Recommended Resources
It can be hard to navigate the world of educational and self-help books. To help, I’ve put together a curated list of my personal must-reads, covering a range of topics. Whether you choose one or dive into them all, the choice is yours! I’ve also included a few podcast recommendations for when you’d rather listen than read. I’m sure many of these books come in audio formats, too. My hope is that these resources offer insight, encouragement, and inspiration for your own journey. This list will continue to grow as I discover new gems worth sharing.
