  ๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 23 โ€“ The Messy Middle by Scott Belsky I first heard about this book while listening to a podcast, and I have to admitโ€”it couldnโ€™t have come at a better time. Weโ€™re smack in the middle of the yearโ€”according to the Gregorian calendar.A point where many of us are quietly looking back at the past six months wondering what worked, what didnโ€™t, andโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 22 โ€“ The Diary of a CEO by Steven Bartlett I know itโ€™s a popular title, and youโ€™ve probably seen it on shelves, in reels, or on someoneโ€™s desk. But this time, itโ€™s not just another trending read. Itโ€™s the right book for this moment. There are seasons when we need deep reflection, not just about what weโ€™re doingโ€”but why weโ€™re doing it, how weโ€™re showingโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 21 โ€“ The Light We Carry by Michelle Obama After writing todayโ€™s #StorySaturday post about how one act of obedience turned into a life-changing connection, I knew exactly which book needed to be this weekโ€™s recommendation. The Light We Carry by Michelle Obama is a gentle but powerful reminder that sometimes, what we think is just an ordinary momentโ€”aโ€ฆ

Then come the whispers of self-doubt, and the moments when you stop believing in yourself, in your abilities, in what you bring to the table. And as if thatโ€™s not enough,โ€ฆ

When I look back at how this whole blogging journey beganโ€”with nothing but a story about a traffic jam and the courage to hit โ€œpublishโ€โ€”I realize that was me, unknowingly, putting my dream toโ€ฆ

Thatโ€™s exactly why this weekโ€™s recommendation makes so much sense. ๐‘บ๐’๐’Ž๐’†๐’•๐’Š๐’Ž๐’†๐’” ๐’€๐’๐’– ๐‘พ๐’Š๐’, ๐‘บ๐’๐’Ž๐’†๐’•๐’Š๐’Ž๐’†๐’” ๐’€๐’๐’– ๐‘ณ๐’†๐’‚๐’“๐’ by John C.

๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 17 โ€“ Start with Why by Simon Sinek Soโ€ฆ remember the #StorySaturday series I launched today? As I shared the story of how I got my first job, it made me pause and reflect, not just on what happened, but on why it mattered so much. Looking back I admit I didnโ€™t know much then, but I knew I had one why; to find money to take myself to college. That was myโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 16 โ€“ The Power of One More by Ed Mylett Last Saturday, Easter took over and I forgot to post a bookโ€”my apologies!But here we are, back at it again, and todayโ€™s recommendation couldnโ€™t be more fitting. This week, Iโ€™m recommending The Power of One More by Ed Mylett. Because sometimes, success, healing, breakthroughโ€”itโ€™s all just one more away.โžก๏ธ One moreโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š#SaturdayShelfie: Book No. 15 โ€“ Goals! by Brian Tracy Meeting my goal and finally seeing a 13-year dream come true couldโ€™ve easily made me relax, settle, stagnateโ€”and probably even feel a little lost. But thanks to something I learned a while back, I knew better. So I checked this one offโ€ฆ and now Iโ€™ve moved on to the next. That's how much having other goals lined up isโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 14 โ€“ Beyond Talent by John C. Maxwell I had such a crazy dayโ€”playing in the mud and rain (true story!)โ€”that I completely forgot today was #ShelfieDay. But here we are, better late than never! This weekโ€™s book recommendation is once again inspired by the recent breakthrough I had with @nurturenest.hub. If thereโ€™s one powerful lesson Iโ€™ve learned throughโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š#SaturdayShelfie: Book 13 โ€“ Shoe Dog by Phil Knight Yesterday, I shared a dream that has taken 13 to happen. It came with years of silence, setbacks, and doubtโ€”but I kept the dream alive, kept preparing, and when the opportunity finally came, it all made sense. Thatโ€™s why todayโ€™s book is so personal. Iโ€™ve read Shoe Dog many times before, but after witnessing my own long-โ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š#SaturdayShelfie: Book 12 โ€“ The Top Five Regrets of the Dying by Bronnie Ware In the past few weeks, Iโ€™ve caught myself reflecting on some of the decisions Iโ€™ve made throughout my adult lifeโ€”choices I wish I could undo, paths I wish I had taken, words I wish I had spokenโ€ฆ or kept to myself. And in those quiet moments, I found myself wishing for something we never truly getโ€”โ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 11 โ€“ Master Your Emotions by Thibaut Meurisse Today, something happened that made me realize just how important this book is. Many people have lost their destinies simply because they never learned how to master their emotions. Theyโ€™ve lost opportunities, relationships, and even their sense of selfโ€”all because they lacked self-control and, mostโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie (on a Sunday!): Book 10 โ€“ The Emotionally Exhausted Woman by Nancy Colier First, let me start with an apologyโ€”I know I was supposed to post this yesterday, but I wasnโ€™t feeling well. For the past few weeks, Iโ€™ve been unwell, and after a change of meds on Friday, letโ€™s just say Iโ€™ve been sleeping like a well-fed cat in the sun. That said, I couldnโ€™t haveโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ“š #SaturdayShelfie: Book 9 โ€“ Donโ€™t Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table by Louie Giglio If you know me well, then you know I love books for days. So when I received this one as a gift a few days ago, I was elated! Then I flipped to the back cover, read the description, and boy, isnโ€™t it timely! We all have that one uninvited guestโ€”negative thoughts, self-doubt, fear,โ€ฆ
