Podcasts for Artists in 2021

I mentioned this blog post in a podcast interview and was shocked to see the list was made six years ago! Granted, it still holds up and much of the content on those podcasts is evergreen, meaning it's applicable even today. Some of those podcasts have ended and others are still going strong. But what am I listening to these days for entrepreneurial advice? I thought it was time for an updated list! 

• Create and Thrive -  I've been following Jess Van Den for quite some time! 4+ years of listening to this podcast and I'm still learning something new each episode. Create and Thrive is full of tips for building a thriving, handmade business.
• The Business of Making - Three experts in the handmade industry giving business advice with their collective 20 years experience? yes please. 
• Dear Handmade Life - From the organizers of Craftcation and Patchwork Show, this podcast has really meaningful conversations around having a handmade business. I love that the interviews cover bits about the artist's life, but also includes in depth questions 
• Being Boss - This was on my last list, and it's still really good! Emily Thompson has taken on BB solo for the last two years, and she still manages to bring value; especially when it comes to thinking BIG.
• Creative Biz Rebellion​ - They're currently on hiatus, but I still think the back log of this podcast is worth going through! The conversations are lively and relatable for Etsy shop owners and handmade businesses.
• Etsy Success Podcast - While I don't pay my Etsy shop much attention, I still think it's worth keeping up with the leading name in the handmade industry. They have valuable insight in shopping trends, spending trends, and all sorts of SEO info that is useful even without an Etsy shop. 
• The Potters Cast - 600+ episodes later and Paul Blais is still going! Everyone has a unique story to tell and Paul is a great interviewer.
• The Mud Peddlers - Am I biased because they interviewed me? Maybe....BUT Lindsey and Donte have awesome conversations surrounding the intersection of ceramics, business, and nerd. What could be better?? 
• Boldli Podcast - One more ceramics podcast for the list! I'm sure there's more out there, but I've been enjoying their interviews with artists of all kinds, not just potters.
• The Goal Digger Podcast​ - Okay, last one! This podcast is a little cheesy, but it's another "thing big" type of podcast for me. Intention setting, email marketing, and work life balance are common themes.

Hopefully this list will help round out your podcast library! I'm always looking for more podcasts, let me know your favorites!
