I discovered John a few years ago, but sadly, this is my first review. As a minister, I am never looking for things to do as leading a church, serving the people, and first and foremost leading my own family can easily take all of my time. All It Takes Is A Goal has been my constant companion,...Read full review »

Jon, your recent podcast about wisdom hit me so close to the heart. I think I speak on behalf of all your listeners when I say that you treat us like friends, and we all wish we could be lucky enough to actually know you. But for an hour a week (or however long the episodes are) we get you all...Read full review »

Recently I was unexpectedly laid off after 25 years with the same company. I told friends that all those hours listening to John Acuff while dog walking are paying off! I feel motivated, encouraged, and excited to try something new. Corny, but the podcast has made me a stronger, more resilient...Read full review »

I listened to his Book, all it Takes is a goal. It’s a great book and his podcast is great! He gives small steps forward to help with your, you guessed it, goals.

I recently discovered Jon Acuff and I can’t get enough. His podcasts are helpful, FUNNY, fresh and interesting. It is the first goal oriented podcast I’ve heard that doesn’t feel like homework. Keep it up!

Jon Acuff has a way of making the impossible seem possible—with honest and true practical methods. He is an unapologetically “uncool,” imperfect Gen Xer dork, and we love him for it. Most people speaking into “self improvement” come across holier than thou—not Jon. He’s one of us, and he gets it.

The title might be a bit of a stretch, but in his book soundtracks, it uncovered that I had multiple soundtracks that needed retiring. I listen to that book multiple times a year to remind me the power of playing true, help, and kind soundtracks.

True story…I recently did something I was really proud of. That night I wrote a note to myself on my phone saying “I like who I am becoming, but am I too old to do this now?” THE NEXT DAY, I listened to an older episode of this podcast and when Jon read the review at the end, this very question...Read full review »

Listened to your latest podcast about parenting and think we should totally start a neo-hardcore metal-trance band called Meatwad.

I subscribe to a lot of podcasts, but this is one of the few that I am sure to listen to every week. There are always so many good nuggets to take action on and moments that make me laugh out loud; maybe it’s relating as a fellow Gen X-er who loves self-improvement, but mostly it’s wonderful to...Read full review »

Thanks for making achieving goals feel so much more doable! I feel like I’ve made more progress in the last month than in years since listening to your podcast and reading Soundtracks. For the first time ever, I’ve culled goals that weren’t for me & worked on tracking the most important...Read full review »

Jon provides encouraging, interesting, and fun ways to think about goals! I often have my teens listen to episodes with me. He is so practical and relatable.
BVaske via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/23
Jon is actually a goal genius. Through utilizing his God-given potential, he’s become brilliant at identifying goal blockers as well as simple, clear, practical solutions for getting past them. Every episode leaves the listener with easily and immediately applicable, action steps. On top of that,...Read full review »

After listening to another podcast Jon Acuff was on, I binge-listened for hours. This is so much more than your typical self-help talk. It’s practical, easy, do-able steps…not just encouraging words. This is going to be life-changing as I implement all these little things to chase my God-given...Read full review »

I’ve loved a couple of Jon’s books (love the laugh-out-loud moments!) and his podcast is even better. As a goal-oriented entrepreneur I find gems of wisdom in literally every episode but there’s so much goodness here for regular people without their own businesses too. I just love Jon’s wisdom,...Read full review »

First off my name is not Gary and I do not listen beside nor on a body of water, that being said this is one of the best ways your can spend you time each week. I’ve been listening to Jon for a decade now (in person) and within the past two years I’ve been listening to his podcast. I came to this...Read full review »

How it started: I was blessed to attend a Keynote where Jon was the speaker. Everything from the content to the delivery had me 100% engaged. When I left the event, I said “I need more”. So I hit up his podcast and it has been life changing. How it’s going: My Dude and I have coffee together...Read full review »

I look forward to the ATG podcast every week. I appreciate the clarity I gain from the practical advice and helpful insights. I’m 55 and have struggled with goal setting all of my life. Your goal setting process you shared in December and January finally helped my to understand the steps. Thank...Read full review »

Jon has a way of helping me see my goals in little steps to accomplish. His wit and his humorous thoughts always make me smile or giggle. I am inching toward my goal. “Inch by inch is a cinch. Yard by yard is hard” -John Bytheway. Thank you Jon! Keep doing your thing.
mdv521 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/23
Jon makes it easy to apply his action steps to ANY goal. As a stay at home mom, most of my goals are around my home. BUT I can still find take aways from every podcast! And it’s it easy “bite size” episodes that I can listen to while my little naps which is AMAZING!!!!

All It Takes Is A Goal is a weekly must-listen for me. I’ve spun the dials a lot looking for insight and support to meet my goals. No one believes more in our ability to meet our goals than Jon Acuff. Taking into account real life—jobs, families, emergencies—Jon always has great ideas about how...Read full review »

Been Listening to Jon for about a year and half, listened to the audiobook of Soundtracks and done a handful of challenges, and he still finds a way to present new and relevant info.

I have been listening to Jon Acuff since the end of 2022, when I heard him on another one of my favorite podcasts. I’ve read his books, I love his podcast. His content if very inspiring, but also light hearted and hilarious. I had one of the most bizarre things happen to me yesterday when I...Read full review »

I have been a fan of Jon Acuff for many years—I love his sense of humor, and when I listen to his podcast I feel like I’m driving with a friend. (I’ve even been known to respond out loud to something he’s talking about.) But not only is the podcast enjoyable to listen to, it is full of wisdom and...Read full review »
Dr. Amy chiro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/23
I’ve grown to dislike personal development circles that promote grinding and have people lose their sense of humour and playfulness - Acuff embodies having a good time and cutting yourself some slack while getting stuff done you value. Highly recommended!
B Taillefer via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/15/23
Love all of Jon’s books and I look forward to his podcast each week. Please consider adding the challenges (like the Beyond Perfect Challenge coming up) as podcast episodes as well! It would be much easier to listen to while walking or mowing (Facebook and YouTube don’t make it super easy to...Read full review »

Jon has a way of relaying useful content while making you laugh and think at the same time. I’m always recording voice memos during his podcast because I don’t want to forget some of his points. I’m SO glad this podcast drops on Monday mornings, because it allows me to start me week off on a...Read full review »

I have read several of Jon’s books and am very excited about his new one. They are awesome to listen to as audiobooks. I only recently discovered his podcast. It’s both entertaining and full of amazing insights. It might just make you want to spontaneously clap too ;)
Mhponce via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/23
I have been following Jon on the socials for probably about 7 years now. I have been listening to this podcast since it’s inception and I really love all the practical advice Jon gives with his endearing sense of humor. I feel like he is rooting for my goals! Thank you Jon.
alwaysdreamindisney via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/23
I just started following and have only listened to three episodes but what a treasure chest of insights. Especially loved the interview with David Nurse - which says a lot about this content since I’m the furtherest from an athlete as one can be! Will be implementing some of these strategies TODAY.
shellys1216 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/23
Love the variety of your guests! I didn’t catch his last name but I did catch SNAP and how that can change a moment!! Stop, notice, assess, pivot!! Great info thru the entire show! Loved it and love your style!

Most of my life, I didn’t think I could achieve goals, but Jon has proved me wrong!

As I progress thru the past podcasts (just passed 90), this has quickly become one of my favorites with something within each episode to take and implement in my daily life.
Colpittsb via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/03/23
Most of the podcasts I listen to are during my commute time. I appreciate the idea of gaining knowledge and growth even while driving. ATG has changed that process! I may still listen on my commute, but I know I will need to listen a second or third time each week while I have the ability to take...Read full review »

I first heard Jon on another podcast where he was sharing the idea behind Soundtracks. When I tuned into his podcast I felt called out. He starts a lot of episodes with a little talk about how sound guys have heard it all, and, as a former live audio engineer, I know that feeling. I’ve worked...Read full review »
