During his appearance on Lenny's Podcast, he recommended several business and personal development books that he frequently shared with founders and teams.

He also recommended Ezra Roizen's "Magic Box Paradigm" as a guide for building relationships with potential acquirers, Geoff Smart and Randy Street's "Who" as the methodological foundation for his firm's hiring practices, and Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares's "Traction" as a useful resource detailing the available channels for demand generation. On a personal level, Lowenhar recommended Michael A.

The Untethered Soul
Recommended“The second one, it goes more personal. It's a book called Untethered Soul by Michael Singer. It's this, was at least for me, the first introduction to this idea that I am not my brain. And that my brain can be a tool that serves me well and at times doesn't.”
