Courtney Elmer
Dubbed 'The Podcast Whisperer' by CEO Weekly, Courtney Elmer is a Forbes-featured Top 1% podcast host and the industry-leading authority on the psychology behind what makes podcasts succeed (or fail). Driving industry evolution by merging the science of human behavior with podcasting, Courtney and her team have helped over 60+ business owners, founders, and experts launch Top 100 shows with bingeworthy content that converts listeners into clients.
As the host of the globally-ranked show, "Insider Secrets to a Top 100 Podcast," and the founder of PodLaunch®, Courtney's expertise has been sought by leaders from Forbes, Fast Company, PopSugar, Kajabi, and more. She is also a sought-after speaker on podcast psychology and marketing at conferences like Podcast Movement and PodFest Global.
After almost permanently losing her voice to thyroid cancer in her twenties, Courtney turned adversity into advocacy, dedicating her life to empowering others to use their voices for meaningful change. Beyond the mic Courtney calls New Orleans home, where she dodges the occasional parade float and enjoys life with her husband and their son — a surprise miracle following her cancer treatments.
