When I stumbled into the world of podcasts, I was lost! Like really so gone. After a month or two of true crime stories, I found the business side of all things helpful to my business! & recently as I have been paying a lot more attention to my personal trends I have found a handful of female podcasters that I keep coming back to listen to as soon as a new episode uploads. So now I have put together a quick list of my 5 favorite female podcasters you should be listening to as a business owner in 2022.
If you have ever paid attention to my venue posts you know I travel, like a lot of travel! In a two wedding weekend I can easy spend 8-9 hours in my car. I use to spend most of that time listening to my music playlists and audiobooks. All these hours in the car really started to feel like such a waist of time I mean yeah I’m driving to meet a great couple, and document their perfect day but what am I really doing to help my business during this time… NOTHING! But now I massively binge on these ladies. In the last two years by spending my drive time this way I feel as though my creativity and business have benefited so much!
If you have ever heard Amy speak or caught one of her courses you know she is simply amazing! Amy started her business journey as digital course creator and since has grown into this mega educator of all parts business. To date she has released over 450 episodes (twice a week) with topics from Social Media, Self Care, Preparations in your Business, & Business Marketing.

Jenna started her business journey as a small town photographer, she is so real with everything that she offers out to her listeners, which makes her so easy to relate to. She regularly shares her wins and her fails in the early years. Since the start of her business she has grown and evolved into a great business mind and put down the camera to exclusively become an entrepreneur educator.

I can’t say enough great things about Jainé! Not only is she an amazing New York wedding photographer and wedding industry podcaster, but she is personally my business coach! I found her late last year while looking for the right coach to help me get past some business road blocks. Quickly after we started our coaching calls I listed to every episode on loop, I just couldn’t get enough. What I like most about Tea with Jainé is the amazing guests she is able to bring on the show.

Like a lot of the other ladies I follow in this post Paige started her business career as a photographer while in law school. When she was ready she stopped photographing couples and weddings to then open her legal contract consulting & podcasting. I love the real life legal advice I get in the moment with Paige. Like when covid hit and we were all being canceled or rescheduled Paige gave us real details on what our contracts needed to say and how we were were able to stand up for our little businesses legally. No matter what point you are in your business Paige is a great resource to listen to.

Have you heard of the enneagram? If not you should check it out, seriously knowing my enneagram number and wing have opened my eyes to so much in how I run my business. [look for a whole new blog post on this topic coming soon!] But long story short I am an enneagram 1 ‘The Perfectionist’ By listening to Sam I’ve been able to learn new ways of running my business that doesn’t trigger my inner perfectionist and get more done each day in my business.
