Red House Productions | Episode 24: “Chicken Little Courage—Nathalie Simper on Overcoming Fear and Sharing Your Voice”

Think you have to be fearless to start a podcast? Think again.

In today’s episode, Heidi chats with Nathalie Simper, coach of K.E. Creative and podcast co-host of The Limitless Musician, about what it really looks like to start a podcast when fear, self-doubt, and perfectionism try to get in the way.

Nathalie opens up about her first year as a podcaster—how she went from asking, “Who am I to do this?” to confidently sharing her message with the world. Together, she and Heidi explore the honest, human side of podcasting: vulnerability, courage, and the quiet bravery it takes to hit publish even when you’re scared.

You’ll hear:
• How Nathalie turned overthinking into action (and learned to move forward anyway)
• Why fear is part of the creative process—and how to work with it, not against it
• The power of collaboration in building a podcast that lasts
• How podcasting creates real community beyond the scroll
• What it means to show up authentically and still stay professional

If you’ve been dreaming about starting a podcast but feel like you’re not ready, this episode will remind you that you don’t have to have it all figured out—you just have to begin.
