MAIA FAVORITE THINGS: BOOKS TO READ

There are a lot of items that keep the ship that is my life running (hello life support please?!) It feels rude to keep them all to myself, so I will be sharing the things I love that keep my work, kids, and self in thriving mode.

First up is the book that has driven so much of my courage. The first year Happy Medium was on the Inc. 5000 list, we attended the conference and the headline speaker was Brene Brown. I had never heard of her, and her message immediately made an impact on me. I went home and read her book and have read every one of the other books shes written since. I have her quotes everywhere and lean so heavily into her words, not only because they inspire me, but I’ve truly connected with them as she is ultimately a researcher of shame. If you haven’t read Daring Greatly yet, order it now here and reread it every year alongside me. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!
