Three Podcasts to Grow Your Business (and One to Keep You Sane)

Being a mom of an elementary school-aged kid, I am in my car driving A LOT. So to get the most out of my time in the driver’s seat, I regularly listen to business-driven podcasts that help me learn, be more productive, and grow as a leader. Below are my favorite three podcasts, all available free to download on iTunes:
Building a StoryBrand Postcast / Donald Miller
“Building a StoryBrand” is my hands down, go-to, absolute favorite podcast. And luckily, they release a new one each Monday morning, so I have a fresh perspective to start my week. Miller interviews the very best in marketing, leadership, business and personal development and covers a variety of business-related topics. Some of my favorite episodes include: #55 with Seth Godin, #40 with Juliet Funt and #3 with Dave Ramsey. But take a listen to them all – they are that good!
Online Marketing Made Easy Podcast / Amy Porterfield
Amy Porterfield is one to admire. She is a go-getter—I download her “Online Marketing Made Easy” episodes each week for tips on using Facebook Live, growing our email list and scheduling online marketing. Sometimes, I listen to her podcast just to study how’s she’s doing it! She is a natural to learn from: creative, driven and innovative.
The Art of Paid Traffic Podcast / Rick Mulready
I found “The Art of Paid Traffic” podcast through Amy Porterfield. We recently implemented a Facebook Ads strategy at King Bean Coffee and this podcast is super helpful. Facebook is constantly evolving as an advertising platform and I turn to this podcast for help getting started. I’ll keep listening as Mulready is doing the work for me of staying up-to-date on the constant changes of Facebook.
Bonus: Meditation Minis Podcast / Chel Hamilton
Ok, I obviously don’t listen to this one in the car, but with the input of information I absorb daily, I do need to create a little whitespace in my brain. “Meditation Minis” gives me the break I need. The best part is that they are simple and quick, and Chel Hamilton’s voice is soothingly hypnotic. So refreshing… I think I’ll go listen to one now…
In the meantime, I’d love to hear if there are regular podcasts that you listen to or recommend!
Thanks for these suggestions! My fave is How I Built This. Great interviews with company founders!
