Hello you!
While I haven’t been consuming Instagram over the summer I’ve been consuming a lot worth sharing with you. Ready?
Let’s get straight into it…
Books
The war of art by Steven Pressfield is a book I’ve had sitting in my audible for a long time. I started listening to it a year or so ago but it felt too harsh for where I was then. This time around I got a lot out of it. I didn’t agree with everything but it certainly helped me and if you need a kick up the backside with your creativity then I think is one for you.
Mating in captivity by Esther Perel is another book that had been sitting in audible un-listened to. I’m scepitcal about a lot of relationship content and advice I see online, especially the kind that triggers me but Esther Perel I feel I can trust. Her book is so knowledgable and insightful. She covers sex, having children, affairs, jealousy and how to keep a relationship alive throughout the whole thing.
I will teach you to be rich by Ramit Sethi is a book I wish they taught in schools. I have completely overhauled my finances, set and stuck to a budget and learned how to invest in the stock market myself thanks to this book. Incredible! It’s American but you can apply what Sethi talks about to the UK finance world too.
Darling by India Knight is a book recommended via the Instagram fam so I had a good idea I’d enjoy it but wow, I loved it! It’s a beautiful novel by one of my favourite writers who sentence after sentence proves why. It’s so clever, funny and wholesome all at once.
