BookBright - Review, Rethink, Rewrite your story one book at the time
Welcome to BookBright, the podcast where personal growth gets real!
We read books that change us, reflect out loud on what hits (and what hurts), and invite you to not just learn, but live what you learn.
Each week, we dive deep into a new chapter from a powerful personal development book. It’s raw, honest, and sometimes uncomfortable, but always real.
You’ll also get the behind-the-scenes of how two curious Swedes decided to aim for conversations with the world’s biggest authors and what happens along the way. The rejections, the surprises, the courage it takes to ask... and the magic when someone says yes!
We’re two entrepreneurs with families, kids, and dogs, balancing growth in the middle of everyday chaos.
And this is what it sounds like when you build the world’s biggest podcast in applicable personal development, from your living room. 💁🏻♀️
Welcome to BookBright!
