The Grateful Podcast with Jack Wagoner
Episode 63
Nicholas Hutchison (@nicklovesbooks) has read over 500 personal development books—and built an entire business teaching people how to implement what they read. In this conversation, we dive into how reading changed his life, why most people never apply what they learn, and how to use books as tools to build the life you want.
Basically, we just nerd out about books. It is awesome.
🎯 What you’ll learn:
• The 5-step system to retain and apply what you read
• Why audiobooks don’t work unless you do this one thing
• The biggest lessons from James Clear, Ed Mylett & more
• How to build confidence and clarity from books
• The secret to turning knowledge into power
