7 Personal Development Podcasts To Inspire, Motivate & Transform Your Life
Personal development is one of my favorite topics. Give me a space where I can work on Improving myself and that’s where I’ll be - whether it’s via a great book, podcast or course.
There are so many amazing inspirational and motivational podcasts out there. I’ve been listening to podcasts for years, and have listened to more than I can possibly count! Over the years, I’ve definitely found some that stood out more than others. I love reading books as well but unlike books, podcasts are extremely convenient. I listen while at the gym, getting dressed, driving to work, going for a walk or even during cooking. I love the idea that In just about 20-30 minutes per day I can listen to a podcast that can transform your life.
Here are my favorite personal development podcasts :
1. Design Your Dream Life - hosted by Natalie Bacon - a former lawyer and financial planner turned life coach who has been able to make a living teaching and helping high-achieving women reach their goals. In the Design Your Dream Life podcast, Natalie shares lessons on how to master your mindset, make more money, accomplish goals, and build a business.
2. Goal Digger - with host Jenna Kutcher, is one of the most popular personal development podcasts and for a good reason. Jenna shares the strategies she uses to become a self-made millionaire. She speaks on all things productivity, social media, business strategies, and hacks that will help you create your dream career.
3. Do It Scared - with host Ruth Soukup is created to help listeners face fears, overcome adversity, and create a life you LOVE. Each week she provides actionable strategies for greater productivity, motivation, entrepreneurship, creativity, fulfillment, success, and happiness, along with the motivation and encouragement to actually start making real changes that lead to big results.
4. Hey, Girl - Alex is probably one of my favorite people to follow on Instagram. I’ve been following her for years and love her mantras, affirmations and how transparent she is. She created the podcast with sisterhood and storytelling in mind. Alex sits down with people who inspire her. She unites the voices of phenomenal women near and far.
5. The Happiness Lab - This podcast is hosted by Yale Professor Dr. Laurie Santos and is based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale. Dr. Laurie will take you through latest scientific research and share some surprising and inspiring stories that will change the way you think about happiness. You might think you know what it takes to lead a happier life… more money, a better job, or Instagram-worthy vacations. You’re dead wrong. Dr. Laurie has studied the science of happiness and found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will truly make our lives better.
I discovered the podcast after taking her course, The Science Of Well Being on Coursera. Visit the Resource Page and sign up with Coursera to take courses like this and many more from other Ivy League Institutions. It’s Free!
6. The Life Coach School - Hosted by Brooke Castillo is a go-to resource in the self development department. The podcast is about solving any problem you have in your life. Topics include how to take more action, how to set goals, how to love more, how to beat procrastination, how to feel better, how to manage your time, etc. Each episode is typically 25-40 minutes.
7. The Tony Robbins Podcast - Tony Robbins is without a doubt of the biggest names in the personal development space, and his motivational podcast is a hub where he shares all of that amazing knowledge. Tony shares proven strategies and tactics for achieving massive results in your business, relationships, health, and finances.
