What did we do before podcasts?
I find it difficult to not be busy, as I’m sure many of us can relate to. If I’m not brushing up on my knowledge about something, I’m wasting time. I’m not saying this is a good attitude to have, but it’s one that I do nonetheless.
I spend my life listening to podcasts, whether I’m walking the dog or cleaning the house. There’s always something playing, so I’ve become rather the podcast connoisseur – especially if they relate to fashion.
Let’s get right to it. If you’re on the hunt for a new listen, make it one of these. From the Fashion Revolution podcast to Articles of Interest, there’s some real gems here.
