The Wavve Design of the Week this week brings a lot. The date and name of the show are clear at the top with a mic icon telling us it's a podcast-focused show. A photo with all the details of the guest. A picture of her product! And a call to action to Listen Now. All on a nice comforting background that relates to the idea of growth and health. There is even the podcast player image there to reinforce the idea to go listen. Pro tip: Replace the static image progress bar with an animated Wavve progress bar to draw more interest.
Awesome job!
