Start your Personal Podcast! A gentle guide to help you post your first Swell
Do it. You don't have to listen to the rest of this. Okay, for those of you who are sticking around, let's get into this. Here we go. I want to help you get over the initial hump of posting your first Swell. It's perfectly normal to hesitate a bit when trying something new, right? So I want to give you a few ideas to inspire you. Let's talk about what you should talk about. Personal podcasting is about you

Thank you for encouraging me. I just did my first swell. I'm so brand new here. I have no idea what I'm doing. But I'm so happy because I love voice, I love social audio, and it's really cool to find this, and I'm so happy to learn from you. You've been doing this for three years, so thank you for encouraging me. This is my first reply, and I just posted my first swell, so I'm feeling swell

And I just wanted to know if I'm missing something or if I was doing something inaccurately, or if there's something else I could do to boost my posts besides clicking on the invites. So if you have an answer to that, I would really appreciate it. And to be honest with you, I don't even know how I'm going to receive your answer to this message, where I would find it

Hey, Laura, thank you so much for your question. And I'm answering it right here in this thread. And it is such a great question, and people have asked it before, and we're going to do a separate swell just dedicated to this, and I promise you I will invite you to it. So thank you for this question and stay tuned, and I'll get that back to you. Thank you so much

We're not living in New York City or Boston. Anyways, I've been putting it out there to all these male companies, businesses, and they say they'll get back to me. I even met with one guy at a marina. He needed help desperately to power wash boats. How hard is that? I did it over COVID. I loved it. Put you in the zen. And I also did what do you call it?
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 1:10
Hey, Mike. When you look at the three dots next to any individual Swell and you click the word Share, one of the options is to reswell. It just means that you're saying, hey, community, I like this person. I'm going to swell what he just said and it pops it out to the followers who follow you

Hello, Adamu. Is that how you say your name? My day has not been greet so far. I've had some setbacks, but I have found a way to climb up and out of it. So hopefully the afternoon will be wonderful, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend

@UglyButterfly · 0:24
Hi, everybody. My name's Melissa. Really nice to meet y'all. Really looking forward to getting started. I have a lot to say. I've been through a lot in life. I have a lot of life experiences. Some of them not so great, some of them really wonderful. Yeah. I don't know. Y'all let me know. I could probably write a book and you wouldn't believe my story, but okay
Laura Monk
@ThriveLauraMonk · 0:57
I forget what those three options are called, but you know what I'm talking about. Where we have to toggle three options on our swells before posting or three maximum, I believe. Where do those people come from and who are they, basically, is what I'm asking. And I was just curious. I know at the very bottom it says new. I new to swell or something, but the ones more up towards the top. I just wanted to know how those people got there
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 0:59
Hey, Laura. Thank you for your question. Sorry for my late reply. I think I know your question. There's a couple of things I want to tell you about, which is there's something called the talking circle, which you see in your homepage, which are people who've been involved in conversations that you've been involved with, that you replied to or replied to you
Anupama AH
@TarotAnupama · 0:52
You. Hello swell. Thank you so much for the warm welcome and introducing me to the swell. And my name is Anupama and I'm a Taroka reader from Bangalore, India and if you are like anyone is listening anyone want to know about Taroka reading or want to take any guidance you are most welcome and you can hear my little ones voice swell chirping wise in between. Please excuse for that. Okay thank you so much and looking forward to start my podcast. Thank you

@ThriveLauraMonk · 1:32
You. Hi, I just noticed something on Swell, and I wanted to ask you, when someone clicks on our name, is anyone able to see all our current activities, such as things we've replied to in other people's Swell and conversations we've had? And the reason why I'm asking this is because I use Swell for basically my clients to get more information. But I also, on the other hand, use Swell for personal conversations to have with people and have discussions with and conversations
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 1:59
You can talk to somebody for years, literally and all they do is go to that section and they talk with you back. So that's something that I always advise people to do who want to have private conversations. But that doesn't mitigate your problem, which is do they see my whole world? And they do. So let's see if that's a toggle option in the future. It's a good question. Thank you so much Laura, for your contributions here

@sudha · 0:59
And there you can sign in with a different email or different handle and that way you can start using the app as the same app and switch between your professional and personal accounts to use it into two different modes. I hope this helps. And this is what you are looking for
Laura Monk
@ThriveLauraMonk · 1:31
And I wanted to know if I can just delete those and get those off of my profile page on my business account and start replying in my personal account instead. But in the meantime, I wanted to know if there's a way in this account if I can just swipe or delete everything that I've replied in in the Replied in section. If I can just mike delete those people. I know how to delete a conversation or a post I made
Sudha Varadarajan
@sudha · 0:24
Hey, Laura, if you delete the reply, it'll go away from the Replied in streamer. So you can go ahead and just delete the replies that you want to reply. I mean, you want to delete from your business account and they'll automatically disappear from your Replied In. It should automatically work. If it doesn't, let me know. It's a bug. We'll get it addressed, but it should work

I think I have been able to expand my perspective, learn from diverse individuals, and integrate their wisdom into my own practice as a healer and life coach. The deep connections I have formed with the guests, even from a distance, have been a source of inspiration and guiding light on my path of growth. And as I continue my journey as a healer and a life coach, I will carry the lessons and inspiration I've gained from Swell

@Shining · 0:44
Hello. Hello. Good evening. Good afternoon each and everyone who all are listening to me. Actually, I wanted to know how can we earn through swell that we post? Kindly help me out. That will be very, very kind of you. Because I'm heartbroken and I want to start swell. And then what is selling? I don't know. I want to start something so that I can distract myself from the pain I'm having in my heart, my emotions
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 0:28
Hey Shining wanted to welcome you and hoping your heart is healing. Happy that you're swell. Casting and using the platform to express yourself and tell stories and connect to others. I think you asked about earning. I'm not sure I heard that right. But there will be a monetization aspect to swell in a couple of months and we'll do a swell on that so you can learn about it. But thank you so much for being here and I hope you're feeling better
Or is it something that can be edited as well? As far as, hey, this is a quick thought, then let me just add more onto it a little later on in the day and have a little more free time. Just curious how that works. Any thoughts from anybody more than welcome and appreciate it. Thank you in the in. I look forward to hearing you guys. Bye

@City_Tech.Medic · 1:52
But what I want to know is, what can I do to better point my podcast towards the right crowd and the right individuals, if that makes sense. Any feedback is appreciated and welcomed, and I'm so happy I found this. I'm super excited, and I just hope that I can spread a little bit of knowledge and I can greet some really good feedback. Thanks
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 2:27
But in terms of going back and editing, edit, editing audio, you can't do that. Once you put the audio in, you can't edit it. That's for safety reasons. Also, we really want people to know that the audio they're hearing is not uploaded. It's not anything, it's just what it is. And it's what you've said. Now remember that when you record, you can listen to it a bunch of times and delete it and record again
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 3:32
And you send an email to your people in your life that you know, care about this, who you already know. They're not strangers, you know them and say, hey, listen, I'm setting out to create a podcast about the work I do. Thanks for listening. And here's the URL. And they hear it on a browser. They don't need the app. As you do that, they'll reply and start connecting
Sacred Lotus
@FlowerEssence · 1:05
You. I want to thank you truly from the bottom of my heart for posting that podcast. It really empowered me to move forward. I was afraid to use my voice, and I have no idea why, because I've always had the spirit within me. Tell me. Your voice is powerful. You need to use your voice. You need to speak. You'll be helping a lot of people, sending a lot of people, liberating a lot of individuals and minds

@Mukesh001 · 1:57
I work with cruise ships and I work with so many lands in France and other states in US. So I got enough exposures I thought. And when I come back to India I started struggling and after that I jump into the business and then I grow and how it go up and down that I want to share with my broadcaster people or those who are listening that one. And it's really excited excitement is there. Really entertaining is there really lesson is there really social awareness is there
Laura Monk
@ThriveLauraMonk · 4:45
And then you can hit the record button again, and it'll ask you I forget what it says exactly, but it'll essentially ask you if you want to start recording from here. Like, do you want to cut and record from this point forward? And you do? Yes. And then you can kind of dub over the part where you made a mistake, and it'll just replace it. So that's a good thing. If you make a mistake, don't worry about it
Laura Monk
@ThriveLauraMonk · 1:05
And then it'll pop up in your swell as a link. And it'll even show on the photos a photo of that article or that video or something. And I think that's really super cool. That swell. Did that. And I just found that out recently that I can copy and paste anything from the internet and attach it to my Swell, and it'll automatically become a link. So that's something to keep in mind that I think is really super cool
cam Riddle
@City_Tech.Medic · 3:16
You. Hey, thank you so much for that response. I've been working with myself with the self confidence and kind of being able to jump out of my comfort zone, but I know to be able to share my passion and my desires for what I do, that it's important to instead of be selfish, to be selfless. And maybe there's somebody that's interested in a podcast or that's interested in emergency medicine or any career path or any hobby that they are interested in doing
People who are going through a divorce need the space to be able to share what they're going through so they can get to the other side, so they can go through the healing process, through the healing journey. They need that sensitivity, they need that caring space for them to feel safe, to be able to let down their guard and be able to share their emotions. I just think that divorce is a thing that people should talk more about, even though it's not
Pamela Boston
@uniquelyHis · 0:57
You. Hi, Melissa, it's nice to meet you as well. My name is Pamela. I'm actually I'm looking forward to hearing listening to your story interacting. I guarantee you, I would probably believe your story life has a way of you putting us, or us sometimes putting ourselves in some absolutely unbelievable situations. But the fact that we make it through it or through those things is indicative to me that we're supposed to tell that story and help someone else perhaps
Darish Still
@DARISH · 1:49
And hopefully this platform will give me an opportunity to not only voice it, but to make connections with people that also have a take on some of the topics that I would be discussing, see? So thanks again. Wonderful introductory message, great introductory stream and I'm looking forward to it. Thanks
Jayne Carson
@wsjayne · 1:46
But yes, my big question is how do we post a podcast and how do we get interviews by people? I have realized last year when I got the equipment, I'm like come on, come on, let's go. And I was trying to figure out how to record, how to edit and I had one person, we did it. And of course the first recording we did were sniffling, which we can hear pretty clearly through the whole 45 minutes of it

Little bit of everything is blurred by friends that's classroom teaching about food plants, how it works, gardening ten foot form for the plan. To your health, to your beauty, to your drink, to your food, to your garden, to your healthy massage to heal yourself. Nature can heal yourself. Heal yourself by loving, giving and loving backfold. Love yourself. Love everybody. Love nature. Love everything. It's all it is in you. Thank you
Laura Monk
@ThriveLauraMonk · 3:08
So I'm thinking to myself, okay, so my posts that I'm sending in the archives aren't showing there. It's not a hashtag, but it's the at sign. It's not showing their at sign. So it seems like it's not getting to them. And I assumed that I was doing it right, but maybe I'm not doing it right
Sarah Wilson
@Sarah_Wilson · 0:32
I have a question about how to start in this app because I just downloaded and logged in so I don't know anything about it. So I don't know what to talk about in this app and what topic I should talk about. And even if the people will like my voice because you can hear my voice and tell me me that if the people going to love my voice or not
Last night. Yeah. Hey, Mike. I just tested that reswell, and it works, so I just reswelled your post. It's what? The woman that answered your post, what she said, and it works perfectly. I didn't know that either. I this is my first day on here, so I know practically zero to one about anything on here, but it was good for me to learn that, too, so thank you for asking the question generally
Shawna Barnes
@ShawnaBarnes · 0:23
Hey, Deborah, thank you for that guide. Question. How does one know if it's the top or the first? Swell post? Is it just scrolling up? I mean, it's the same color. I'm just trying to figure others. If it says at, does that tell you something? Thank you, ma'am. Bye
Deborah Pardes
@DBPardes · 0:55
Laura. Hey, Laura. Everything you described in terms of your workflow is correct. And those when you click on your private messages, those messages should be sitting there as a list or as posts inside your private messages. Sometimes people don't check their private messages. It's a little dot on the bottom that says Private. It also shows up in your notification feed. But everything you just shared with me is exactly how it works
It's like when they want to play, it's usually when I'm wanting to record, and it tends to prevent me from actually doing anything. So I'm really glad that that's something that was specifically mentioned in your Swell, and I'm really excited to be here, and I'm excited to start putting out my content. Thank you so much again. Bye
Because if it could have happened in any other way, if you could have done something differently, then those things would have happened. And so really the best advice at this point is to be kind to yourself and to really just give yourself that space. You need to grieve. Because while I've never found anybody like that, I have witnessed my grandfather dying, and it is the most hopeless thing in the world to see someone, and there's nothing that you can do

So that way I can also share ideas or things that are crossing my head, so that way I can find and connect with like minded people. Thank you for creating such different and interactive app
Good morning. It's 04:27, a.m. And I'm trying to make up my first post, see what happens

Well, I want to know that how I can post here and which type of post?
