When it comes to reinventing yourself and navigating life transitions, sometimes change doesn’t arrive with a formal invitation or even a plan. It starts as a quiet inner nudge that the path you’re on no longer fits. This week on The Change Effect, my guest Michelle Glogovac, known as “The Podcast Matchmaker” and founder of the MLG Collective, shares her remarkable story of leaving behind her career in corporate aviation to step into the unknown, follow her curiosity, and ultimately create a business (and life) aligned to her true values.

In this episode, Michelle and I discuss:

• Her journey from flying high in corporate aviation to building a podcast PR agency from the ground up.
• The realities, challenges, and joys of launching multiple podcasts—plus advice for anyone wanting to use their voice or grow their platform.
• Overcoming fear, building confidence, and why consistency (not perfection) is the secret to podcast longevity.
• The unique magic of podcasting as a tool for connection, education, and sharing stories that matter.
• The rise (and reality) of the podcasting industry, what listeners crave right now, and trends to watch for creators and change-makers.

No matter where you are on your journey through change, Michelle’s story and practical wisdom will inspire you to follow your curiosity, lean into your gifts, and step boldly into what’s next.
