Books I Finished
This book has changed the way I look at habit building. James Clear lays it out in simple terms that really make you wonder why you've never thought of it that way. I've already read this book 4x and I only expect to read it a lot more.
Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones
This is perfect for the people-pleasers (like me). What I love most is that she gives actual scripts and scenarios you can use and apply in all areas of your life. Another multi-visit read for me.
The Book of Boundaries: Set Your Limits
A great book on positive psychology and the value in focusing on your strengths vs. weaknesses.
Strengths Based Leadership w/ Access Code
I love all things Brene Brown.
Dare to Lead: Brave Work, Tough Talks
So many great insights on building a healthy workplace culture and where burnout often stems from.
Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together
While this book is geared toward marketing for business owners, there are plenty of good takeaways for individuals as you consider how to position your value.
Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message
This honestly should be required reading for every human being.
