I’m considering starting a podcast, even though I know the market is quite saturated. Currently, I produce a podcast that interviews nonprofits, and through the stories I've heard about the people they help—those struggling to make it day by day—I’m reminded of my own difficult experiences of being underpaid and overworked.
This inspired me to create a new podcast focused on interviewing individuals in low-wage jobs. I want to talk to people who work tirelessly for companies that don’t appreciate them, to hear how they are surviving and navigating their lives. The plan is to keep their identities and workplaces anonymous. My goal is to share these stories, to give a voice to those who are struggling, and maybe, just maybe, reach the right ears. Even if it doesn’t, it could serve as a valuable outlet for someone to express their challenges.
What do you think of this idea? I respect the community here and thought you’d be a great sounding board for this project.
