Today’s episode was inspired by the December issue of my Secret Coach newsletter that I’m currently writing. Every December, I like to give a year-end review where I share what happened the previous 12 months in my business. I look at the good, the bad, the ugly, what I’m looking to change in the new year, the trends I’m seeing in the coaching industry, and more. In that issue, I also include a list of the top 10 books that I read in the year, and for the first time, I wanted to give a sneak peek on the podcast of three of these top books. Most coaches I know, and myself included, are big readers, so I hope you enjoy these recommendations! To get the December 2022 issue of Secret Coach Club and the full list of books all coaches should read (plus a whole lot more!) the deadline is this coming Sunday, December 4th, 2022, at midnight EST. The link is https://secretcoachclub.com/, and I’m looking forward to hearing what books have impacted you the most!
