Caring for other people who are experiencing trauma can cause a trauma exposure response in us. In Trauma Stewardship, Laura van Dernoot Lipsky and Connie Burk dive into the warning signs for trauma exposure and how to respond to those signs in a way that sustains and fuels us.

This is a great read for anyone who works or spends time with people experiencing trauma.

I hope this podcast motivates you to read the book so that you can be more self-compassionate and find a sustainable path while caring for others.

Jo Linden and I discuss the mentor mindset, what it is, and how to do it well, based on the book 10 to 25 by David Yeager.

It turns out that the problem with young people today is that older people didn't do their homework and learn the best way to support them based on young people's developmental priorities. David Yeager does the homework for us in his research that goes into this directly applicable book.

If you know or work with any young people (or people who work with young people), you'll find amazing insights in 10 to 25.

This engaging book by Georgia Cloepfil gives an insider look into professional women's sports at the not-quite-ultra-elite level. In conversation with Skippy Steve, we explore the challenges and rewards of Georga's experience in women's sports and how this story has been missing from the lore of semi-pro athletics in the public eye.

Remember the it-only-takes-10,000-hours-to-be-an-expert craze? This book is by the guy (Anders Ericsson)who did the research on how to become an expert that was misinterpreted and started all the hullabaloo.

The book clarifies what you actually need to do to become an expert and how to do it. (It may take less than 10,000 hours!)
