Hi, I'm Annette... a former English professor turned life design strategist.

For years, I've reached for books when I feel stuck. Not necessarily the "burn it all down" kind of stuck, but the subtler kind where you're successful on paper and tired underneath, or when you're wondering if there is more, but not even sure what more means.

I've read a lot of personal development books. Most of them were forgettable, but some found me at just the right time and changed everything: how I see myself, what I believe is possible, and how I show up each day.

This is that list.

If you're questioning, rebuilding, reimagining, resetting, or ready to see the world differently, this is for you.

(And if you don't like to read, check out the audiobook versions!)

Drop your email below, and I'll send the link straight to your inbox. And the list is continually updated, so bookmark it to come back later!
