About This Podcast

Why do I feel stuck? Why can’t I seem to follow through? What’s wrong with me? How can I finally break free and move forward? Is real change even possible?  

If you're not where you want to be or WHO you want to be, the Books to Better Your Life podcast is for you. Host Anne Brinkman, certified life coach and educator, brings you the key takeaways from classic personal growth, wellness, and psychology books – books that may expose you to new ideas or interpretations and inspire you to change your life.  

If there’s a self-development book you've been meaning to read, but have never gotten around to, let Coach Anne do the heavy lifting for you!  

Along with her book reviews, Coach Anne also interviews authors in the self-development and wellness field to get their take on the most important action-oriented and behavior change skills that you can use to tackle your challenges.


In her coaching sessions, Coach Anne helps people take action by focusing on habit development and mindset, and helps them uncover their own answers, building confidence and self-acceptance. The Books to Better Your Life podcast is an additional resource for her clients and anyone looking for key strategies for brain, thought, or lifestyle change.
