These are my must-read books filled with immediately-applicable wisdom and truths that help us grow, and lift up humanity. In other words—these are the books that I carry around with me, are filled with highlighting, bent corners, and post-it notes, and are the books that are truly a gift that keeps on giving.

My recommendations:

Clarity and Connection and The Way Forward by Yung Pueblo

Clarity and Connection and The Way Forward are my personal favorites, but if I could make up a "reading mandate,” this would be the series that I would have all of humanity read, and re-read, at least once every few years.

Growth Mindset by Carol Dweck

Leading Without Authority by Keith Ferrazzi (I love the co-elevating concept.)

Radical Candor by Kim Scott

Any book by Brene Brown

Hidden Potential by Adam Grant (And follow him on LinkedIn, his posts speak wisdom and truth we can all learn from.)
