Your life will scale up naturally if you have the right mindset and provide massive value to your audience. Podcasting is a beautiful medium to do just that.. Statistically, the average Facebook video view is about 8 seconds long. But with podcasting, the average episode is listened to 80% of the way through. If you can pour into these listeners at a high level, they will reciprocate and invest in you.

Growth is not guaranteed, but you can push fate in your favor.
