Podcasts for the Grown-Up Kid in You: 7 Podcasts to Lighten the Load

Sit back, relax, press play, and listen to these podcasts that will guide you through insightful adulting adventures with a sprinkle of humour

However, adulthood also comes with challenges, like taking responsibility for yourself, becoming financially independent, and making important decisions. But apart from this, keeping emotions in check as you go through everyday life is just as important. Therefore, we’ve compiled a list of podcasts where hosts share personal stories, advice, life tips, relationships, and more.

1/7 Anything Goes with Emma Chamberlain

Recorded from the comfort of her bed, exactly like the name suggests, “Anything Goes” is US internet sensation Emma Chamberlain’s platform for talking about whatever is on her mind, and clearly, she has a huge audience. Sometimes she offers advice, sometimes her opinion on a topic, sometimes philosophy, or a random story from 10 years ago. Fans love Emma’s relatability and how she stands out from the social media image of perfection. 

2/7 Small Doses with Amanda Seales
