Episode 252: Anja Lordanić Mustać on podcasting in an additional language

I came across Anja and her podcast on LinkedIn because I was curious to find out what other podcast hosts are doing and to find some new content to listen to. Anja and I started talking when I posted a question about people who produce content in another language – and here we are! I hope you enjoy our conversation, and if you’re thinking about creating content in English, but you haven’t started doing it yet, Anja has some really good tips and advice for you.

We talked about:

• Anja’s podcast – “Freelance business unlocked” – and how it came about
• Anja’s language story – how English came into her life
• Why Anja decided to change her podcast language from Croatian to English, why she made the change, and how she felt about it
• Tips for dealing with imposter syndrome and procrastination
• The importance of learning to be comfortable with our voice – in general and when we’re speaking another language.

Is procrastination or imposter syndrome preventing you from starting something new? If you like, you can share something about the idea with us – it’s the first step to making it real!

Who is Anja?

If you’re here, you want to know whether it’s worth tuning in to the episode, so I’ll hopefully manage to convince you! My name is Anja Lordanić Mustać, I’m from Croatia, and I love fostering meaningful relationships with other freelancers and solopreneurs. Why is that something that comes first? Because as much as we think we’re “free” and “solo”, we cannot do this thing called business on our own.
I recently discovered that podcasting is my true business love, and I love to teach others how to finally launch and grow their podcast AND stay consistent.
As a semi-retired translator and interpreter, podcasting has been such a great way to keep on working on my language skills, communicating with people from various countries and backgrounds, and learning more about what fills them up.
