Note: This is a post by Courtney Baker, chief seller and long-time running wo-man of MvD.

Ages ago, I set a personal goal to start tracking my spending again and start planning things I wanted to buy. I was struggling to stick to my guns and keep myself accountable.

Frustrated and desperate, I needed a new strategy. I suddenly remembered podcasts.

Podcasts really boosted my momentum to pay off my debt and control my spending. Listening to a 5-10 minute segment on sticking to a grocery budget just before grocery shopping really affected the amount of stuff in my shopping cart.

Getting informed about why I wanted to pay down certain debts first made me want to pay them down even faster.

We make dozens of money decisions throughout they day. Listening to five minutes here and there significantly changed my momentum in paying off my debt. I felt informed, aware, and in control, finally.

Check out this array of podcasts to rev up your momentum. Are you interested into traditional money advice, inspiring bloggers, or behavior change coaches? Dig in.

Daring Greatly Read Along

brenebrown

Brene is my new favorite speaker on earth! I’ve attended two of her talks this year in addition to reading her books and looking at her TED talks.

This is a “book discussion” for Daring Greatly, but you can enjoy the episodes without reading the book. She will change the way you think about yourself. It’s time to strip the guilt and start kicking butt on your goals.

Live Your Epic Life Podcast

The introduction says it all, “In a world that pushes you to extremes- more work, less rest, more stuff, less space, more activities, less time, more disease, less health, it’s critical to be intentional about what kind of life you are going to live.”

  1. Great post. I love Pat Flynn’s podcasts. Dave Ramsey is always great to listen to, but I do tire of the endless sales pitches for his products. I also really like these podcasts:
    – John Jantsch’s Duct Tape Marketing
    – Chris Brogan’s The Human Business Way
    – Michael Hyatt’s This is Your Life

    While they may not be directly related to managing your money, they all can have a positive impact on your income.

    1. I know! It’s amazing how non-personal finance podcasts positively affect my personal finances. I’ll have to check out Duct Tape Marketing.

  2. Good list; I’d like to add my podcast, Money Go Roundtable, to the mix. I do the show with a fellow consumer protection lawyer and we talk about the big picture issues facing people.

  3. Justin Braden

    A great podcast to check out is Jesse Mecham of You Need A Budget (YNAB) // I’ve learned so much off that podcast!

  4. I’ve been looking for some good financial podcasts and have really had trouble finding them. This list defintiely has some new ones to check out. Thanks for the suggestions!

  5. Awesome list! I’ve listened to about half of those and love them. Pat Flynn’s, of course, is epic. I once consumed almost 50 of them on a road trip across the US! It was tough to hear all that awesome content and be stuck in a car, unable to make it happen! 🙂

    To add to that, I’m a huge fan of Chris Guthrie’s “MakeMoneyOnTheInternet” Podcast, as well as my own show, of course, (I’m the co-host) “The BiggerPockets Podcast” – a real estate investing podcast.

    Great list Courtney!

    1. I’ll 2nd the bigger pockets podcast. Its amazing how small the blogging world is.

      I’ll look forward to listening to them. I listen to financial advice very cautiously. Much of what is out there can be detrimental to your future.

  6. The Money Guy with Brian Preston is a great financial podcast and right now he is going back to the basics for his listeners.
