I’m kind of late to the podcast game, having only recently picked up the habit of listening to them. I’m not cool so I haven’t listened to Serial or anything super trendy or noteworthy. One series I do religiously listen to is Oprah’s SuperSoul Conversations — I am O-bsessed (dork alert). Whenever I’m feeling particularly stressed or overwhelmed, I’ll listen to an episode to channel my inner Oprah and gain some perspective and wisdom. (Full disclosure, listening to SuperSoul has made me tear up on the train on the way to work, countless times.)
Oprah’s conversation with Amy Purdy, who lost both her limbs at 19 tand then went on to win bronze in snowboarding at the Paralympics has been ingrained in my mind forever. Whenever I’m feeling particularly overwhelmed, thinking back to this episode inspires me to find the strength to overcome my own challenges.
