1244: 6 Books You're Going to Want to Buy, Read, and Take Seriously in 2026

"I'm a fan of quality versus quantity and reading one book all year, but mastering everything that you have learned in that book."

In this episode, Heather shares her top six books for growing as a parent, business owner, and person in 2026. But these aren't just any old books to add to your stack; they're the books she keeps on hand to read and reread because they're a wealth of knowledge and insight that can change your life, if you integrate their wisdom. The big takeaway from this episode that will transform your life if you follow it? That you don't need to read more. You need to commit to taking action around what you learn until you've mastered it.

What to listen for:

✨ Why Heather recommends reading only 10 books a year, no more

✨ The importance of quality vs. quantity when it comes to books

✨ Focus on integration over endless consumption

"So many people are addicted to information and personal development. They don't realize that part of the challenge of why they're not attracting or receiving what they want and desire in their lives is because they are blocking themselves from receiving."

✨ The art of learning how to receive and why most women can't

✨ Getting out of your head and into your heart, because we need both

✨ Why you should be changing your identity at least once a year

"If you're actually doing the work, even if it's just tiny, tiny, tiny habits, you're going to become a different person. Your identity is going to change. And when your identity changes, you need to change your habits."

✨ Essential conversations that parents need to have

✨ Addressing brain imbalances to help your children thrive

✨ Building rich relationships and embodying generosity as a value
