Awesome Podcasts for Small Creative Business

I love listening to Jess' Create and Thrive podcasts each week. Her voice is soft and lilting - not a strong annoying accent - and I often find I'm giggling to myself over her little stories and anecdotes :)
I enjoy listening to them while on my morning walk after dropping off my daughter at school, so will often go back and listen to them more than once. But I really appreciate the effort she goes into providing an informative and free podcast with lots of tips and details about how you -- can -- have a successful handmade business as a creative, yet not get too crazy with it and still enjoy your life!! Definitely recommend to all creatives out there!
