Welcome to the personal library of Zafire Fierro.
Few things will change your life more profoundly than the right book, at the right time. Setting some time aside each day to dedicate to your self-improvement goals and quiet reflection can be a game-changer in the fast-paced, modern world in which we can learn to thrive.
Clicking on the products below will take you to Amazon where you can purchase the books and products that I have found valuable in my own life. We do get a small commission from any purchases you make, but we have created this as an easy way for our clients to find books and other things we often discuss in our session or workshops.
Like you, I don’t have as much time to sit and read as I would like. That’s why I love audio books as a way to learn and stimulate my mind while doing mundane chores around the house, driving etc. I became a member of Audible a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back since.
