On each podcast I ask my guests to share their favourite read. I’ve included them here to make a reading list for you. Do note that some of the guests have their own books and recommended them.

Authorship is part of the way that we can share our vision with a broader audience, and establish our authority. If you're thinking of writing a book, why not check these out to see which ones give you inspiration.
