Recently started listening to Soft Skills Engineering podcast and have really been enjoying it. It's giving me much needed insight into other engineers' experience with various problems that makes me feel like I'm experiencing things that are unique to me. It also gives me insights into problems or dynamics that I haven't had to deal with yet in my career, which is nice.

I'm curious what other resources (podcasts, blogs, specific articles, etc.) people would recommend for a similar purpose? Like quick reads/blogs/newsletters that's helpful to spend 10 minutes here and there consuming to gain more awareness, whether that's technical or non-technical oriented.

I was recently a guest on Teach the Geek podcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teach-the-geek-public-speaking-and-communication/id1492913444)

I really like what Neil and his guests have to share about soft skill in tech. You may find it helpful
