When I find the right podcast show with a host who I can relate to, I feel like I’m connecting with an old friend.

I LOVE podcasts. As a host of my own podcast, I know how much effort it takes to create one. When I find the right podcast with a host who I can relate to, I feel like I’m in a conversation with an old friend. Listening to podcasts doesn’t take up as much energy and willpower compared to reading a book. I can cook, clean, do my daily chores as I listen, making me feel super efficient and productive!

As much as I enjoy listening to podcasts to gain daily knowledge about personal development, business, and marketing, often I find myself tuning in really just wanting to feel connected, to laugh, have fun, and de-stress.

Here are 5 podcasts for healing, connecting, and recharging:

2. Highest Self Podcast by Sahara Rose

Highest Self Podcast® | Podcast on Spotify

I love Sahara’s podcast and the self-exploratory spiritual journey she went on throughout the years. As someone who is very into spirituality and living my life intuitively, I can relate with a lot of the topics shared and the guests who came on. Many episodes are about relationships, spiritual work, and online business.

My Favorite episodes:

3.  AsianBossGirl

AsianBossGirl

I find the AsianBossGirl podcast incredibly relatable and inspiring. Melody, Helen, and Janet’s journey from casual conversations to landing major brand deals and speaking engagements, is both motivating and encouraging for aspiring Asian women entrepreneurs like myself. Their discussions on work challenges, family expectations, dating experiences, and the leap into entrepreneurship mirror many of my own thoughts and experiences.

My favorite episodes:

4. Magic Lessons with Elizabeth Gilbert [COMPLETED]

Ever since I read her book, Eat Pray Love, I’ve been obsessing over all of her work. Elizabeth has a way of speaking as if she’s your dear friend and talks honestly about her work and personal relationships. She has so much light and brings so much intelligent humor with her.

The magic Lessons podcast is related to her recent book Big Magic, where she discusses about creativity and helps us to realize our potential. This podcast is designed to listen in chronological order. There are only 12 episodes so I highly recommend listening to them thoroughly.

As well, because I’m a HUGE Liz Gilbert fan, I also enjoy just about every podcast show with her as a guest.

Here’s one of my favorite interviews of her yet. It’s about creativity, love, death, and grief. It’s a deep listen, and you won’t regret it.
