The Alive Podcast Network: Helping Black voices be heard in the world of podcasting

Angel Lavish, founder of the Alive Podcast Network, amplifies Black voices, breaks barriers in media, and leads the evolution of podcasting as a platform for authentic storytelling. Together, we unpack the challenges and opportunities for Black content creators, especially around monetization, visibility, and navigating systems that often silence diverse voices. Angel also highlights how the Alive Podcast Network was built to counter those barriers by giving creators a platform designed by us and for us. Angel is helping ensure that Black stories, perspectives, and creators not only have a place to be heard but a place to thrive. If you’re a content creator looking for a home for your voice or if you just want to tap into powerful, diverse storytelling, this episode is your invitation to connect, get inspired, and be heard.
