Podcasts have become my latest and greatest discovery recently! How have I not known about these things before? If you are new to podcasts or a veteran to them I am going to share with you my top seven podcasts I have playing on repeat! I listen to podcasts every single day, on the way home from work, on the way to work, or when I am at the gym! Life gets so busy and it’s hard to find the time to sit down and read book or articles to gather information. Do you find your self scrolling through the same information over and over again on the internet and never truly finding what your looking for? Trust me I have been in the same position! The lesson I have learned from these podcasts is ALWAYS go to the experts! Obvious right? If you want to be a successful business owner, talk to people who own successful businesses and have been down the tough road before. Alright lets break it down one by one!
1. The Influencer Podcast
The influencer podcast is run by New York Time best selling publicist Julie Solomon. This was the first podcast I had stumbled upon and let me tell you, I was hooked! Julie is the bees knees when it comes to pitching yourself to brands, marketing, and educating you on what brands want. All her guests are amazing and inspirational people who and full or amazing information from blogging, marketing, PR, entrepreneurship and so much more. Julie always loves to ask this one question to most of her guests on the show which I love “what would you say to influencers out there who have started out or are new to the industry”. THIS IS GOLD! The answers all of her amazing guests provide us each week is stellar!

2. The Goal Digger Podcast
Jenna Kutcher runs the wildly successful podcast The Goal Digger. She is probably one of the humblest individuals I know. I don’t think I have encountered anyone with so much poise, self-confidence and and love for helping others reach their goals. This podcast is all about helping you redefine your success and chase your dreams. She provides her own knowledge and as well as conducts interviews with experts on how to dig in and tackle your biggest goals along the way! Jenna used to work in a windowless office ( as I currently am) and she tells her story of how she left the corporate world and chased her dreams and a photographer and successful entrepreneur. Her story is amazing and inspiring and manages to motivate us all with her knowledge of branding, marketing, and business every day!

3. Online Marketing Made Easy
Amy Porterfield makes understanding marking so simple. Coming into the world of business and blogging I came in blind sides knowing nothing about the industry. I had no idea how to brand myself or market myself to my community and even to this day I still don’t have it all together, but thank God to Amy Porterfield! This podcast is amazing and helps me so much! It is so informational and so informative, I never listen to this podcast without a pen and paper to write everything down!

4. The GaryVee Audio Experience
There isn’t much to say for this podcast except that it’s a MUST LISTEN! If you are a millennial, Gary Vaynerchuk is a serial entrepreneur and the CEO and co-founder of VaynerMedia. He knows exactly what to say and how to kick anyone’s butt when it comes to running a successful business. If you are starting out a business now and need some inspiration or always find yourself coming up with excuses to start your business up now, then you need to give this podcast a listen! He is amazing at what he does and whenever I find myself in a bad place or I am having an off day I turn his podcasts on and he re-motivates me and helps light that fire right back up inside of me to keep going and keep pushing!

5. The Blog Millionaire
Brandon Gaille is the host of The Blog Millionaire podcast. I am so so so thankful I ran into this podcast. One of the biggest things I stay away from is building my SEO, which is probably the worst approach to take but I simply just don’t understand it. Brandon breaks everything down so simple and teaches you the step by step process to building your SEO, growing your traffic, optimizing your website, even how to write a killer blog post! Seriously this one is definitely a must listen and has SO much valuable information that is hard to find anywhere else FOR FREE!

6. Rich Bitch | Entrepreneurship
Angie is probably one of the funniest podcasts hosts I know with a ton of smart business knowledge. Now, a lot of her knowledge and is around how to teach wellness professionals how to grow their social brand & close sales with ease. But you don’t need to be in the health and wellness industry to learn some of her amazing tactics to selling! What I love best is that the content is great, it’s entertaining, and Angie is super authentic and real. She speaks the truth and isn’t afraid to be herself, which is so refreshing in today’s society. I listen to this podcast religiously and love the fact that she’s so relatable and straight to the point. No bs just real quality content. So glad I found this podcast.

7. The Marie Forleo Podcast
I discovered Marie Forleo from an interview she had with Julie Solomon on the Influencer podcast (number 1 above). Marie was named by Oprah as a thought leader for the next generation and one of Inc.’s 500 fastest growing companies. Yeah that’s right OPRAH! One quote from Marie that resonates with me everyday is “you are the only version of yourself and you have a gift that only you can give to the world”. Being in the blogging community it’s so easy to stop and compare yourself and drive yourself down a whole. Understanding the value of who you are and what you can bring to the table in a unique way is so valuable. This is Marie’s 76goal and try to help you become the person you most want to be. Marie shares her knowledge and expertise as well as conducts interviews with professionals in the industry to share actionable strategies for greater happiness, success, motivation, creativity, productivity, love, health, contribution and fulfillment. You can even check out the video version of her podcasts at Marie TV.
