own podcast?  Are you afraid you don&#8217;t have anything to say? Do you hate the way you sound? Are you technologically challenged and don&#8217;t think you can figure out how to make it work?
Whatever it is, there is truly no excuse for putting it off any longer!! If you are passionate enough about something, you should be able to find something to say about it! It doesn&#8217;t matter how you sound &#8230; if what you have to say is important enough, people will listen. And over time, your speaking skills will naturally improve. Lastly, if you need help setting up a podcast, picking out the right equipment, or just making it all work the way it should, why not find someone who can help?
If you&#8217;re just starting out, don&#8217;t worry about getting everything perfect the first time &#8230; just DO IT!!  You will get better over time and the quality of your podcast will naturally improve, along with your speaking skills.
I am getting ready to launch a weekly podcast on this very website (look for the first episode next week) &#8230; here are some of my podcasting tips:

If you haven&#8217;t done so already, setup a Wordpress blog and install the Podpress plugin.
Invest in a decent, yet affordable, quality microphone (you really don&#8217;t have to spend more than $20-30!!)
Use Audacity to record your audio.
