If I had to make the difficult choice of selecting just 20 books to access for the remainder of my life, I could do a lot worse than the 20 written so far by today’s special guest.
Seth Godin is special to me for a lot of reasons; not the least of which is he is almost singlehandedly responsible for helping rekindle my love of reading.
In fact, you could go so far as to say that, without Seth Godin, there’s a real good chance the last seven-plus years of my life would have been spent doing something else.
But thanks to his book Purple Cow, I’m here instead. And the beauty of that is, so are you.
Seth’s latest book, released last week, is called The Practice: Shipping Creative Work, and I am thrilled to dive into it in this episode with Seth and with you.

In today’s episode, I ask Seth about:
- Trusting yourself enough to do what you were made to do
- Why he believes that seeking reassurance is futile
- Why he feels authenticity is a trap
- And lots more!
