Self Development Podcasts to Kick Start 2021

I don't know about you but I find podcasts to be a breathe of fresh air when it comes to consuming new information.


Reading books, studying courses and watching YouTube videos are all great ways to learn new information but there is something about putting a podcast on when walking or doing your morning routine that hits differently. I think it is something to do with the format and that it feels like you're having a chat with someone.


So I thought I would help kick start your 2021 with 21 self development podcasts that I hope will help your growth and develop into the person you want to be in 2021.
