Books

Mindset (Carol Dweck, Ph.D.) – This book talks about natural ability being overrated and that hard work, trial and error, and belief that skills can be learned is the road to success.

The Gifts of Imperfection (Brene Brown Ph.D.) – What fuels perfectionism is shame, the feeling of being innately unworthy/wrong.

Daring Greatly: How the Courage to be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead (Brene Brown Ph.D.) – More on shame and its antidote: allowing ourselves to be vulnerable and self-compassionate.

The Untethered Soul (Michael Singer) – a spiritual book about opening our heart to pain and therefore joy versus shutting it down to avoid pain.

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking (Susan Cain) – a wonderful self-validation for introverts in our extroverted American culture.

The Hunger Fix (Pam Peeke, M.D.) – a detox plan and lifestyle change for people who feel addicted to unhealthy eating habits.
