Whether you want to reinvigorate your business planning for the next quarter or get some inspiration from corporate giants, this roundup of business-minded podcasts should fit the bill and provide hours of listening.

Business Wars

Business Wars by Wondery is one of my favorite business podcasts. No, you won’t learn how to finance your small business or write a business plan. Instead, it’s an interesting series of the stories and struggles behind today’s most visible companies — Netflix vs. Blockbuster, Walmart vs. Amazon, The North Face vs. Patagonia, and the list goes on. Business Wars is a much-needed mental break from the day-to-day grind; nonetheless, it perfectly captures the entrepreneurial spirit.Desiree Cunningham, Markitors

How I Built This

How I Built This with Guy Raz is my favorite podcast for business owners. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to become an entrepreneur or learn more about growing a business. It’s great for days when you need a dose of inspiration, too! Guy digs into the stories of some of the biggest companies and how they came to be such big successes. His interviews with some of the most successful entrepreneurs get raw and cover everything from mistakes, self-doubt, late nights, sacrifices, and triumphs. You’ll love being able to absorb nuggets of information that you can then take and apply to your own business to hopefully be more successful! The most powerful reminder is that even the most successful entrepreneurs are human and had to endure a lot of struggles to get to where they are today. Sara Shah, Journ
