EO Fire (Business)
John Lee Dumas

When I first listened to Entrepreneur on Fire I didn’t like it. But JLD (John Lee Dumas) grew on me—he has an extremely energetic personality. What’s unique about this podcast, though, is that he has a new show every day of the week and he’s been doing it for 1,220 days straight! How amazing is that? John Lee interviews a wide range of guests and he doesn’t gloss over the struggles that business owners encounter along the way to building a profitable business. I love when he asks “What was your worst entrepreneurial moment to date?” It’s inspiring to hear how they embraced and overcame the challenges they were up against. Want to start your own podcast? He has a free course to get you started! [SUBSCRIBE on iTunes]

I started the Wayfaring Wanderer blog back in 2007 and I’ve been following Darren online for the last decade because his blogs are a wealth of information.

What I didn’t realize, though, was how entertaining it would be to listen to his accent. [SUBSCRIBE on iTunes]

I started listening to this podcast after I read Gretchen’s most recent book, Better Than Before. The concepts in her book regarding how we create and maintain habits was intriguing to me so I decided to give the show a go.

This is a fairly new podcast but it is fascinating! If I wasn’t passionate about being a wedding photographer, I would have pursued psychology because it has always been a subject that intrigued me. So, a podcast that explores the understanding of what motivates people and drives their decisions was one I definitely wanted to listen to. The podcast has shared some startling concepts and patterns that are verified by psychology research. Uncovering the mystery of my mind is something that I will always endeavor to do and this podcast is a great way of tapping into your subconscious. [SUBSCRIBE on iTunes]

The Art of Manliness (History)
Brett McKay

I know that this is supposed to be a podcast to help men become better men but I like this show nonetheless! The topics that they cover, such as “#175: Systemizing Your Work and Life” and “#169: The Psychology of Scam Artists & How Not to Get Duped,” are just as relatable to women as they are to men so I’m breaking the rules and listening anyway.
