Hi friends!
I hope you’re having a wonderful holiday! I know this time of year can also be tough, so if that resonates with you, I am sending you a big, big hug.
As you read this, I’m still on my break from work, enjoying unplugged time with my loved ones. Before I left, I prepared a few fun roundups for you that I hope you’ll enjoy!
Today’s roundup is all about the books and shows/movies that impacted me the most this year. I believe it’s so important to be intentional about taking time to do things that inspire us, help us think differently, and open our eyes to different perspectives.
I have always loved reading. I’ve found some of my greatest mentors in books, and many of the ideas I’ve implemented in my life and business are a result of the books I’ve read. And when it comes to watching movies—especially documentaries and biopics—I have learned so much about the world and about history, and I’ve been exposed to experiences and perspectives that are so different from my own. Without question, the habit of intentionally taking time to do things that help expand my mindset has been instrumental and invaluable to my growth as a human and leader. (In fact, I am probably reading or watching something as you are reading this because I tend to do that a lot on breaks!)
I’ve compiled a list of the top books and films that inspired me most this year. Every title that made the list checked these three boxes:
So, without further ado, these are the books and films that had the biggest impact on me in 2023!
