In this episode of Relatable Wisdom, I’m joined by Jeff Revilla, a creative entrepreneur who transformed his personal hang-ups into powerful fuel for building community and innovation. Jeff’s favorite mantra — “No one cares” — may sound harsh at first, but as you’ll hear, it’s the liberating insight that helped him move past self-doubt and step onto the stage of life (and podcasting). He shares how letting go of the fear of judgment opened the door to new connections, creativity, and ultimately the launch of one of the first live podcast theaters in Pennsylvania. This conversation is packed with relatable stories, from overcoming reluctance to record his first episode to helping others break through their own barriers at PodDuty. Whether you’re facing your own internal critic or simply need a motivating push to share your voice, Jeff’s journey reminds us: most of our hang-ups are just in our own heads. Tune in for candid wisdom, practical inspiration, and a reminder that your story is worth sharing.
