About things

I struggle writing "about" sections, as they are often a list of all the things we've done or are doing. I feel that societally we place way too much value in our doing. The world I want to live in is the one where we're valued for our being—for who we are regardless of our contributions to some billionaire's behemoth boat named Betty. Capitalism is a death cult, after all.Anyways, hello my name is Nōn Wels (he/him) and I'm a curious, head-in-the-clouds idealist and silly bean who loves dogs, long walks with dogs, and walks with long dogs. I'm a feely human, a podcaster and podcasting consultant, mental health advocate, writer, and book nerd who met his partner on Goodreads.I'm currently spending my time fostering dogs, podcast consulting, running a little Airbnb, working at a small pet supply store, and trying to get back into writing.Most recently, I launched a new podcast called We Can't Do It Alone. It's about helpers. Listen here. I also have a fun project called The Feely Cards coming out October 22nd—available for pre-order!

PAST & CURRENT PROJECTS

Podcast Consulting

I’ve been podcasting for over a decade now. Currently, I’m hosting the We Can’t Do It Alone podcast, a show about helpers. Before that, my mental health podcast, You, Me, Empathy, wrapped up in the summer of 2023, after more than 260 episodes, millions of downloads, and, most importantly, many nourishing and beautiful conversations with remarkable feely humans.For its entirety, nearly six years, I ran You, Me, Empathy on my own. I interviewed, recorded, edited, marketed, scheduled guests, you name it. I know how exhausting it is to run a podcast, especially when you’re first getting started. Allow me to help!I love the podcasting medium. It’s a powerful means of connection, creativity, storytelling, and you can really make it what you want—unless what you want is another white cis bro telling us that we need to cold plunge until our depression magically disappears.Over the past few years, in addition to podcasting on my own, I’ve started podcast consulting. If you’re looking to start your first podcast, I can provide guidance from figuring out why you want to start a podcast to launching your very first episode.If you need assistance with building strategy and systems around your podcast, I can help with that too. This might include how your podcast integrates with your website, social media strategy for podcasts, writing podcast show notes, interviewing techniques, reaching out to potential podcast guests, podcast marketing, and more.Lastly, if you want to hire a podcast editor to take a little weight off of your shoulders, I’m happy to do that as well!Talk soon!

If you'd like me to host an author Q&A, ideally in some magical bookish wonderland, I'm your human. If your dog needs a good snuggle, you know who to call (it's me; call me).
