Favorite Books of 2025
The books I read this year reflect themes I care deeply about: who we are as people, how we connect authentically, how we lead consciously, how systems of power shape our reality, and how we might build something better together. All of them challenged me, inspired me, and helped me grow. Here are my favorites from 2025.
An Intro to Speed Reading: Simple Steps to Increase Your Speed
One of my favorite things to do is learn and consume information. About a year ago I was given a book that had a small section in it about speed reading. In just one short exercise I could see that with minimal practice, one can improve their reading speed significantly. Since then I’ve read several books, taken a course, and researched speed reading quite a bit.

Read on for my favorite tips on how to re-learn how to read, where you might be able to take in more information, or perhaps just save some time in your day.
