   Hi, I am Mike, creator of the Wellness and Tech Podcast and based in the UK.
   Given that this is my first post and a new forum, feel free admins if we need to change this as I am guessing what to include but want to also use this correctly. So I am new to podcasting having been doing this for about 8 months now apart from a brief break.
   Just about to make a more conscious effort and try to grow my audience using social media , mainly a mastodon and blue sky. So just wanted to introduce myself while I deal with the imposter syndrome that comes sometimes, while researching my next few episodes. I’m on Spotify and Apple as well as a few other distribution platforms, but am still undecided about YouTube. It’s easier for me personally to keep audio only, and although I could convert my files to audio I’m reluctant to do so given that frankly, there’s nothing for people to see. I don’t really want my face showing and am happy with audio only. Even though I admit I could be limiting myself given that most things are on YouTube it seems.
   So here’s the plug:
   The wellness and tech podcast can be found where ever you get your podcasts. Increasing my social posts next week when episode 17 comes out.

   Hi, Mike. You matter, brother. Glad you're here and putting an effort for yourself to make content again and do something good. I, too, struggle with imposter syndrome. Right there with you.
