What I’m Learning About - I
A rundown of what I’ve been enjoying lately and recommendations if you’re looking for inspiration.
Reading, Listening, Watching
I’m reading/listening to Sheila Johnson’s memoir Walk Through Fire on Spotify Audiobook (I love that most audiobooks are included in my premium subscription!!). I’m about halfway through and it’s been a great listen - she is a powerhouse! I’ve been reading it with my linesister and we are both enjoying it.
An article in Harvard Business Review, How to Keep Employees Productive: Support Caregivers, about a new trend in the workforce that leaders ought to think about.
A really interesting podcast listen for folks who manage people: New York Times The Daily The Hybrid Worker Malaise talks about the views of workers and companies as we/they balance workplace expectations.
Jay Shetty & Daniel Kaluuya - thoughtful, mindful conversation
I subscribed to Masterclass this month during their new year special and I’ve been really enjoying it. I’ve been a member before but there is so much new content on their platform now. I started with Martha Stewart’s ‘Think Like a Boss, Live Like a Legend’ class - it follows a day-in-the life but she also shares her entrepreneurial journey, which I found fascinating. Next up is Ava Duvernay’s ‘Reframe Your Thinking’ - I’ll be back to recommend that one soon!
Rewatching a sermon from Elevation Church’s Pastor Steven Furtick called “Ugly Trust.” It’s from about 8 months ago, but it came on automatically after another sermon that I was watching on Youtube (thank you algorithm) and it reminded me of how good this message was. It was really timely for me to rewatch.
