Love Pivot, also Dorie Clark- the long game, entrepreneurial you, Holly Ransom- the Leading Edge and Angela Duckworth-Grit. So many good reads to choose from.

Gosh, so many, Frances! The second I hit Publish, I then remembered at least 5 more titles I could have added..

So many good recommendations here and some that are new to me that are now on me “read when I need it” list. So happy to see Pivot here, the book that brought me back to CliftonStrengths and introduced me to Jenny (and ultimately you!).

Yes, Maghan! I actually discovered Clifton Strengths because of Pivot, too!! And we need a new word/phrase for books that bring people together.

Ooh - I love a good non fiction book list - thank you! I'm adding a few of your books from this list to my 'to read' list. I'd add Company of One, by Paul Jarvis - a very helpful read about thinking through what you are really trying to create for yourself when you run your own business. I'd also add a couple of Cal Newport's books if you're keen to do more deep work (literally, not metaphorically). Great for anyone with a busy mind and feeling overwhelmed by a desire to 'do it all'. You can do it all - just not all at once! Deep Work and Slow Productivity - in any order - are a good start for Cal Newport's books.

Oh, I will grab that Paul Jarvis book, thank you! Cal is fantastic, love his approach, I've heard him on a ton of podcasts. Thanks for the recommendations, KPH!
