We are launching a best podcasts series because – hello I LOVE me some podcasts! Today’s round up is of the Best Podcasts for Women.
Where are my podcast fans at? I love me a good podcast. Since I work at home, after my audible credits are up for the month – my next go to is podcasts. I have probably 10-15 that I regularly listen to.
Podcasts on the Lawn Mower
Random fact – in the spring and summer, I love mowing our lawn. A few years ago we moved to the country. We have 2 acres and with a zero turn mower, it’s actually fun and stress relieving to mow the law. Yes, I know it sounds nutty and no, it’s not some kind of ploy for my husband to get out of it. I really do enjoy it.
When you have a house full of 4 kids – it’s a wonderful thing seeing that when I mow the lawn, the kids can’t just go make the grass instantly grow back and mess it up (unlike the house cleaning situation!) Bonus – it’s the perfect time to listen to podcasts. So my lawn mowing season drastically increases how many podcasts I listen to.
Best Podcasts for Women
Starting this best podcasts series off, we are talking BEST podcasts for WOMEN! GIRL POWER. Let’s dive in and look at our favorite listens.
Best Podcasts for Women
Here are our picks for the best podcasts for women. From helping you grow personally to spiritually, this list of audio listens provide a range of topics that us women can relate to.
NPR has a series of podcasts called Life Kit. I've listened to them all, but the main ones I'd like to focus the female attention to is MONEY. I feel like money is something that all women (hello, really all people but we are talking women) - need to know about. It's a practical guide to finances. I learned so many new things, this definitely makes my list of best podcasts for women.
NPR Life Kit has a Parenting series coming out that I am sure will be a fascinating listen, as well!

How is this for a tag line? What happens when women break the rules?
