Starting the new year can feel a lot like crawling into a cocoon in anticipation of blooming, and how wonderful would it be to sleep the time away while the magic happens in passing? While self-development seldom occurs this way, the closest we can get is by passively listening.
What we put in our ears and minds matters, and podcasts designed with your betterment in mind, are a fantastic way to go. A good podcast is not only about self-care but can help to nudge you along the desired path you’re trying to follow.
