What We’re Reading (& Recommending) This Quarter

Here’s a quick dose of inspiration before 2026(!!) begins; three resources worth your limited time. 

• What makes this talk so interesting and useful isn’t the answer, it’s the way Randall Monroe approaches asking questions and exploring proxy variables to narrow in on what we can actually know. And the response he gets is pretty great, too.

• Brene Brown and Adam Grant explore devaluing future time and the repercussions of viewing the future as a separate, easier reality in this Dare to Lead podcast episode. Honestly, all 6 episodes of the series are great and we highly recommend! #bookclubgoals.

• Dre delivers a thought-provoking and extremely relevant piece exploring trust, truth and what that might mean in the future. @designfiction never disappoints, and this is no exception. 

• Bonus: This article by Justin Oberman is both practical and an interesting signal into the potential future for social media, and content surfacing in general. It’s also quite useful if LinkedIn has felt off to you recently and you’re wondering what’s happening and why your feed is suddenly meh.
