Winter is the quiet season where real growth happens. In this episode, I break down why self-help books actually work when you read them with intention, not just for motivation. Weโll talk about how to turn winter downtime into personal and business growth, why most people get nothing from the books they read, and how to apply what you learn so it actually sticks.
