Performance Reading
FEBRUARY
Each month, I curate two books that support high-level professional development, leadership effectiveness, and psychological performance. These selections are chosen for their practical application, evidence-based insights, and relevance to executives, high achievers, and professionals seeking sustained excellence. This reading list is designed to sharpen thinking, expand perspective, and support continued growth both personally and professionally.
Resilience in Motion
Bounce reveals the hidden mechanics behind mastery, failure, and recovery. Matthew Syed draws on science, sports, and real-world stories to show that success is not a matter of innate talent, but of practice, mindset, and the ability to learn from setbacks. This compelling guide for high performers, executives, and creative professionals illuminates how resilience, reflection, and disciplined effort create lasting excellence.
Restorative Wisdom
We’ll Prescribe You a Cat offers a quiet reminder of what modern performance culture often forgets: regulation, connection, and care are not luxuries—they are medicine. Through gentle, human stories, the book illustrates how small, attuned relationships can restore nervous system balance, soften burnout, and reopen access to joy, creativity, and focus. A subtle yet powerful reflection on healing that doesn’t push, optimize, or fix—only supports.
