10 Best Personal Development Podcasts for Female Entrepreneurs

Personal development podcasts are one of the best tools now available to female entrepreneurs. With a quick click on your smartphone, you can tap into the talent and expertise of some of the most prolific female CEOs, thought leaders, authors, and experts. 

Even better, it doesn’t feel like learning—the best podcasts feel like an intimate conversation and offer authentic and applicable advice for every fempreneur building her empire.

With thousands of options out there, how do you find the most motivational, authentic and valuable content? These ten personal development podcasts are my favorite for getting a dose of inspiration along with actionable tips and insights for your entrepreneurial journey.

Admittedly, I’m slightly biased because this is my own podcast. I’m on a mission to help female entrepreneurs get intentional in life and business. I tackle powerful topics ranging from money mindset to body image issues to breaking down your limiting beliefs so that you, as a rising fempreneur, can start breaking through, shifting your mindset, and making things happen!

Plus, the badass lady bosses that join me as guests on Mindset Reset Radio are seriously game-changers. They’ll help you take initiative ASAP with actionable advice, tips, and strategies. Listen to our number one episode of all time, Jen and I talk about how to say SO LONG to burnout.

Host Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, is an MBA, award-winning spiritual business growth strategist, best selling author, and international TEDx speaker. On her podcast, she marries spirituality and business strategy to help you understand how aligning the two allows you to create the life and career that you crave. Darnyelle shares solo insights and interviews guests, and is always offering specific strategies and resources to grow your business. 

I was fortunate enough to be a guest on her podcast and we chatted about stepping into your power as a female entrepreneur, the importance of meditation, and how your “dream life” may be different than you realize—listen to the episode! 

Tiffany Han is a writer, speaker, and life coach who teaches driven women how to embrace a new framework for success and productivity. What I love about Tiffany’s funny, relatable, no-holds-barred podcast is that she’s got the chops to back it up. 

Her experience includes, “a degree in Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a CPCC certification from the Coaches Training Institute combined with over a decade of experience in non-profit fundraising, marketing, and sales.”

Most importantly, Tiffany wants to push listeners out of your comfort zone and explains why that’s where the magic happens. Episodes feature guests, including recently, Glennon Doyle, listener questions, and solo chats.

The Lively Show is currently on a break—Jess explains why in an episode back in June, understandably amidst turbulent social events. However, there’s a lot of great content that you can catch up on while waiting for her return. 

In the show, Lively hones in on cultivating and listening to your inner voice and the law of attraction, among other powerful personal development topics. You’ll find solo episodes, Q&A sessions, and interviews, all of which are great options for learning and diving deeper into you.

The elevator pitch for this personal development podcast is that it “teaches you how to grow your business by reprogramming the patterns and beliefs that keep you stuck.” Podcast host Melyssa Griffin is a teacher turned blogger turned entrepreneur. Her current goal is to help fellow female entrepreneurs grow their business by first focusing on themselves. Most episodes are interviews, but there are also solo shows and coaching calls. 

Melyssa is also not afraid to dive into taboo topics, like the recent episode How to Use Your Menstrual Cycle to Plan Your Life. This type of content is what makes this one of the personal development podcasts that is most relatable and authentic, two key attributes of a podcast worth listening to.

Marie Forleo is the author of the best-selling book, Everything is Figureoutable. She was also named a “thought leader of our generation” by Oprah. In her podcast, she interviews a wide variety of experts on a range of topics that all focus on bettering your life.

This isn’t like your typical personal development podcasts, but I wanted to include it because anxiety is such a pervasive issue for female entrepreneurs. Kelli Walker is a registered nurse and a certified health and wellness coach who interviews other mental health experts on escaping anxiety in all its forms. 

Recent guests include a divorce attorney tackling emotions surrounding separation, a psychotherapist chatting about being a highly sensitive person, and a psychologist who wants to help you unstick from a busy mind. 

Anxiety is a different journey for everyone, and it can create serious roadblocks to becoming your own boss and living a fulfilling life. Listening to an episode that resonates with your particular “brand” of anxiety can help you overcome that stress or just let you know you aren’t alone in feeling those feelings. 

Tony Robbins is one of the OG self-help experts and business and life strategists. His Netflix documentary, Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru, gives great insight into just how powerful he is. He was an international personal development phenomenon before podcasts and Instagram existed and after nearly four decades of inspiring millions, his message isn’t watered down. 

The Tony Robbins podcast offers fresh, authentic advice on living an extraordinary life. Episodes include interviews and offer relationship, health, and financial guidance.
