In order to move your business forward, you need new ideas and inspiration. There is a series of podcasts I listen to that fuel my passion and creativity for my business and even life. Let me share what I am listening to.
Whether I am driving in my car or out for a walk, you can often find me listening to a podcast in an effort to capture an idea that will help me tweak my business. Each of these podcasts provides tips and techniques for bringing businesses to the next level. They often share books to read and applications to use to make life easier and more productive. They also interview successful entrepreneurs who share their ideas for success.
These five podcasts are informative and inspirational:
Entrepreneur on Fire with John Lee Dumas – John Lee Dumas has a daily podcast where he interviews successful entrepreneurs. So far he has had over 1,200 interviews. I have filled a Moleskine notebook with mostly ideas, book recommendations, and software applications.
Smart Passive Income with Pat Flynn – Pat Flynn is the go-to guy for trying to leverage smart passive income. He shares information about everything to include affiliate marketing, building email lists, and creating products like books, courses, etc. to sell online. Create it, promote it, and reap the rewards, or find a product someone else has and start promoting it. Here some of my favorite episodes:
- SPI 192: (Updated Recording) Types of Passive Income Generated Online and What to Expect From Each – Part 1

This is Your Life with Michael Hyatt – Michael Hyatt’s podcast and blog focus on leadership. However, through this podcast, I have learned about blogging, publishing, delegating, time management, and much more. I like how he presents his lessons in a series of lists.
The Authority Insider Podcast with Matt Wolfe – Matt Wolfe also interviews successful entrepreneurs and tries to identify what led to their success. Another great source of information. This has been a recent addition to my podcasting list, but I am already a fan.
Online Marketing Made Easy with Amy Porterfield – Amy Porterfield’s focus is on online marketing. It has been a treat to listen to her podcasts as she interviews business owners who are rocking in terms of online marketing. Lots of great lessons through this podcast series.
