📻 From Classic Radio to Classic Reads: Life in Switzerland, Learning, and a Love of Stories

Since relocating to Switzerland, I’ve been tuning into FM radio more than ever. One station in particular has become a favourite—SW4, broadcasting from Baden-Württemberg. Their playlist is a goldmine of English and American classics from the 60s through to the 90s, peppered with the occasional gem in German or French. There’s something about hearing The Beatles or Fleetwood Mac echoing through our new home that grounds me, makes me feel connected.Only snag? Every time I plug in my laptop—interference. A reminder, perhaps, that some of life’s best moments aren’t meant to be multitasked.

This reflective pace suits me. I’ve always been the book lover in my family—the one drawn to great stories and real lives lived with grit and grace. From memoirs of racing car drivers to the philosophies of national leaders, I’ve learned so much from reading the journeys of others. Whether it's a rugby coach breaking down team psychology or a business pioneer explaining how they built an empire, these stories shape how I think, lead, and live.

I’ve now curated my 50 favourite reads from the last 15 years—books that have shaped my thinking around business, self-development, and resilience. You’ll find this compilation—"My 50 Books"—inside the Premium Vault, alongside my nutrition guide 13 Foods to Build Muscle and a growing library of helpful resources: downloadable guides, shop display templates, inspirational photos, and much more.
