Hello {{ subscriber.first_name | capitalize() or "friend" }},

Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg
McKeown
|
I speak often about priorities, focus, time, and energy. In Essentialism, Greg McKeown explores these topics further. It’s not a book about how to get
the most things done, it’s a book about getting the RIGHT things done.
“In Essentialism, Greg McKeown makes a compelling case for achieving more by doing less. He reminds us that clarity of focus and the ability to say ‘no’ are both critical and undervalued in business today.”
- Jeff Weiner, CEO, LinkedIn

Ready to uncover the strength you have hiding under the surface and get empowered to take on the world? Glennon Doyle gets
vulnerable and teaches us to do the same in Untamed. She shares how she found herself and courageously let go of all the expectations others had for her.
“Some books shake you by the shoulders while others steal your heart. In Untamed, Glennon does both at the exact same time.”
- Brene Brown

The Intimacy of Race by Eva Medilek
What does it mean to be an ally to the Black community?
This is what we tackle in my all-inclusive guidebook for supporters of BIPOC. This book contains real, simple, digestible, action steps that you can immediately take to begin the work of dismantling your privilege and to become an effective agent of change for racial justice.
"You will want to buy copies for your friends! A contribution as powerful as White Fragility and My Grandmother's Hands; The Intimacy of Race is a compelling look at what white allies can do to dissolve our own blind spots and stand up for the end of Institutional racism."
Teresa de Grosbois - #1 International Bestselling Author
