I didn't want to be too greedy because we were looking for favours, so I started asking for just one podcast. Luckily, I found our host is Sinead who supported me with all the background stuff as to how to set it up, what platform to use, how to get it out there. My job was is to find the stories, find the guests, and make sure they're happy sharing their story.<br>Fionnuala Murphy speaking about how she got started.</p><p>It's really important to us that people are at ease, because we're asking them to share a very vulnerable time in their lives, be it currently or in the past. They need time to consider it. Time to think about it. Time to think about how they want to frame things and how much they're willing to share.<br>Fionnuala Muphy on how she gets more by preparing podcast guests well. </p><p>For me, it was very much about the mechanics of it. How am I going to get this across the line? Who can work with us? Who knows what they're doing? Who can we trust? For somebody else, I would say focus on the content and what is it that you want to say.<br>Fionnuala Murphy on </p><p>KEYWORDS<br>#podcast # awardwinners, #evergreen #content #cancer #notforprofit #dustpod #brands</p>
