Your voice is what makes you unique. Your voice as a writer, an artist, an activist, a creator, a human being. It is how you communicate what's inside. And there is so much inside you. You have ideas. You have opinions. You have lived experience and knowledge and context that only you can provide, having lived your unique life. You are passionate - about so many of the same things that other people are passionate about. Your point of view is valid, and unique, and valuable. Why not share it with the world? All you need is the right platform. How about a platform that doesn't involve burning the midnight oil to create the perfect 15 second video or 1 minute story? What if you didn't need expensive camera equipment (or didn't need a camera… period!). What if your phone was all the hardware you needed to start a world class podcast? What if all you really need to do… is to speak from the heart? Enter: Anchor by Spotify. The easiest way to make a podcast. Ever. No, it doesn't come with caveats. No fees either.
