What goes into your brain is SO important. From the news to social media, we can be constantly surrounded by negativity unless we actively choose not to be. Podcasts are a great way to control your content intake, spark your creativity, and learn something new.
Are you worried that you couldn’t possibly add one? more. thing. on your plate? Concerned that you’ll have to sit still for 2 hours at a time to soak in all the information thrown at you while you listen to a podcast about business? While it is nice to have your phone closeby for a few ideas that pop into your mind as you listen, fitting a podcast into your routine here and there is actually easier than you may think.
You can listen while you’re commuting to work, folding laundry, or getting ready in the morning. The possibilities are endless, really. Anytime I’m in the car alone, as to not bore my husband (you’re welcome, Hunter!), you can bet I’ve got a podcast playing to keep those creative juices flowing.
It can be hard to decide what podcasts to listen to. There are podcasts for motivation, business podcasts, and even social media marketing podcasts. So where should you even begin??
I personally have a list a mile long of podcasts that are in my regular rotation, but I wanted to hear from other business owners. I hopped into the It’s About Time Facebook Community and asked what their go-to podcast for business was. I absolutely LOVED the feedback and wanted to share it with you!
Here are the top 5 podcasts for business owners as recommended by the It’s About Time Facebook Community:
#1. The GUIDE Culture Podcast
As one of the It’s About Time Community members so accurately stated, “The GUIDE Culture Podcast is playing on my phone every Tuesday without fail.” This is one of the greatest podcasts that you can listen to if you’re in sales. Macy, Kat, & Loy bring an entirely different spin on sales and help people see that “salesman” isn’t a bad word. If you’re looking for something to help improve your sales, boost your confidence, and teach you how to add value to your audience- this is the one for you!
#2. Becoming Boss Podcast
Kristen Boss is a mindset coach for Social Sellers. She tells it like it is, sister. One of my favorite quotes from Kristen is “We don’t do hustle here.” She’s all about hard work and not burning yourself out in the process. She teaches powerful and current social selling strategies to the modern network marketer so they can show up with more purpose, authenticity, and service in the marketplace. She teaches new ways of Network Marketing and Social Selling.

#3. The Goal Digger Podcast
Jenna Kutcher is a business owner’s BFF. This podcast is FULL of valuable info for business owners of all kinds! She doesn’t specifically teach on Network Marketing techniques, but her lessons can definitely be applied to that industry. Jenna is an expert on all things social media and she’s helped literally thousands of people grow their online businesses over the years. Actually, I just need to let Jenna do her own intro because I could never do it justice.
“I’m a digital marketing expert, self-education mastermind, data-obsessed algorithm avenger, detail-loving self-care activist, stubborn-as-heck achiever and individualist, small-town puppy parent, frequent flier, margarita mixologist, and a mac-and-cheese-eating mama.”
Told ya you’d be BFFs before long!
