My 2025 Pick for a Book Gift
Each year, I gift a book to friends and loved ones that has made a really strong impression on me, and this year it was the 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom Why? Because Chapter 6 (The Big Question) graphs alone about how time is spent over the years, it has made me even more present and intentional with my time.
My 10 Favorite Reads of 2025
Non Fiction
- The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom
- Die with Zero by Bill Perkins
- Benjamin Franklin: An American Life by Walter Isaacson
- Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI by Ethan Mollick
