The Art of Leveling Up in Podcasting and Life: A Conversation with Eric Jennings

In my latest episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Eric Jennings, the mastermind behind the World XP Podcast. Today, I'm excited to share the insights and lessons from our conversation, which I believe will resonate with fellow content creators and anyone looking to level up in life.


The Genesis of World XP Podcast

Eric Jennings embarked on a journey to capture and share global stories and experiences through his podcast, aptly named the World XP Podcast. The 'XP' stands for 'experience,' a nod to the video game terminology that signifies gaining life experience and leveling up. This concept is at the heart of Eric's mission—to explore diverse narratives and learn from them, much like completing missions in a game.


Gaining Free Education Through Podcasting

Eric's podcasting journey has been nothing short of a free education. By hosting an array of guests, including video game designers, military personnel, soccer players, coaches, musicians, and professors, he has gained a wealth of knowledge. This eclectic mix of perspectives has broadened his worldview and allowed him to integrate different viewpoints into his own life philosophy.


The Highs and Lows of Content Creation

As a content creator with a YouTube channel, Eric has experienced the unpredictable nature of content performance. He shared a tale of two videos—one that soared to 12,000 views and another that fell flat. The key takeaway? Passion trumps numbers. Eric emphasizes that creating content solely for views or fame is a recipe for burnout. Instead, he advises focusing on what you love, as the numbers will then hold less power over your motivation and satisfaction.


A Warning Against Number-Chasing

Eric warns content creators about the dangers of obsessing over analytics. The algorithm can be a fickle friend, especially for those just starting. He advocates for a passion-driven approach to content creation, ensuring that the joy of the process outweighs the stress of statistics.


Connecting with Eric Jennings

For those eager to dive into the experiences shared on the World XP Podcast or explore his soccer-specific content, Eric can be found on Instagram and YouTube. He encourages direct engagement through Instagram and offers a wealth of content on his YouTube channels.
