Podcasts for windy days

IMG_0612

There’s nothing like cold, windy days for staying inside and pottering about the house while listening to some great podcasts. Here are a few of the ones I’ve been particularly enjoying lately:

  • This beautiful episode about DELIGHT on This American Life and its reminders of how to find joy in all sorts of ways at any age.
  • Really loving learning about all sorts of feminist topics while laughing out loud with The Guilty Feminist – super fun, amazing and inspiring stories!
  • How to fail reframes failure in a lovely way.  It’s a breath of fresh air, especially in vulnerable times, because it reminds me that everyone learns the most and grows by failing, it’s just part of being human.

What have you been listening to lately? Any recommendations?

Lovely listening

For me the cold winter months are the perfect time to stay indoors, in a state of semi-hibernation, living vicariously through podcasts about other people’s lives:)

Here are some of the thought-provoking podcasts I’ve been enjoying a lot lately. Check them out and let me know what you think.

Good Life Project Radio
Jonathan Fields alternates short 10 minute riffs on different life themes and 1 hour in-depth personal conversations with guests from all horizons. There is so much wisdom in these recordings.
Some of my favorites: The Truth About Luck, Orly Wahba, Elizabeth Gilbert, Tiffany Dufu

Strangers
Lea Thau is a beautiful story teller, many of these true stories have me crying and laughing at the same time.
Some of my favorites:  Alaska Bingo, The Waxing Virgin, the Love hurts episodes
Side hustle school
In a totally different genre,  Chris Guillebeau’s daily podcast is only about 7 minutes long and it presents lots of wonderful tips and tricks to get your business ideas up and running, without quitting your day job. I love that all the examples are really specific and concrete, with actionable suggestions.

Happy listening!
