  • Books Applied Podcast - Untamed by Glennon Doyle - Featuring Special Guest Daava Mills
    Jun 1 2025

    There are many reasons why I was late to pick-up Untamed by Glennon Doyle (I mention them specifically in the episode). I'm glad I did (eventually) so I could have this animated conversation with the always sharp Daava Mills.


    Maybe you can't relate to this book, and that's ok. It still might surprise you.

  • Books Applied Podcast - Peak by Anders Ericsson and Robert Pool
    Mar 1 2025

    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!)

  • Books Applied Podcast - 4000 Weeks by Oliver Burkeman - Featuring Special Guest Erika Cooley
    Jan 1 2025

    This book could have devolved into a bucket-list-frenzy for how to maximize the 4000 weeks we each have to live. Instead it looks at how to live well in the time we do have. Erika Cooley and I talk about how this book has influenced (or not) our lives and decisions.
