I’ve compiled a list of the books we read and the one podcast we listened to that helped guide us to this decision to do something radically different with our life. To the best of my remembrance, these are in the order we read/listened to them. All of these, though written across more than a century, embrace the central themes of paying attention to your soul and discerning your purpose.
