The first thing you need to know about any list like this is, it is not exhaustive. By any means. There are SO many good sites, blogs, podcasts, and other resources out there and any list that I start to compile eventually becomes unwieldy. So, these are some of my favorites, but not all. I often hesitate when putting a list like this together because I know that I’m going to forget someone. So, just know that this is just a jumping off point…
Although some of the resources listed are included in specific categories, many of them don’t neatly fit into one specific folder. Also, lots are multi-modal, meaning they are blogs, podcasts, social media, etc. Just start exploring and find what you like. And, by all means, if you find a favorite that isn’t listed here, share it with me!
