THE STORY

"My mother, a published author, wanted to start a Telugu short stories podcast. She was overwhelmed by editing, transcripts, and where to even begin."

That's why I built PodStart—to remove the technical barriers so people with stories can focus on telling them. Whether you're an elder preserving family history, a teacher sharing wisdom, or a writer finding a new audience, tech shouldn't stand in your way.

I've spent a decade helping ideas find their audiences across 80+ emerging markets. PodStart is my way of doing that for storytellers everywhere.
