On the Reading Life
from The Stephen Mansfield Podcast
A meaningful reading life quiets the soul, tames the heart, inflames the imagination, and helps to make us authentic. In fact, the pages of history show us that most of the great leaders of the past were ravenous readers. Perhaps we really must “read to lead.” Stephen discusses all of these themes in this podcast and urges us to live exceptional lives, fueled in part by the power of the written word.
