Hating reading isn’t the end of the story—it’s just the beginning.

In this episode, I dive into why so many people (maybe even you or your friends) grew up disliking books and how to rediscover the joy of reading. We’ll talk about tracing back where that dislike started, experimenting with every kind of book until you stumble on something you genuinely love, and why the best place to start might be with older reads rather than anything written in the last decade.

Whether you’re a self-proclaimed book hater or just someone who hasn’t found the one yet, this episode is your permission slip to reset your reading life.

Let's begin.
