Leadership, self-confidence, retraining, meaning at work, emotions, commitment... Here are 7 podcasts that are good for the head (and morale): 

Odace - Dare to be yourself, really

Do you have questions about your path? Do you want to move, but don't dare to take the first step? Then Odace, this is for you. This podcast gives a voice to people who have dared to change their lives, reinvent themselves or affirm their values in their professional career.

Let It Slow - Slow down to move forward

In a world where everything goes (too) fast, Let It Slow invites you to breathe. This podcast offers you another tempo: that of awareness, balance and respect for your own rhythm. 🌱

Over the course of the episodes, you explore topics such as mental load, addiction to performance, daily stress and the search for meaning. The tone is gentle, intelligent, never moralistic. There is talk of slowing down, yes, but to regain power over one's time.

👉 Perfect if you feel the need to slow down, without feeling guilty, to find a little inner clarity.

Metro, Work, Finito - Bye bye ready-made boxes

Burn-out, reconversion, quest for meaning : the episodes give a voice to those who have dared to lift their heads from the handlebars to invent another way of working. ✨ Powerful and sometimes very funny testimonies, which uninhibit and awaken.

👉 To put in your ears if you feel that "working for the sake of working" is no longer enough for you.

Sets the pace - Reconnect with yourself to move forward differently

Set the pace, it's the podcast that speaks to you in your ear when everything around you is going too fast. He invites you to slow down, to listen to what is happening inside you and to choose your own tempo, whether in your personal or professional life.

Each episode is a moment of guided introspection , a bubble out of the tumult to think differently about your relationship to work, time, commitment. We talk about disconnection, retraining, self-confidence, but also about alignment, choice and that famous balance that we are all trying to achieve. 

The voice is calm, the words are right and the questions resonate long after listening. No magic recipe here, just a series of episodes to help you find your own rhythm, the one that allows you to feel aligned with what you do.

If I Had Believed - What We Learn... once you have dared

If I had believed it, it's the podcast that gives a voice to those who have dared to change paths, launch themselves into the unknown or simply listen to what vibrated in them. Once on the other side, they tell with sincerity what they wish they had known before.

No idealized success story here, but authentic testimonies, full of hindsight, doubts... and small revelations. Each episode is a conversation that feels good: we talk about reconversion, leaps into the void, sometimes complicated realities, but also about what we gain by thinking outside the box.
