Top 10 Spiritual Healing & Personal Growth Podcasts to Try
July 24, 2023
In an era where screens dominate our everyday lives and scrolling consumes most of our time, listening to a podcast can be suuuuuch a breath of fresh air.
When you find a podcast you really like, there is honestly no other feeling. When you connect with a certain host, it’s like coming back to your safe little sanctuary, personal community of just you and them, and it can easily become your ‘you’ time. Self-growth and healing podcasts have become a huge resource tool for so many. In the times you want to just relax, immerse yourself in a topic, but might not want to engage with others in the moment, podcasts are great for this. You can likely find a podcast episode on whatever personal growth or spiritual healing topic you want to learn more about. Spotify and Apple Music are their own little search engines these days. You can find great profound results when you treat these streaming apps the same way you’d approach Google for resources and support.
Finding the Right Podcast
Podcasts can be incredible for the deeper moments, the moments you’re ready to expand, learn and grow. If these are the types of shows you’re looking to try, you’re in the right place. Today there are so many great podcasts out there, so how do you find the one for you? It’s super simple: trial and error baby. Try a new podcast with an open mind. Not only does this help with the brain’s neuro plasticity, but it’s a refreshing way to enrich your daily exploration in your practice. These long-form conversations with the right people + guests can help us conceptualize larger topics of healing + growth. Through storytelling, interviews, humor, lighter and deeper conversations, there’s something to be said about directing intention inward and actively listening to topics like this. In the moments you’re ready for that deep introspection, you’re going to love this list of 10 shows.
Why Podcasts as a Resource?
Sometimes, silence and stillness is the best medicine, and doing nothing is really the best practice. In the moments you’re looking to engage, welcome new podcasts when you’re ready to explore. And don’t force it if podcasts aren’t your cup of tea as a resource. There are so many channels and avenues to access healing resources, so if you’re not an auditory person, don’t force it. Maybe you won’t get what you need out of a 2-hour podcast. Or, maybe that’s just what you need without realizing: something to focus, slow yourself, and settle the mind with some self-healing chatter. Either way, as with any healing method, take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. Sometimes 5 minutes is all it takes to get inspired. Maybe you need to challenge yourself & your brain with trying something new. Maybe you need to find a new way to intake information. If this is you, this article will be perfect for you. Find your flow, and again, take what resonates and leave what doesn’t.
We’ve handpicked a selection of our top favorite spiritual podcasts. These are bound to ignite your curiosity, nourish the soul, and help you on your journey of self-discovery and transformation. Without further ado, give these podcasts a try. Let the simple power of listening guide you towards a deeper connection with yourself and the world around you.

5. For the Healthy Hoes
Ri Turner + Sunset Tim are up to something over there. For the Healthy Hoes is such a nice mix of realistic conversations & fun banter about all things mindfulness, connectivity & self awareness. They frame certain concepts and ideas so well, in a way that feels approachable & comfortable to explore. A concept you may have thought to be so big picture, so esoteric, is put in such a way that feels familiar, like you’ve chatted this with your best friend the day before, like it’s a narrative you’ve already been living. “YES that’s exactly how I’ve been trying to explain that”, is something I find myself saying frequently as I listen to recent episodes. Really loving this one lately.

Your spiritual auntie is here to help you through all things along your spiritual journey: recognizing your intuition, understanding your energy, manifestation, trust, soulmates, the list goes on. Miss Mystic is a spin off of Alea’s other podcast, Spiritual Sh*t, and this one does not disappoint. (Spiritual Shi*t has some really great episodes too, so be sure to go back in the archive and check those out). As a spiritual advisor, our girl is back with beautiful energy & information from source to share with us. If you’re looking to get in touch with your higher self as an intuitive, spiritual healer, psychic, etc., this is the podcast for you!

Josephine is The Inner Work podcast really helps you do the inner work. Prepare for insightful conversations and interviews that dive deep into the realms of spirituality, energy work, healing, and connecting with the divine. In June, Josephine did a 30-Day Authenticity Challenge that was super cool to tune in to.

This is a great episode to introduce Akashic Records to your practice if you’ve been interested in learning more. As an Akashic Records Practitioner, Josephine offers deep insight into her practice & how she got started giving readings. This episode also offers a guided resource that you can buy & download from her site, which includes a 40-minute audio that guides you into meditative state. As Josephine guides you, you get a deep sense of your own Akashic Record Book to inform your healing practice surrounding this knowledge. This gives you the opportunity to really connect and experience your Akashic Records in a comfortable, approachable way for the first time. I HIGHLY recommend checking this out along with other similar resources of hers for self-healing.

Whether you’re super engaged, or you want some background audio that’s helpful & inspiring, tap in to the power of “passive listening”. Podcasts, audiobooks, and even Youtube videos provide the flexibility to multitask and explore new topics in your own way.
