I have recently become a podcast junkie. I subscribe to every podcast that looks remotely interesting. I download favourite episodes and fill my poor iPhone’s storage to the brim. I sneak out for long walks even on cold winter days so I can listen to an episode interruption free. I’m addicted.
Relatively speaking, this is a fairly healthy addiction to have. If a podcast can get you moving your body and stirring up your creativity and inspiration, I call that a win! These are a few of my favourite podcasts freelancers can gain from.
T
he Accidental Creative
This podcast has been around for a decade! Every week Todd Henry delivers awesome advice for anyone working in a “create-on-demand” world (ie. you!). The show explores ideas on everything to do with creative work and gives practical advice on staying inspired and doing your best work every day.

Invisible Office Hours
Hosted by two amazing creatives, this show covers topics related to unconventional work and ways of thinking. With like a zillion books and e-courses between them, Paul and Jason know what’s up when it comes to launching and sharing creative work.
The Marketing Moxie Show
This is the perfect place to go to get quick, actionable, and effective marketing tips. Maggie Patterson shares marketing advice and insights that can be applied to any business. She has a no bullshit, straight up approach that will make you get down to work.
The Freelance Podcast
If you’re new to freelancing or looking to make the jump, this is the podcast for you. RJ McCollam, a freelance developer, started this podcast to share real world advice from people who have taken the leap into full-time freelancing and what they did to get there.
The 
Lively Show
This one doesn’t directly relate to freelancing, but it’s still a personal favourite. Jess Lively has a lot of creative professionals and entrepreneurs on as guests, so topics around creativity and running a business often come up. Jess and her guests are always super inspiring and will remind you to add some intention to your life.
