So, what do you like to listen to when you’re on the go? Some people like music, some like audiobooks, and some like…
Alright, STOP, COLLABORATE AND LISTEN!
I am back with my brand-new invention (called podcasts!)
When I open Spotify and look for a new podcast to listen to, chances are I’m endlessly scrolling, and unsure of which podcast to “commit” to. After all, podcasts are specific to each person, sort of like your Instagram and TikTok “For You Page”.
And if you’re anything like me, you’re looking for two things out of a podcast. First is entertainment, does the host(s) entertain me with their storytelling abilities? How are they able to convey information across audio? And the second thing I look for is education, especially if I’m looking to improve my career.
When you look for a new podcast, be as open or as specific as you want. Want to feel inspired? Or maybe informed? Or are you open to anything? Or maybe you’re like me and need reassurance that I’m doing well in my career, and it’s okay not to know everything in your late 20s!
And in case you are curious about how many people are interested in podcasting, I found some interesting statistics below from Statistica.
