BOOKS I RECOMMEND

I am excited to share this list of transformative books with you as you start a journey of self-discovery and meaning, just as I once did. These have been hand-picked just for you and I believe can be life-transforming because they profoundly influenced my own path.
It is my wish that these illuminate your way and guide you toward authenticity and purpose. May they bring you the same liberation, peace, and answers they brought to me.
An additional suggestion: If, like myself, you derive pleasure from reading but lead a hectic life that limits your available time, and if, you often succumb to drowsiness or struggle to find moments to read as I do, Audiobooks present a splendid alternative. Many of these literary works are skillfully narrated by their authors, an aspect that I find personally uplifting and captivating.
