- In yesterday's live Paula Jenkins and I talked about books every podcaster should read, but really they are books for anyone who is a content creator, professional creative, professional creator, or content strategists (only one of the books was specifically about podcasting.)

To hear our thoughts on each book in more detail watch the conversation replay: ? Big Magic (paula) ? The War of Art (marion) ? Essentialism (paula) ? Known (marion) ? Braving the Wilderness (paula) ? The Princess Diaries (you'll need to hear why..it makes sense - paula) ? Building a Story Brand (marion) ? Make Noise (marion) ? Jump Start Your Joy (paula) ? Endurance ( a stretch, but it's all about the power of optimism for me - marion) "How to Be a Professional Host & Craft the Show of Your Dreams" onĀ Unconventional Leaders podcast7/8/2021
