Books

In my books, I explore things more comprehensively than I do in my articles, podcast and weekly email newsletter 3 Thing$. In these digital pages, I aspire to deliver a five-course meal for the brain. If you’re curious about where my love of books comes from, I wrote about this in the article ‘Every book I’ve ever read’. Thank you for being a curious learner. Enjoy!
