Finding Your Why
Simon Sinek
A powerful guide to uncovering what drives you, helping align your work and life with deeper purpose.
-jack / ceo & founder
I Who Have Never Known Men
Jacqueline Harpman
I walked away from this book filled with questions, while it’s both unsettling and liberating to know that I’ll never have the answers, what stayed with me the most was its open-ended exploration of humanity and identity, something each reader will interpret in their own way. Truly a one of a kind book.
-Cat / Head of CX

How to win friends and influence people
Dale Carnegie
-fantasma & kayvon
Perfume
Patrick Süskind
It awakened my love for books when I was just 12, drawing me into a world both eerie and beautiful, and showing how words could evoke wonder, emotion, and unforgettable imagination.
-Jessy / Finance Manager
A Little Life
Hanya Yanagihara
Earth shattering coming of age novel that depicts the NYC life ( which I’m obsessed with) of four friends. The trauma, friendship, love and overcoming of abuse that is experienced in the book has stayed with me for years. It left me staring at a wall for hours, and I quite literally destroyed the book with my tears. A novel you only read once. Unforgettable
-Bia / Sr. copywriter
The Obstacle is the Way
Ryan Holiday
A timeless guide to turning life’s challenges into opportunities through the lens of Stoic philosophy.
-Travis / Sr. Growth Manager
Barbarian Days
William Finnegan
It captures the raw beauty of surf culture through the lens of personal growth and relentless pursuit. It’s a candid memoir that blends travel, adventure, and introspection in a way that mirrors my love for chasing experience and the stories that come with them. The book feels like a passport to a life lived on the edge of the ocean and the edge of the map.
-Adam / Director, Events & . Partnerships
Shoe Dog
Phil Knight
An honest, behind-the-scenes look at the grit, risks, and passion that built Nike, told by its founder, Phil Knight.
-fantasma / man of mystery
oh, the places you will go by
Dr. Seuss
A whimsical yet wise reminder that life’s journey is full of ups, downs, and endless possibilities.
-kayvon / el presidente
East of Eden
John Steinbeck
I love the various, complex characters and their questions about life. I appreciate the central theme around how much of our future is predetermined vs. how much control do we have to change it. My takeaway was that we have as much control as we want to take. Life is happening whether we choose to actively or passively participate.
-Kaylin / Sr. Staff Accountant
The Dichotomy of Leadership
Jocko Willink
A deep dive into the balance leaders must strike between extremes to build stronger teams and make better decisions.
-tuk tuk
Shōgun
James Clavell
I love history, and I really love historical fiction. Without spoilers, Shōgun is a story about survival, cultural clash, philosophy, love, and loyalty—written by a man who was a POW in a Japanese prison camp in WWII. The writing is confident and the dialogue cuts like a knife. It’s a narrative mastery of the “show, don’t tell” philosophy, and Blackthorne captures the essence of a sailor better than any other depiction I’ve ever seen.
-Drew / Sr. copywriter
Atomic Habit
James Clear
Practical strategies for building better habits and breaking bad ones, one small change at a time.
-jack / he reads a lot
Women who run with wolves
Clarissa Pinkola Estés
It’s like this magical guidebook for reconnecting with your intuition and inner wild woman energy. I read it when I turned 30, and it honestly cracked something open in me. It was such a pivotal time in my life, and this book felt like a permission slip to trust myself deeper and remember who I’ve always been.
-Ivy / Head of Social
