Recorded live at Capital Crime Book Festival, Philippa talks to Gavin Bell — also known as Mason Cross, also known as Alex Knight — about his gripping new thriller 138 Main Street. But first, three festive reads for anyone who, like Philippa, enjoys a Christmas book in the height of summer.3 Christmas Books for SummerThe Winter Guest – Sarah MossTwo strangers share Christmas Eve dinner in a remote Irish hotel as a snowstorm gathers outside — and each has a confession to make.

Before you head out on vacation, do one thing for me. Throw one of these in your bag.Summer's the one stretch all year where the pace actually lets up enough to read something that isn't a status update or a board deck. And the leaders who grow the fastest don't read more than everyone else. They read differently.Today I'm handing you the books that actually changed how I think, not just what I know, including three I reread every single summer, on purpose, not because I forgot them.> Links mentioned within

Summer is the perfect time for catching up on your reading. Today, Eric discusses seven books he read recently that have left a lasting impression on him. Stay tuned as he shares why these books stood out to him, what he learned from each one, and why he feels they are worth adding to your reading list. It's All About Relationships: Mastering the Art of Relational Leadership – Eddie Arriola Eric started reading this book because he knows Eddie Arriola and wanted to support him, but he found it truly fascinating. Drawing on Eddie's experience of starting a bank from scratch, building an amazing culture, and later selling the business, the book is filled with leadership lessons, anecdotes, and stories. Whether you're in business or not, Eric highly recommends this book. How Big Things Get Done – Bent Flyvbjerg and Dan Gardner The stories in this book are so captivating that Eric read it like a novel. The book focuses on teams, preparation, and project management. It brings lessons to life through stories, making complex ideas engaging and memorable. Suicidal Empathy – Gad Saad This book presents examples of events that have taken place in the UK, Canada, and the US, focusing on society, academia, and politics. Eric describes it as frightening and eye-opening. He notes that it is not recommended for people who are easily offended or closely aligned with woke ideology, but believes it is a book everyone should read. Unhinged Habits: A Counterintuitive Guide for Humans to Have More by Doing Less – Jonathan Goodman The book combines philosophy, life lessons, and practical ideas that can be applied in both life and business. Drawing on examples from Jonathan Goodman's own life, it encourages readers to stop waiting for "one day" and start living the life they want. Eric describes it as an inspiring book that makes you think about the choices you are making in life. Crushing It! – Gary Vaynerchuk This book shares real examples of entrepreneurs who have implemented the ideas from Crush It to build their businesses and influence. Each story demonstrates how those ideas were successfully put into practice while offering practical takeaways that readers can apply themselves. Eric found each story truly inspiring. Out of Touch: The Elite 1% and the Battle for America's Soul – Scott Rasmussen This book explores how a small group of politically active elites hijacked America's institutions, shattered national trust, and turned citizens against one another, while examining what the rest of us can do about it. Drawing on extensive survey data, the book is packed with data and examples that truly make you think. The Happiness Advantage: The Seven Principles of Positive Psychology That Fuel Success and Performance at Work – Shawn Achor This book challenges the belief that success leads to happiness, arguing instead that happier people become more successful. Through practical examples, it explains how cultivating happiness first can fuel greater success and performance at work. Eric says it is not "woo woo" at all, but a highly practical book that he highly recommends.

There is so much information out there, and sometimes, you have to be willing to seek it. When it comes to my life and money, I'm always seeking out education or insight to help me level up. I don't believe in staying stagnant and there's always someone or something that can help me expand my mindset to continue growing. I've read thousands of books in my lifetime, and there are always some that completely change my world. In this episode, I'm sharing 10 book recommendations that have helped me level up personally and financially. These books will no doubt play a role in leveling up your life and money, just like they did for me.   Here's a glance at this episode: [01:50] The first book Raya recommends is Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Raya shares how she wished she read this book sooner, but timing was everything. [05:40] The principles shared in The Richest Man in Babylon provide a great financial starting point for anyone looking to understand money. [09:20] After Raya's father passed away, The Power of Now helped her see the beauty in the present, regardless of the grief she felt. [13:00] Embracing uncertainty with faith and grace isn't easy to do, especially if goals aren't achieved. The Joy of the In-Between helps. [16:10] Building strong habits starts with small, consistent actions. Atomic Habits brings to light the importance of slow and steady when growing.   Rate, Review, & Follow: Did you love this episode? Are you a fan of the City Girl Savings podcast?

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Discover the top books for personal trainers to read like Grit, How to win friends and influence people, How to Become A Successful Personal TRainer and many more.Reading might be the most underrated skill for personal trainers looking to elevate their careers above the 90% who quit within their first year. While most fitness professionals obsess over certification acronyms, the truly successful ones are quietly building their intellectual foundation through consistent, deliberate reading habits.The contrast is striking. Picture a potential client walking into a gym to meet two trainers: one scrolling social media, the other absorbed in a professional development book. Before a word is spoken, one has already established themselves as a dedicated professional. This single habit creates an immediate differentiation that clients intuitively recognize and respect.Starting a reading practice doesn't require massive time commitments. Begin with just 5-10 minutes of distraction-free reading daily, timing yourself to establish a baseline reading speed. Create the right environment by eliminating distractions – put your phone across the room, find a quiet space, and treat reading with the same discipline you bring to physical training. As with fitness, consistency produces remarkable results over time.The reading curriculum for elite trainers spans multiple disciplines. For mindset development, explore works like "Grit" by Angela Duckworth or "Can't Hurt Me" by David Goggins. Business acumen grows through texts like "Go For No" by Richard Fenton, which teaches the counterintuitive approach of pursuing rejection to calibrate value. Technical mastery comes through studying "Starting Strength," "Fat Loss Forever," and "The Science and Practice of Strength Training." For comprehensive development, aim to read 50+ books annually – a simple habit that places you among the intellectual elite in fitness.Transform your reading habit into Want to ask us a question?
