Gumption

By: Lily Switka
  • Summary

  • Gumption is calling... will you answer?

    Let's face it, nobody has it all figured out. But a little bit of uncertainty never stops us doers from creating the life of our dreams. Inspired by Nancy Meyers' 2006 romantic comedy, The Holiday, this podcast is your ultimate guide to becoming the main character of your own life (and having a blast while doing it).

    Hosted by the ever-adventurous Lily Switka a.k.a. Lil, we are on a quest to bring stories of gumption from the world, right to you. Together we'll explore funky fresh topics, with biweekly meet-cutes of Lil's featured guests. Spanning from the silly to the vulnerable, we are here to inspire action, make you laugh, and learn a lot about ourselves and the world around us.

    Listen and interact on Spotify, Apple, or anywhere you get your podcasts! And don't forget to join the party on Instagram (@GumptionPod) for announcements, memes, and tons of light-hearted fun.

  • Mini-sode: All Things Fall!
    Oct 14 2024

    Trying new things! Trying new things! Gumption's first mini-sode riffs on your host Lil's favorite season.

    Last year, we watched ALL the spooky movies, so you don't have to (it was fun though, so you should). Even better, we ranked them. Find the full list of movie recommendations here.

    Plus a lil background on why fall feels like fall, from a spiritual perspective, and how that might impact your creativity and motivation.
