Ep 38: Books for Growth
/This episode is for you if you’re seeking books to expand your perspective.
Reading and personal development are two of my passions, and when they intertwine it’s like heaven.
I’ve broken down personal growth books into 4 categories:
Introspection
Spirituality
Body
Humanity
Or, put another way: Discovering ourselves, finding God, connecting to our body, and learning about others.
