Summary

Podcast Editor & Content Producer (Part-Time Contractor) About Inner Alchemy Inner Alchemy is a podcast and coaching brand for women who have done everything right and still can't explain why something feels off.

Our philosophy is simple: the power was never missing—it was only buried. We're looking for a Podcast Editor & Content Producer who can help bring these conversations to life across audio, video, YouTube, and social media. The Role This is more than a technical editing role. We're looking for someone who understands the power of storytelling and knows how to preserve authenticity while creating polished, engaging content. The ideal candidate can recognize the moments that make someone stop, think, cry, laugh, or text a friend and say, "This." You'll work closely with the host to edit weekly podcast episodes, prepare content for distribution, and identify compelling moments that can be repurposed into social content.
