5 Uplifting Podcasts To Make That Winter Commute A Little More Bearable

Good ol’ Canadian winter. You head to work: it’s dark outside. You head home from work: it’s dark outside. And without the holiday lights and festivities to brighten up the cold weather and short days… let’s just say, it’s not exactly easy to start (or end) your day in any kind of merry mood.

So here’s a little #inspo. Whether you find yourself on a packed subway or alone in your car, these podcasts can help keep you calm and carrying on this winter.

5. Good Life Project

If this doesn’t shout “inspiration!” we don’t know what does: “A good life is not a place at which you arrive, it’s a lens through which you see and create your world” (Jonathan Fields, founder of Good Life Project). 

Candid and open conversations with some of the world’s greatest thinkers, entrepreneurs, artists, and more on how to open your mind, switch your perspective, and embrace all the positive vibes the world is offering you.
