This is a YouTube video titled "Books That Changed My Life: Josh Hawkins & I AM LEADER PT. 4" created in July 2025. The excerpt contains a reflective monologue or talk by a single speaker discussing vulnerability, personal growth, and the impact of sharing honest experiences related to a book. The content appears introspective and motivational rather than conversational.
The shadow list. So my name isn't on the book, but I put my name on this. Actually, I didn't want to put this in there. Really felt very vulnerable. Was that an indicator that it needs to stay? What I thought was if I want people to be vulnerable and be honest, then I got to give something to get something. So it isn't about me. And so whatever embarrassment or shame or, you know. Yeah, I feel it isn't about that. It's about I figured this out through a lot of pain, not because I'm smarter than you. I don't know if this is normal, but. And just. I really appreciate that you owned it the way you did and opened that vulnerable part of you up. I think it gave the book a lot of credit. Like, it's so profound, what I'm going through right now, and then it's. I'm going out in the real world and the data is matching what I'm saying here.
