Discover Listening

Are you ever driving in your car (if you're a mom then you spend half your life here) and the radio just isn't playing anything worth listening to? Your kids are in the back of the car making a lot of noise, or you are by yourself and you start talking to yourself. You are not alone. This is almost a daily occurrence for me. Well, we wanted to discover new things to listen to so we could reduce the number of board driving hours or just to make us think a little different about life.

Everyone came with a couple ideas. I love our list because it reflects our individual interests. 

Here are a few particular ones that were suggested:

How I Built This (not how I made it :))- "This is a podcast about innovators, entrepreneurs, and idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built." It discusses how different companies came to be. Start with the Crate and Barrel episode.

Anything by Brene Brown- She has a couple TED talks and has been featured on different podcasts. Just search her. Her videos or talks will change how you feel about relationships. Setting boundaries, being vulnerable, rejection, perfectionism, ect...

This american Life- They have radio, podcasts, or tv episodes that discuss anything about american life

TED radio hour- Love this one! They combine a few different TED talks so discuss some point of view. One of my favorites: Slowing Down.

Revisionist History- "Because sometimes the past deserves a second chance." 

Extreme Genes- all about family history. 

Invisibilia- Why do you dress like you do? Can you really fake it until you make it? This podcast is a look at invisible forces that shape human behavior.

Short and Curly- This is a great podcast to listen to with kids. It asks questions such as "Is Dumbledore really a good person?" "Do you have to love your siblings?". It has created great discussions with my kiddos. 

For uplifting religious talks:

Legacy

BYU speeches. 

These cover a range of topics that will inspire you to be better. 

Go learn something new. Think about life a little deeper. Be inspired!
