10/04/26 - READ : Beyond Belief by Nir EyalBestselling author Nir Eyal shares how our beliefs shape our lives. Our beliefs can either hold us back or propel us toward our dreams. Sometimes we may not even be aware of the beliefs that are running us.

Michelle and Nir discuss limiting money beliefs, the power of prayer and the self-fulfilling power of labels.
Go beyond the page of Nir Eyal's new book " Beyond Belief" in this edition of READ with Michelle. Watch the full interview on YouTube.
