Are you looking for some inspiration for your summer reading list? In this episode of The Coaching Hub Podcast, I invite you into my world of summer reflection, journaling, and building your own resource library. I share how revisiting your own journals can be just as powerful as picking up the latest coaching bestseller, and how to find the books, podcasts, and tools that meet you (and your clients) where you are right now.

Whether you’re journaling, reading, or listening this summer, let your curiosity lead the way and discover just how transformative it can be, for both you and your clients.

Here are the Highlights:

00:00 Introduction: Why summer is the perfect time to read and reflect

01:08 The value of revisiting your own journals for growth and insight

03:31 Feeding your brain: Different ways to learn, from books to podcasts

04:11 Choosing books that align with your coaching interests (I love neuroscience!)

05:55 Expanding your horizons by exploring outside your usual frame of reference

07:28 The balance between curiosity and protecting what you feed your brain

08:21 Challenging your biases and considering different perspectives
