The 15 Best Podcasts for Entrepreneurs, Hustlers + Business Owners
I am all about multi-tasking and efficiency which is one of the reason I LOVE podcasts. I listen to them while I cook, clean, shower, workout, run errands, in the car.. you name it. There are so many wonderful podcasts out there with incredible guests that you can learn SO much from, which is why I created this list of podcasts for entrepreneurs, hustlers and business owners.
[ PIN ME FOR LATER! ]
I often get asked how I grew my instagram following, how I grew my blog traffic, how I learned photography and the truth is: google, podcasts + grit.
Free information is everywhere and I’m somewhat convinced college won’t be all it’s cracked up to be in five years or so. You can learn how to master almost anything with a google search bar, YouTube, podcasts and LOTS of hustle.
I was listening to Rachel Hollis on the Influencer podcast today and she was saying how frustrated she gets when people ask her the questions I listed above. To be honest, I get a little frustrated too. Growing a business is hard work!
I have a few resources on my blog like:
- How to Be an Influencer in 2018
- How to Grow Your Blog Traffic
- Interviews with Industry Elites
- & My Shop Page (where I link my equipment!)
I also regularly share blogging tips, new podcasts, articles + more over on my instagram stories.
However, there is no cheat sheet or secret trick to creating a successful business. It takes TONS of time, hard work, patience, hearing the word “no” and passion.
I hope you all find some value in this list of podcasts for entrepreneurs, business owners and hustlers. These podcasts have provided me with so much beneficial information and have really inspired me to keep pushing for my dreams!
