A year ago, I started listening to podcasts during my commute when I realized I was spending approximately 50 minutes a day reciting Drake lyrics or switching between radio stations. While I love trying to rap “One Dance”, I thought my time could become a little more productive. And podcasts were the solution.

I’m excited to share with you my favorite podcasts about fashion blogging, career advancement, and personal growth.
