Whether it’s the hum of coffee shop chatter, your favorite spotify playlist or a podcast, having that background buzz helps you get by during your work day. If you’re anything like me, you got into podcasts a few years ago after you binge listened to the first season of Serial. After I listened to that entire podcast in 3 days… I was hooked. Now, I am faithful to 10 different podcasts, waiting for the next episodes to come out each week. I listen to a variety of topics, but my favorite ones are listening to other creatives and entrepreneurs and how they got to where they are.

It’s helpful and inspiring to listen to people’s goals, both how they got there and where they anticipate to be. The podcasts below are podcasts that I listen to on a regular basis that help to inspire me both creatively and life in general. I hope this helps you too!

The episodes are filled with inspiration and resources that will help you to go full time
