every book I read & how they changed my life (mostly self help & business)

From feeling lost and alone to finding inner peace and purpose, today I'm sharing my timeline of (almost) every single book I read. Books that helped me feel more understood, find my purpose, build better habits, and find balance and stillness within. Mostly self-help and business books sprinkled with a fiction or two. As I was outlining this video, I realized I could've easily made an updated '6 books that changed my life' but because I'm extremeo and the INFJ in me was adamant about wanting to go all out with a FULL ON TIMELINE, here we are. 😅 🙃 Don't be a stranger ╰ IG: http://instagram.com/rowenatsai ╰ Subscribe to my channel: http://bit.ly/subrowena ╰ rowenatsai@gmail.com OUR NEW JEWELRY LINE w/ Ana Luisa ✿ Bracelet: http://analuisa.com/rowena-bracelet ✿ Necklace: http://analuisa.com/felicia-necklace ✿ Set of both: http://analuisa.com/beauty-within-set - - - T I M E S T A M P - - - [1:23] What got someone who didn't like reading into reading?
