In this podcast, we talk to creators and creatives to learn more about their journey to authenticity, how they found the courage to share their voice and point of view, and how we can overcome the everyday challenges of uncovering and sharing our unique and authentic voice.

Episode 11: Featuring Paul Gowder of PowWows.com & PaulGowder.com
In this episode, I had the pleasure of talking with me friend Paul Gowder, founder of PowWows.com, an online community dedicated to celebrating Native American arts and culture for over 25 years. Paul takes us on his journey of building an incredible community and navigating the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. From starting PowWows.com in 1996 as a passion project to growing it into a thriving business while working full time, Paul shares the secrets to his success and the lessons he’s learned along the way.
Paul dives into the power of live streaming to connect people globally, fostering a positive and welcoming online community, and handling the challenges of negativity and trolls online. He offers valuable insights on how authenticity and vulnerability can create meaningful connections, while also sharing his strategies for building an engaged community through email marketing and personal engagement.
Whether you're a creator, entrepreneur, or simply looking to engage more effectively with your audience, Paul’s advice is practical and inspiring. He also touches on the impact of social media on younger generations and shares his thoughts on what makes a nurturing community, inspired by his favorite Star Wars character, Leia.
