The bottom of my resume lists my hobbies, including “listening to podcasts”.

I have an INSANE obsession with podcasts. So much that I made an AHTK GIF with the sole purpose of using it on Instagram stories when I want to share podcasts quotes & recs with you guys. In this post, I shared my Top 3 Motivational Podcasts.

Podcasts are so amazing because they are a productive way to spend your time. You can walk, wash the dishes, cook, do your makeup, drive, – DO BASICALLY ANYTHING – while passively learning.

My obsession ATM is listening to a podcast while walking outside. Chicago’s weather isn’t this beautiful year-round and I REALLY want to take advantage of the nice weather and my free time while I can.

I’ll be starting my dietetic internship (DI) supervised practice next month and my DI director warned us that we will have long commutes to our various rotations and recommended that we listen to podcasts to help pass the time.

I LOL-ed to myself… Little did she know HOW OBSESSED I already am with podcasts.

If I’m not talking with someone, I’m prolly listening to a podcast. However, I don’t only listen to motivational & inspirational podcasts; I also enjoy fun &/or light hearted podcasts. My brother told me that I’m “always on” which is kind of true ( HAH ), but I also think it’s important to consume content that is entertaining… So I figured that it was about time for me to share some fun podcasts with you guys!

Lady Gang

The Lady Gang is a celeb driven podcast hosted by Keltie Knight (Emmy Award winning TV personality, Entertainment Tonight host, also featured on AHTK ;)), Jac Vanek (self-made entrepreneur and CEO of the Jac Vanek brand), and Becca Tobin (actress, singer, blogger, star of the TV show Glee). What I love about these girls is that they are so transparent with their community and keep their content raw & real… They bring light to uncomfortable or taboo topics, show by example how to be unapologetically yourself, and provide advice for their community of Lady Gang-ers! Because they all have such different backgrounds, they are able to provide unique perspectives on navigating womanhood and about life in Hollywood.

Girls Gotta Eat

Girls Gotta Eat is a comedy podcast about dating and relationships in New York with co-hosts Rayna Greenberg (the food blogger behind @onehungryjew) and Ashley Hesseltine (comedian). These girls really don’t hold back when it comes to sharing ANYTHING! They give advice about dating in New York and talk about anything from first dates to dating apps to broken engagements. These girls also open up conversation around human rights and mental health.

My Favorite Murder

My roomie from school and I are #MFM groupies! We would always talk about the latest episode and share our commentary on it! My Favorite Murder is a true crime comedy podcast hosted by Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark. I’ve listened to a few true crime podcasts and this is the only one I’ve stuck with. The hosts share all emotions on the podcast – empathy, grief, joy – and go beyond the scope of just true crime. Karen & Georgia don’t only talk about true crime, but they also use their platform to open up discussion about depression, eating disorders, and addiction.

What are your favorite podcasts at the moment? Let me know on Instagram and make sure to tag me with the “AHTK” podcast GIF! 😉
