I have been podcasting for four years and learnt from the ground up. In that time I have won and been shortlisted for prestigious podcast awards, been a guest on other people's shows, attended many podcast-specific conferences in the UK and US, and had the privilege of talking to industry experts for a podcast course that teaches other podcasters and listeners how to benefit from and implement the latest Podcasting 2.0 technologies.

Please note, I will NOT tell you how to have a chart-topping show in your first week, nor how to pitch to sponsors.

I will act as a mentor whom you can run your ideas and questions past. The decisions you make with the knowledge you gain are all your own.

I've just finished my 'Podcast Start-up Sanity Check' with Claire Waite Brown.
Not being very tech-savvy, I started with trepidation and an hour later, I am all guns blazing with confidence!
Claire is great at de-mystifying the podcast world. Her enthusiasm is infectious, and unlike many experts, she is great at dropping the jargon and explaining things so that even I could understand.

Juliet Sargeant

I had one of Claire's 1 hour podcasting chats, and it was so useful. She knows so much about starting a podcast - we discussed editing, hosting, marketing and networking and she gave me all sorts of tips and suggestions. If you're thinking of starting a podcast, book a podcasting chat!

Nina Lenton

Had a fantastic “what to think about before you embark on a podcasting journey” type of mentoring session with Claire. Super tips and guidance about things I’d never have thought of or even known I needed to think of. I’m inspired to explore more, using the links and follow up details Claire gave me. Would definitely encourage anyone else thinking of starting a podcast to sign up for a friendly, mentoring-style reality check with Claire!!

Claire spent some time sharing her knowledge and expertise as we support Anne Wafula Strike in preparing to launch her "Enabled Voices" podcast in the months ahead.
Claire was so helpful and so clear in her explanations it has been invaluable.
Thank you so much.

Janine Birtwistle

Claire really knows her stuff! She recently delivered a talk for our podcast community MIC's Podcast Club. Claire was detailed, approachable and super helpful. She's also a delight to work with.
