Books I Read 📖 (I Actually Mostly Listen 🎧)
Beyond Anxiety by Martha Beck
Anxiety doesn’t mean something’s wrong with you. It means your brain is doing its job, but is stuck in a loop.
This book offers a calm, clear path out. Using curiosity, creativity, and connection, Beck demonstrates how to transition from survival mode into a state of flow.
Underground Empire by Henry Farrell and Abraham Newman
The global economy runs on invisible infrastructure. The U.S. controls much of it.
This book reveals how America has turned cables, servers, banks, and standards into tools of power, shaping geopolitics through finance, tech, and surveillance. It’s not a conspiracy. It’s how the system works.
Start with Why by Simon Sinek
People don’t buy what you do. They buy why you do it.
This book explains how the most inspiring leaders and companies operate with a clear sense of purpose. When you start with why, everything else follows—loyalty, trust, and lasting impact.
Find Your Why by Simon Sinek, David Mead & Peter Docker
Building on Start With Why, this practical guide shows you how to discover and apply your WHY—whether you’re fueling a career, team, or organization. Through step-by-step exercises, illustrations, and reflection prompts, the authors help you:
Articulate your core purpose.
Align actions with values.
Foster deeper connection and fulfillment at work.
For anyone ready to move from inspiration to action, this is your roadmap.
Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek
Great leaders put their people first.
Sinek explores how trust, safety, and shared purpose create stronger teams and better results. Drawing from biology, history, and business, he shows why empathy is the real edge—and why leadership is about service, not status.
