In 2025, everything is set to accelerate. We might feel more deeply and sense that the world is spinning out of control.

Now, more than ever, it’s essential to know thyself—to stay grounded in your inner wisdom, which may have lain dormant for a long time. From this wisdom, you will manifest whatever serves your highest good, which, in turn, serves the highest good of all.

It’s time to Awaken.

"Don't Believe Everything You Think” by Joseph Nguyen

  • After 10 days and 90 hours of meditation at a Vipassana silent meditation retreat, I observed that while I can’t control the thoughts entering my consciousness, I do have a choice in how much energy (thinking) I give them. The thoughts entering our minds are not facts, and most aren’t even our own. Thinking is a biological response rooted in survival and fear, and it prevents us from following our true calling. While thinking is useful for planning, analyzing information, and executing tasks, for decision-making, it’s better to rely on our intuition, soul, higher self, or whatever term resonates with you.

  • A clear distinction between thoughts and thinking.

  • A sense of empowerment and clarity.

  • TL;DR: A simple yet powerful book that invites me to look inward and understand what self-awareness truly means. Each word in the poem seems to radiate a vibration, beginning with the author's pain and leading to clarity and connection. It feels magical. Reading the book itself feels like a healing session. The book is a sanctuary, providing space for reflection and growth.

    The empty space in the book is as powerful as the words. The silence brings clarity, and the void creates connection.

  • When we give space, we create a sanctuary for our audience.

  • Healing, clarity, love

"Clarity & Connection" by yung pueblo

  • Harari uses historical evidence to highlight the unintended dark sides of technological advancements. Throughout history, control over information has equaled power. From ancient oral traditions to modern digital platforms, those who manage the flow of information have had a huge impact on societies. Human communities are built on shared myths and narratives, spread through information networks, and in the age of AI, understanding and critically evaluating these narratives is more important than ever.

  • A heightened awareness about the balance between AI and human identity.

  • A sense of urgency, deep reflection on humanity.

"Nexus" by Yuval Noah Harari

  • When Nadella talks about rediscovering Microsoft’s soul, I knew this book was for me. I love his courage to be authentic and root his mindful leadership philosophy in his mother’s wisdom—a Sanskrit scholar and teacher. He drew inspiration from the Seahawks' playbook, leveraging mindfulness to optimize leadership team performance and trust. He offers a holistic and empathetic view on shaping technological advancements, policies, ethics, and morality for the betterment of humanity. This is a must-read for leaders who aim to lead in the new paradigm—a world of love and light.

  • New paradigm company, Empathy-led Innovation, Mindful Leadership.

  • Hope, Refresh, I want to work for Microsoft.

"Hit Refresh" by Satya Nadella

  • Our souls are the core of who we are, connected to our most authentic emotions, thoughts, and experiences. The soul requires care, which I’ve found through exploring passions, connecting with nature, and accepting grief as essential to healing. We accept the ordinary, failure, and sadness as parts of life—but this acceptance doesn’t come from losing hope. It stems from resilience and faith that we are here on Earth, as humans, to learn fundamental soul lessons. True freedom lies in deeply understanding our life purpose and nurturing our soul identity.

  • Nurturing our soul to embrace our full authentic self, Accepting grief as essential to healing.

  • Relieved, free, connected, empowered.

"Care of the Soul" by Thomas Moore

  • The first edition of this book, published in 2007, was likely ahead of its time. I read the 2nd edition in 2024 and found it to be more relevant. As we begin to REdiscover how our energetic presence impacts everything we do and our way of being, understanding our energetic levels—rooted in ego, frequency, and awareness—becomes crucial. Mastering these aspects, both individually and within leadership and organisations, is the secret sauce for high-performing organisations grounded in passion, empathy, and innovation.

  • Catabolic vs. anabolic leadership, intuitive leadership, fear does not exist in the present moment, and choice is freedom.

  • Refreshed, fearless, aligned, with a deep appreciation for operating beyond the physical plane.
