20 Wellness Podcasts That’ll Elevate Your Emotional & Spiritual Health

wellness podcasts

As a New Yorker, I’m commuting a lot which means I have a lot of time to kill. Plus it is basically part of the dress code in NYC to wear headphones—particularly while commuting.

Sure, sometimes nothing is playing in them and they’re used as an armor to avoid conversations, but most of the time I’m listening to one of my favorite wellness podcasts. I didn’t get into wellness podcasts until recently, but now I’m obsessed. There are so many smart, inspirational, and wonderful people out there willing to share their voice, and I for one want to hear them out.

I love learning and opening my mind to new perspectives, so I am sharing the voices that have helped me the most. This round-up includes 20 of my all-time favorite wellness podcasts that truly will elevate your life emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. Think of this as wellness for your ears.

The Elevator

I’ll be honest, this wellness podcast from the ladies of Elevate the Globe is one of my personal favorites. Britt and Tara have such a light and power to them, it makes it easy to melt into an episode even on the craziest of commutes. They use their podcast to discuss ancient and modern spiritual principles, practices, and tools to elevate the vibration of your own energy.

Long Distance Love Bombs

Dr. Jeremy Goldberg (aka @longdistancelovebombs on Instagram) is out to make kindness cool, and I think he’s doing a great job. On his podcast, he talks to people who aim to shift perspectives towards a more conscious and compassionate collective.

Spark Intention

I guest-starred on this one! On my episode, we talked about anxiety, self-love, and spirituality. When I asked Jenna about her intentions with her podcast, she said, “My hope for the podcast is that by sharing my experiences and inviting guests to share theirs, we can show that we all have mental health, there’s nothing to be ashamed of, and we are not alone.”

Mark Groves

@createthelove and @beingisbeautiful are my favorite Instagram wellness couple to follow. They’re both incredibly inspirational, and it’s no wonder they fell in love. Mark Groves’s podcast is just the cherry on top to their content, and it explores the complex world of relationships and connection.

Almost 30

I had the opportunity to meet these ladies at POPSUGAR Playground after they spoke, and I was definitely fangirling hard. From spirituality to wellness to business—they talk about it all on their podcast in a raw and real fashion. I had the chance to chat with Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik to get a better sense of their backstory and the impact Almost 30 has on their community.


How does your podcast elevate a listener's life?

KW: The power of Almost 30 is really in the community we have built around us. When we started out, we held these small events in our friend's backyard with groups of women and saw the power of connection when we laid the foundation of vulnerability and honesty. We have never claimed to know it all, or be experts, but we have promised to be authentic and vulnerable with our audience and have done so since day one.

After hosting these events, we wanted to make them more accessible for everyone, and brought healers, leaders, speakers out to share powerful learnings and experiences when we went on tour. With the success of that, we wanted to find a place where even the cities we didn't reach when traveling could connect, so our ambassador program was born.

Now with 80 chapters all over the world, women meet everywhere to feel supported, loved, seen. The podcast is our foundation really, it provides the basis for everything, the learning, the growth, the intention, and then from there we have become a movement of sorts.

LS: There is so much power in feeling less alone. There is a community behind the podcast that provides support, reassurance, empathy, guidance, and realness that has helped so many women navigate relationships, the pursuit of their dreams, their health journeys and so much more. We are way more powerful together. Krista and I have seen the butterfly effect when one woman gives words of encouragement to another, that woman will share the love in so many other ways.

What's your one key piece of life advice for a potential or current listener?

KW: My life began when I started to participate in it actively. I remember for so long living in Ohio in a small town, I didn't know how much power I had in controlling my life and my destiny, and when I started to take risks, live in alignment (in small ways), meditate, and take care of myself, it felt like I was finally present to participate and be in conversation with the universe about my destiny. My piece of advice for anyone and for our listeners has been similar, to meditate so you can help to cultivate that conversation with yourself. The quiet and breath allow you to connect in ways that seem almost impossible outside of it.

LS: Patience and presence. I found that I was spending so much time wishing I was farther along in life or wanting to be living or looking another way. As a result, I was missing the incredible people, moments, opportunities, and version of ME in front of me. So while I encourage personal growth, I also want to remind women to be here now. You're doing great. Direct your love, energy, and talents to this very moment, the only one that you can control.

This wellness podcast gives a fresh, modern voice to ancient wisdom and charts new maps for old souls.

They both provided more insight into their work, and I invite you to give that a read (and their podcast a listen)!


How does your podcast inspire listeners and differentiate from other podcasts?

AB & MG: Spirit Guides Radio brings a fresh voice to the study and practice of spirituality, with an intent to inform, inspire, and ignite modern mystics. The guests we invite to the show each week are experts in their respective fields and we love sharing their magic with our listeners. In addition to our palpable zest for life and love for each other, we try to bring levity and wit to the serious topics we explore, which makes us more accessible than your average spiritual podcast! We want our listeners to learn something, question everything, and have a blast while doing it.

What's the best advice you hope listeners get out of listening to your podcast?

AB & MG: We talk a lot about "permission slips" on the podcast, and we love to present our listeners with all the spiritual wisdom we can so they can use what resonates and grant themselves permission to live their highest vibe life. That said, our number one piece of life advice is to be authentic at any cost—to do what works best for you. At the core, spirituality is authenticity. So you do you, whatever kind of unique that looks like—permission granted!

I’ve had the pleasure of attending a couple of touchpoint events myself.
