#ON MY NIGHTSTAND
I’m always reading multiple books at a time. On my Kindle is Signs—The Secret Language of the Universe by Laura Lynne Jackson (I believe the signs from our loved ones are there … you just have to look for them). On Audible is Not All Diamonds and Rosé by Dave Quinn (If you like The Real Housewives series, this is a great listen.). And finally in hardcover is Give & Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success by Adam Grant (a fascinating read about how our interactions with others shape our success).
#ON MY MOBILE
LinkedIn is my go-to social platform. I use it religiously for networking in business, and my feed is full of content around recruiting, retention, human leadership, employee wellness, and workplace culture. I also try to use my voice as a thought leader for topics that are important to me.
#IN MY EARBUDS
Two of my favorite podcasts are The SimplyBe. Podcast with Jessica Zweig and Dear FoundHer… with Lindsey Pinchuk. Both shows happen to be hosted by local gals who are authentic and inspiring and are must-listens for any woman in business.
