I first heard about the FIRE movement on Reddit, but the way it was presented there felt too strict to me and put me off of the idea. That was until I decided to search for some financial podcasts to listen to at work and stumbled upon ChooseFI.

They made the lifestyle changes feel easier to accomplish and didn't make it feel like pursuing a FIRE path would take away from my current lifestyle.

Overall it's just been easy listening and has really fired me me up to take control of my financial future.
