Book of the Month: July 2020

For July, my reading recommendation is Human(Kind) by Ashlee Eiland. It is a beautiful collection of essays about extending kindness that is woven together by powerful themes such as curiosity, humility, belonging, perspective, risk, loss and more.
Through her essays, we join Eiland on a journey as she develops her own unique worth and voice "as a black woman living on two sides of the fence: as token black girl in majority - white spaces and as the "whitewashed" black girl in the majority-black spaces." She illustrates the power of extending kindness to others, regardless of race, social status, political views, or religious beliefs and how this not only gives us hope and but also rekindles our common humanity.

BOok of the MOnth: June

"The passion for stretching yourself and sticking to it, even (or especially) when it's not going well, is the hallmark of the growth mindset. This is the mindset that allows people to thrive during some of the most challenging times in their lives."

In times of uncertainty, our mindsets are challenged. Although I have read a lot of books that touch on mindset, this to me is an essential in understanding the of one's mindset.

In 2006, Carol Dweck, a world-renowned psychologist released the book 'Mindset.' It is a brilliant book that shows that our success is drastically influenced by how we think about our abilities and our talents. She introduces the idea of the fixed mindset and the growth mindset. The fixed mindset refers to those that believe that their abilities are fixed, and the growth mindset refers to those that believe their abilities and talents can be developed.
Happy Reading!
