So back in May of last year, so exactly just over a year ago, I decided to give listening to podcasts a try & I tweeted asking for recommendations & well there were almost 100 comments of recommendations which yes you guessed it, I didn’t have a chance to get through almost 95% of them. Here is the tweet incase you want to read through the thread & check out some of the podcasts:
So in the last year, I found myself turning to podcasts when I went for a run or a walk. I found listening to a podcast versus music actually didn’t have me thinking about time at all, I just focused on the conversation which was refreshing & I found myself running & walking farther during single outings!
The two podcasts I currently listen to regularly:
- The Blonde Files
Arielle Lorre is actually an influencer I’ve followed for a few years now, she started a podcast & has honestly the most amazing guests. I love that the focus is on health & wellness, she asks the questions that honestly were all wondering. I’ve already learned so much about my own health & even what to look for or mention to doctors, all thanks to the specialists she’s had on! - F1’s Beyond The Grid
Shocker, I know. So lately I’ve been playing catch up with this one, it’s honestly so intriguing listening to behind the scenes interviews & learning about prominent F1 names & we’ve even gotten to hear from current drivers that are on the grid. I just find it so fascinating to listen to.
Listen to the odd episode (deepening on the topic or guests):
- Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe
- Chicks In the Office
- Healthier together with Liz Moody
- What the Juice with Olivia Amitrano
- Beyond Victory with Nico Rosberg
Subscribed but haven’t gotten to:
- Be Well By Kelly
I just found out that Kelly (this dietitian that I’ve followed for a while) has a podcast & I can’t wait to get to it on my next walk! - Girlboss Radio
So I just found this the other day & I feel like I need this as a little kick start to get motivated again!
I know we probably don’t have the same interests, mine are clearly geared towards health & wellness, with the odd gossip episode to mix things up! Plus it’s been nice to listen & learn new things!
Do you listen to podcasts? If so, what is your favourite?
Do you have any podcast recommendations, I should check out, leave a comment & let me know!
Thanks for reading!
I am not a podcast/audiobook type of person, I fidget too much and have to be doing something. BUT I haven’t considered putting them on instead of music while I’m exercising! oooo I might have to give that a try!

I was the exact same way. I have some friends that can listen to them anywhere: the car, at home you name it. I can’t do that, I like to be able to dance along to music. I tried while I did weights once & maybe 2 minutes in I had to turn it off. But yeah honestly the only time I can is while I’m walking or running, which is huge already for me!

I tried a podcast while I was doing my nails once. My hands were occupied, my mind was focused on my nails and the words. It was the perfect situation. But like 5 minutes in I was all “nopes” and just turned on the tv instead lol

I found myself not putting much effort into podcasts anymore since I’m no longer committing to work but I definitely feel like there are days when it’s just sooooo much better than listening to music, even the ones where there’s no real topic and just general chit chat (like Armchair Expert).
I’m not sure if this is up your alley but I subscribe to The Self Love Club and I tried a few episodes and they’re not bad! I think you may enjoy it a bit more than me since it does focus on health and wellness and self-care 🙂
