G’day, curious friend.
May is upon us which means it’s time for a collection of books and podcasts that I consumed in April and want to recommend to you for some noodling over the next month.
If you’re seeking some great fiction:
Migrations by Charlotte McConaughey has got you covered and will make your eyes water. If this happens in a public place as it did to me, consider making a terrible joke like “is someone cutting onions in here?” Smooth.
If you’re curious about improving relationships of any kind:
Fierce Intimacy by Terry Real has got you covered. It’s got some blemishes for sure but among them are some amazing insights and questions for being more self-aware in how you show up in your relationships.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to own/run a successful restaurant(s):
Eat a Peach by David Chang will show you, warts and all, through some amazing storytelling that leaves you thinking “this can’t be real”.
If you’re as fascinated about the future of work as I am:
Don’t miss this interview with Brené Brown and Scott Soneshein.
That’s it for this month. If you’re feeling generous forward this email to a friend along with your completed Wordle just to remind them of your genius.
