Books to live by.
(Last Updated: November 4, 2020)
Books have had a profound impact on my life. They’ve been there to help me through a divorce, job loss, manifesting what I desire, and improving my mindset. I’m a voracious reader and you can usually find me with a book in hand (or handbag) wherever I am. I’ve divided these lists into what I’m currently reading and my list of all-time life-changers (categorized by life areas). Enjoy!
This page will be updated regularly, so check back often!
