Greetings,

It's July, which means it's time for our annual summer learning list. This year, we're sharing favorite podcasts from our community of lifelong learners.

The content and tips found in many of these podcasts mirror what we value: practicality, inspiration, and what we call "calm achievement." Calm achievement is our core operating principle: consistently doing great work for our clients, while managing ourselves and the business for long-term growth and sustainability.

We hope you find a new source of insight on the list below.

Podcasts to explore this summer:

• Think Fast, Talk Smart - strategic communication techniques for public speaking, speaking off the cuff, and more
• The Anxious Achiever - conversations about work and mental health and how to do both better
