Show Notes

As I was meditating recently, I had a realization - something I already knew, but was shifted into crystal clear focus for me. It was a beautiful moment that further clarified my tremendous gratitude and love for books and reading.

One of the most amazing experiences to me with reading is that you get to enter new worlds through different human beings—you get to live a thousand lives through many different books if you read them with an open heart and mind.

In this episode I discuss my love for reading and books, the journey I’ve had with reading throughout my life and how books have allowed me to live infinite lives through the stories they tell.
