Books are powerful tools for learning, connection, evolution, and reconsideration.
From storytelling through fiction to learning about the real lives of others in nonfiction works, books help us reshape our thinking, communicate with the people in our lives, and sometimes just get lost in a really good story.
Erica Courdae joins India to discuss some of the books that have strongly impacted them and how they think about everything from storytelling to gentrification to minimalism.
In this discussion:
Storytellers who took us on unexpected journeys
A book that helped us rethink what we know about gentrification
Reconsidering minimalism and intentionality
