Earlier this week I shared my top 5 podcasts to help you level up your business. Today, I’m sharing my favorite podcasts for personal growth.

Some of these are “business-y,” but they can really apply to anyone in a variety of jobs or stages of life. You can learn while driving, working out, cooking, walking your dogs … whatever! It is truly multi-tasking at its finest. Because many of these will require lots of reflection, I often listen to them more than once.

1. The Life Coach School

I wrote this one off the first time it was suggested to me thinking “Okay cool, but I’m not a life coach.” But, hear me say it… this is definitely not just for coaches. This podcast has blown my mind more than any others I’ve listened to! Brooke Castillo is full of wisdom, and every single podcast comes with action steps.

Favorite Episodes: Productivity, Future Focus, Why You Aren’t Taking Action, Overcoming Fear

(There are over 180 episodes. I recommend starting at episode 1 and moving through them from there!)

2. The School of Greatness

Lewis is a bestselling author, lifestyle entrepreneur, former pro athlete and world record holder in football. This podcast is all about helping you achieve your highest potential in life. Lewis interviews successful and interesting people (like Dwight from The Office and Cassey Ho from Pop Pilates). Plus, many episodes are quick inspirations in under 10 minutes.

Favorite Episodes: Make Today Count, 7 Steps to a Bulletproof Life with Chris Lee, 8 Keys Powerful Leaders Use to Achieve Greatness

3. Money Girl’s Quick & Dirty Tips for a Richer Life

If you have a question about your finances, Money Girl probably has the answer. These episodes provide tips on everything from retirement accounts to investing in gold. Laura approaches every topic in details from an easy to understand perspective.

Favorite Episodes: 8 Ways to Legally Pay Less Taxes and Save Money, How to Buy a House, Retirement Q&A: How to Choose Accounts, Manage Risk, and Cut Fees, Should You Pay Off Debt Before Investing?

4. The Marie Forleo Podcast

Marie is a writer, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. As her tagline states, this podcast is “the place to be to build a life and business you love.” This is the podcast version of her award-winning show “Marie TV.” Most of the episodes are super short (under 10 minutes) and each episode is witty, funny, and full of wisdom.

5. The Tony Robbins Podcast

Tony is a life and business strategist who has worked with powerful people such as Oprah Winfrey and Bill Clinton. His podcast is full of life strategy and includes topics such as wellness, investing, productivity, and success. I haven’t explored this one as much as the others on this list because I just found it! But, I’m loving it so far!
