    I read a chapter of New Happy by Stephanie Harrison for you

    In this episode, I'm diving into The New Happy by Stephanie Harrison and sharing my thoughts on the chapter "How We Got It All So Wrong." I first discovered Stephanie's work through her brand, The New Happy, which features vibrant and colorful illustrations that beautifully capture emotions like happiness, anxiety, and doubt. Her visual approach to complex feelings really resonated with me, so I was excited to explore her book. Stephanie Harrison's work stood out to me because she combines research-backed insights with accessible, beautiful visuals that make complex psychological concepts easy to understand. The New Happy isn't just about feeling good—it's about redefining what happiness means in our lives. In this chapter, Stephanie explores how our modern understanding of happiness has been shaped by cultural narratives that often miss the mark. She challenges conventional wisdom about what makes us truly happy and offers fresh perspectives on building a more meaningful life. What are your thoughts on happiness?

    I read chapters of The Pathless Path by Paul Millerd for you

    In this episode, I dive into The Pathless Path by Paul Millerd, exploring two powerful chapters that challenge conventional thinking about work and purpose: The Trap of Meaningful Work and We Want to be Useful. Can the pursuit of "meaningful work" become a trap that keeps us stuck? Paul Millerd challenges the assumption that we need to find the perfect career that aligns with our purpose, and instead offers a different perspective on how to think about work and fulfillment. The second chapter examines our deep-seated desire to be useful and how it shapes our relationship with work. Paul Millerd discusses how this drive can both motivate and limit us, and what it means to redefine usefulness on our own terms.

    I read a chapter of Super Skill by Joe Lazer for you

    In this episode, I'm diving into Super Skill by Joe Lazer, specifically the chapter titled "Lead Through Stories." Stories are one of the most effective tools for leaders to communicate vision, values, and lessons in a way that resonates emotionally with their team. Unlike facts and data alone, stories create memorable narratives that people can connect with on a personal level, making complex ideas easier to understand and remember. Sharing authentic stories—including challenges and failures—helps leaders build deeper trust and rapport with their teams. Every leader should develop a repertoire of stories that illustrate their core principles and the behaviors they want to model (yes, even solopreneurs and solo creators). This chapter reminded me that leadership isn't just about directives and strategy—it's about connection. The stories we tell shape how people understand our vision and motivate them to take action. I'm thinking about what stories from my own experience I can share more intentionally to inspire and guide others.

    I read a chapter of Banana Ball by Jesse Cole for you

    In this episode, I dive into Jesse Cole's "Banana Ball" and explore the chapter titled "Changing the Game." This chapter reveals how Jesse Cole revolutionized baseball by challenging traditional norms and creating an entertainment experience that puts fans first. The Savannah Bananas didn't just tweak baseball—they reimagined it entirely. He prioritized creating memorable experiences over preserving conventional baseball traditions. Every decision was made by asking "What would make this more fun for fans?" rather than "How has this always been done?" In this chapter, he shares stories of trying wild ideas that other teams would never consider—and how those risks paid off in building a devoted fanbase. Questions to ConsiderWhat "rules" in your industry are actually just assumptions that could be challenged?How can you prioritize your audience's experience over industry conventions?What would your work look like if you optimized for delight instead of efficiency?

    I read a chapter of Slow Productivity by Cal Newport for you

    In this episode, I dive into Cal Newport's Slow Productivity, focusing on the chapter titled "Obsess Over Quality." This chapter explores how a relentless focus on producing high-quality work can be more sustainable and fulfilling than simply working to make more money. In this chapter, Cal Newport argues that obsessing over the quality of your output naturally slows down your pace but leads to better, more meaningful results. Adopting a craftsperson's approach to your work—where excellence is the primary goal—can reduce burnout and increase satisfaction. By concentrating on fewer projects but executing them exceptionally well, you build a reputation and create work that stands the test of time. Quality work takes time. Embracing the slower pace as a feature, not a bug, of sustainable productivity. This chapter resonated with me as a reminder that constantly churning out content or projects isn't always the answer. Sometimes, the most productive thing we can do is slow down and ensure what we're creating truly matters.
