4 Books I Want All My Clients to Read

And Why YOU Should Read Each One

I’m a work in progress. Recently, I realized how inflexible I can be (a topic I cover in other posts). Along with greater self-awareness, reading inspiring books has sparked major shifts in my attitude—second only to the influence of people and life experiences.

There are 2 major perspective shifts I hope sink in for me and my clients each day.

Two Perspective Shifts

Shift #1: Be Flexible: You have choices—you’re not trapped. Rigidity fuels fear; flexibility brings balance, freedom, and hope. With an open mind and heart, you expect the best, accept others as they are, and act on truth rather than feelings.
Shift #2: Be Yourself: Being honest with yourself takes courage—and few choose it. Self-honesty builds self-awareness, helping you see your worth and live it boldly, despite the urge to hide. You’ll take risks, build thriving relationships, and stop settling.
