Health and life podcast is a platform where people can learn how to live a healthy life and feel more confident about themselves. People can learn about health, wellness, and life lessons daily from this podcast. I am passionate about empowering people to lead healthier lives that they can be proud of.

My recent episode discussed how to stay motivated. I used a soft music track with familiar sounds such as a cup of water being poured into it and stirring it. This is because, as a tea lover, I find those sounds to be soothing. The listener may feel more relaxed and calm after listening to it. Along with the music and those familiar sounds, I incorporated a calming voice to introduce the episode title, letting the listener know what to expect. Listeners who want to relax and feel at ease will find this podcast helpful.

The podcast Parenting with love is a series designed to reach first time parents, providing them with some do’s and don’t as well as milestones throughout their children’s development. This podcast is designed for anyone but does target first time parents. This podcast will have guest speakers often that are parents that have gone through these stages and will have some professional guest speakers as well to help encourage parents as they approach the different phases of parenting and childhood.

In this podcast I have a baby and their parents laughing for sound effects, a soda can being opened in the background, some music, and voice (spoken word). The purpose of these chosen elements is to open up the podcast with laughter to give a big hint what the episode will be about. Raising children is difficult and fun and sometimes you just need to pop open a soda and relax.

A Hundred Acres of Memories is a podcast in which we read through a chapter A.A. Milne’s 1926 classic novel Winnie-the-Pooh a week and spend time discussing how the themes relate to our lives. Children’s stories have had an undeniable effect on the world we live in today, and by speaking on its impact in our lives, we begin to see a fuller picture of the world.

Through the use of GarageBand and FreeSound, I positioned sound clips in this podcast to add a calm and sentimental feeling to the post. The sounds of the paper flipping and the cassette player flicking on to play the theme music are to simulate the feeling of reading a favorite book on a rainy day. The music I chose has a dreamy fantasy feeling, in order to fully capture the vibe of the Hundred Acre Woods.

My podcast, Scrapbooking with Sheryl, would air weekly. I would give tips on scrapbooking and ideas to save your treasured memories for generations to come. We would discuss appropriate materials to use and how to use them. We would discuss page layouts and what makes a good scrapbook.

My podcast opens with the sound of a camera shutter and someone cutting paper. The music I selected begins and I introduce the podcast. My music is upbeat and felt like it was “crafty” sounding.
