Ossa Academy is here! This free podcast accelerator program aims to close the gender gap in podcasting — as currently, only 21% of top-charting podcasts feature a woman host. Ossa Academy’s mission is to help women accelerate the growth and monetization of their podcasts in order to increase the visibility and influence of women in the podcast industry.
The Ossa Academy free podcast accelerator is designed for experienced women podcasters who are committed to up-leveling every aspect of their podcast experience. Highly motivated and dedicated women in podcasting should apply if they are ready to get clear on their brand assets, analytics, growth strategies, community efforts, and more.
This accelerator will run for 7 weeks from June 17, 2021 to August 2, 2021 with virtual speaker sessions, panels, and breakout rooms. Participants will learn from industry experts from companies including GoodPods, Podchaser, Chartable, Patreon, She Podcasts, and more:
Featured Speakers:

JJ Ramberg, Co-founder of GoodPods.

Karo Chakhlasyan, Chief Operating Officer at Chartable.

Sandy Thompson, Partner at Fixt Biz.

Alban Brooke, Head of Marketing at Buzzsprout.
Networking Opportunities
In addition to these expert panel discussions, participants in the Ossa Academy free accelerator program will be split into smaller podcaster groups for feedback, collaboration, and accountability each week. These groups will be lead by expert mentors and Ossa team members to facilitate growth and learning. Outside perspectives and support are always helpful when trying to expand your reach as a podcaster.
