📚 The Power Within a Book | Candid Talks 014 | Leaders Are Readers #selfmastery #leadersarereaders

🎯 Join me in this enlightening episode of Candid Talks with Shawn as I explore the timeless principle that "leaders are readers" often quoted by @KevinTrudeauShow , and discover why this matters for everyone – because we are all leaders of our own lives.

In this episode, I'll discuss:
• Why reading is the secret weapon of successful leaders
• How we're all leaders in our own right (even if you don't see it yet)
• The transformative power of Illuminating Language (with a special invitation to explore my curated playlist)
• 5 game-changing book recommendations that could reshape your perspective
