Jana Hocking pulls back the curtain on what it’s really like to build a career out of your personal life. As a dating and relationship expert, columnist and podcast host, Jana has made a name for herself by sharing the details most people keep private from dating stories to sex, relationships and everything in between.

In this episode of Behind the Mic, Jana opens up about the reality of modern dating, including why being single in a city like Sydney can be harder than it looks, and what people are really experiencing behind the apps and profiles.

She also discusses the pressure of putting your personal life out there publicly, how she decides what to share and what to keep private, and where the line sits between being open and over-sharing.

Jana reflects on the attention, judgment and expectations that come with her content, and how she navigates an audience that feels invested in her personal life while still protecting her own boundaries.

Honest, funny and refreshingly candid, this conversation explores the business of vulnerability, the realities of dating in today’s world, and what happens when your life becomes your content.

Whether you’re interested in relationships, podcasting, or the reality of building a personal brand, this episode offers insight, laughs and a very real look behind the mic.

Behind the Mic with Mike E (Mike Etheridge) is the podcast where Australia’s biggest podcast and audio creators reveal who they really are.

These aren’t promo interviews. They’re honest, relaxed and often surprisingly personal conversations about career pivots, pressure, ego, burnout, ambition, personal life, relationships and what it really takes to build an audience in audio today.

It’s about the person behind the brand. The doubts, the risks, the reinventions and the moments that changed everything. After more than 14 years in breakfast radio (Mike E & Emma) and still deep in the audio game, Mike E understands the egos, expectations and everything in between. That insider perspective makes for conversations that are raw, revealing and unfiltered.

Whether you’re chasing your own goals, curious about the people behind the voices you hear every day, or just love honest conversation, Behind the Mic dives into the human side of success, ambition and resilience.

Real conversations. No scripts. Just the truth behind the mic.
