The last time I checked, there were about 4.5 million podcasts out in the world 🎧
So how do you know which ones are worth your time?
This week on the blog, I’m sharing 5 of my go-to podcasts hosted by incredible women leaders.
They’re the ones I come back to again and again because they remind me that even the most accomplished women face struggles…and that real growth often comes from the messy, in-between moments.
1. Aspire with Emma Grede @aspirewithemmagrede
2. The Liz Moody Podcast @lizmoody
3. Moments That Make Us with Melinda French Gates @melindafrenchgates
4. Into The Wild with Renee Warren @renee_warren
5. Coaching Real Leaders with Muriel Wilkins @coachmurielwilkins
These shows offer a mix of career advice, mindset resets, and inspiring real-life stories you can carry with you long after you hit pause.
Any others you would recommend?

AI can be amazing… but it doesn’t read minds (not yet) 😉
In this week’s post, I put together a simple 6-part framework so you don’t have to learn AI the hard way.
Think of it as the recipe card I wish I had when I started experimenting.
Inside you’ll find:
✔ How task + context change everything (for the better)
✔ Why format and tone matter more than you’d think
✔ Real before-and-after examples to show how it works
Chime in if you have any other helpful tips for getting the most out of these buzz worthy AI tools!

A little Career Insight Studio inspo to start the week…
Progress over perfection.
It’s the pep talk I give myself every. single. day.
Show up.
Experiment.
Learn.
Grow.
Because the messy first draft is still a step forward.
And moving forward is the whole point.
So take the step.
Hit publish.
Raise your hand.
Send the email.
Ask for the help you need.
It’s not comfortable but your future self will thank you.
At least that’s what I say to myself on repeat these days 😉

• Why visibility and personal connections matter more than ever
• Practical ways to help—whether it’s offering your time, your strengths, or simply checking in

👉 If you’ve ever found yourself unsure of how to offer support, Charlene’s advice will provide the clarity we all need.
