Leadership Podcast "The Action Catalyst" Exceeds One Million Downloads

 Some podcasts make you think. Some make you act. The Action Catalyst podcast is in the "it can do both" category.

The Action Catalyst describes its podcast this way: "Since 2013, The Action Catalyst podcast has helped thousands of listeners, leaders and innovators in all spaces, uncover their inspiration! The Action Catalyst has delivered hundreds of episodes, each providing valuable insights that YOU can use to overcome setbacks, defeat mediocrity, and reach your goals in life, all packaged in a brisk format, perfect for the on-the-go listening demanded of today’s hectic schedules.

The show lives up to its hyperbole. Each episode is a deep dive into the mind of some of the nation’s top thought leaders and experts, who share meaningful tips and practical, actionable advice to help you smash through complacency, hit the next level, and achieve more in your business, sales, or personal relationships.

In a departure from the normal large podcast network ownership, this podcast is produced by Southwestern Family of Companies, one of the largest and oldest privately held companies in Tennessee, and hosted by Adam Outland, elite-level executive coach and Partner for Southwestern Consulting, and a youth coach focused on developing the next generation as a supporter of the Kindness for Kids Foundation, along with Stephanie Maas.


The Action Catalyst just made a big announcement for any podcast. It has just crossed the million download mark in November. That's an impressive number, especially for a podcast not affiliated with one of the major podcast networks like Spotify or iHeart.

The Action Catalyst has delivered hundreds of episodes, each providing valuable insights to help everyone from C-Suite leaders to aspiring entrepreneurs overcome setbacks, defeat mediocrity, and reach your goals in life, all packaged in a brisk format, perfect for the on-the-go listening demanded of today’s hectic schedules.

Along the way, the program has been named to numerous top podcast lists from the likes of Inc, Entrepreneur, and Business Insider, and attracted top guests like Jordan Harbinger, John Lee Dumas, Chip Gaines, Dean Koontz, Adam Grant, Cal Newport, Jack Canfield, Ken Blanchard, Dave Ramsey, and Stedman Graham.

Together with "Let's Talk Legacy", "The Talent Trade", and a new podcast, "The Growth Workshop" (coming in 2024), "The Action Catalyst" rounds out the Southwestern Family of Podcasts. The network is built on four foundational goals. To Entertain the listener. To Educate the listener. To Empower the listener to achieve whatever goals they have for themselves. And to Elevate unique stories of success, overcoming adversity, and learning to adapt in an ever-changing world. If all 4 of those goals are met, then we are truly creating programming that helps the listener Excel.

The podcast's most recent episode features
Alysia Silberg, who is a leading Silicon Valley venture capitalist and CEO / General Partner of the investment firm Street Global. In the episode, Silberg shares the story of making her way from Africa to Canada by way of Hollywood, why even a bullet couldn’t stop her, and chats about getting superpowers from a pair of pink roller skates, using AI to be big where you feel small, geeking out over DaVinci, and why being “unemployable” doesn’t make you…unemployable.
