I have kinda become a bit of a bookworm over the past few years. I have dove headfirst into the personal development deep end and I’m totally okay with it. Today I’m sharing a bit of a round-up of some of the books I’ve read and re-read over the years that have impacted my life and my business.

Most of these books I have listened to on Audible. There is no way I have time to sit down and read all of these books in paper format. I love that audible keeps my entire library in my back pocket! As you can see there is a pretty big array of subjects here, from parenting to money mindset, to habit-forming.
