I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings

by Maya Angelou

"She wrote I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings and is just one of my major heroes in life. Anyway, she had this conversation years ago with Bill Moyers and what I think is so fascinating, she said, you're only free when you realize you belong nowhere, everywhere, no place at all."

Radical Candor

Buy on Amazon
"I know our friend Adam Grant who’s also a professor at Wharton has written about how he hates the idea; our dear friend Kim Scott who wrote Radical Candor also hates the idea!
