Business:Investing
I'm delighted to bring you today's guest, the insightful Adam Ashton. If you have a thirst for knowledge, you're in for a treat! Adam is one half of the amazing team behind “What You Will Learn,” Australia’s top book podcast. Alongside Adam Jones, they've captivated millions with over 400 episodes discussing the books they’ve read. They’ve also penned two best-sellers, with the second titled "Attitude" (you’ll find links in the notes).
My introduction to Adam's podcast was during a peaceful drive in Panama. The engaging talks about books were a perfect match for my love of reading, and soon I was hooked! I listened to episode after episode and found myself adding books to my reading list.
Eager to chat about books, I reached out, and to my joy, Adam Ashton agreed to join us today!
With a diverse background in physiotherapy, economics, finance, and digital marketing, Adam turned to books to seek answers to life’s questions. His favorite books have not only broadened his knowledge but also helped him understand himself and the world.
Today, Adam shares his love for reading and how it led him to create “What You Will Learn.” He believes books are often overlooked treasures that hold simple yet life-changing wisdom.
Looking for happiness? Adam shares insights from books that reveal keys to happiness through connections, meaningful work, and understanding values.
Adam also talks about passion, hard work, and staying committed - themes that are common in many books and crucial for success. He delves into different mindsets and explains how they can shape our approach to work and life.
Public speaking fans, take note! Adam discusses how speaking skills can be highly valuable and even touches upon the fascinating concept of the “Halo Effect.”
We also explore the powerful impact of writing and how it can be a tool for personal growth.
Adam’s advice for all of us is to take action, embrace new opportunities, and stay open to learning.
Speaking with Adam was truly inspiring. This episode is packed with gems of wisdom, so sit back, relax, and please join me in welcoming the wonderful Adam Ashton.
Enjoy the episode!
