Reaching Abundance

Podcasting for financial professionals, business growth, content strategy, and consistency don’t require hours of work to create momentum. In this episode, I sit down with TEDx speaker and Happy Healthy Hustle podcast host Dr. Christiane Schroeter to unpack her Petite Practice Framework—a method built on small, strategic actions that create sustainable growth without overwhelm.  “I listen to what people ask me, and I have a binder next to me during client conversations where I write down the frequently asked questions and then make a podcast episode out of it.” - Dr. Christiane Schroeter  If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or unsure how to move your podcast or marketing forward without burning yourself out, this conversation will reframe how you think about consistency, funnels, and authority-building.    Why Small Actions Matter More Than Big Plans  Most high-achieving professionals don’t struggle with ideas—they struggle with execution that fits real life. Christiane shares how just 1–5 minutes of focused action can compound into meaningful business growth, especially for financial professionals balancing clients, compliance, and content creation.  You’ll hear how to:  Build momentum without perfection  Create content that actually connects with listeners  Turn podcast conversations into leads and long-term relationships  This episode gives you permission to start small—and stay strategic.    Podcast Growth & Funnel Strategy in Action  (00:02:16) Academic to Entrepreneur  (00:07:21) Petite Practice Explained  (00:09:10) Repurposing to Launch  (00:13:33) Funnel Integration  (00:17:04) Custom Coaching Approach  (00:21:45) Turning Listeners into Leads  (00:26:13) Ignoring Vanity Metrics  (00:37:01) Consistency Without Burnout    Action Steps to Strengthen Client Attraction via Your Content  If you want your podcast (or content idea) to support your business instead of draining it, start here:  Shrink the Commitment: Stop waiting for perfect conditions. Commit to short, repeatable actions that fit into your real schedule.  Build One Clear Funnel: Every episode should guide listeners toward one next step—an email list, resource, or conversation.  Create from Real Questions: Let client questions and conversations dictate your episode topics. Relevance beats creativity.  Measure Impact, Not Downloads: Focus on engagement, replies, and client conversations—not rankings or vanity metrics.  Design for Sustainability: Consistency should feel doable. If it doesn’t, your system—not your discipline—is the problem.  Designing a Podcast That Supports Your Business  This conversation is a reminder that growth doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from doing the right things consistently. Whether you’re launching a podcast, refining your message, or rebuilding momentum, small strategic moves can unlock clarity, confidence, and traction faster than you think.    Follow Dr. Christiane Schroeter:   https://doctorchristiane.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/christianeschroeter/  https://www.youtube.com/@doctor.christiane      Ready to attract more listeners?  Download my free Attraction Messaging Blueprint—it’ll help you nail intros, outros, and trailers so every episode speaks right to what your audience is searching for (and desperate to hear).  Free Download: https://podcastabundance.com/attraction-messaging-blueprint/    This podcast is edited and managed by the team at PodcastAbundance.com and we’d love to produce your podcast too!
