Podcast Picks: PurelyPope Style!

Today we’re talking PODCASTS! One of my favorite past times. Well, not technically not past time. I typically am listening to podcasts while getting something else done. For example, doing the dishes, driving, showering, cleaning, etc. I took this tip from one of my favorites, Lauryn Evarts to always be learning and to be the most productive with your time. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes my mind just needs a BREAK and I can’t do a podcast but typically I like to really maximize my time in every situation. Alright, so let’s get into shall we?
