In this brief monologue, Jessica Hickman shares a pivotal insight that shaped her entrepreneurial journey: the importance of self‑education. She recounts being told that leaders are readers and that she should dedicate daily reading time, ideally 30 minutes, despite a demanding schedule of a full‑time job and building her company, Bullyology. Struggling to find time, she discovered audiobooks, which allowed her to consume content on the move—during commutes and workouts. She highlights how audiobooks expanded her knowledge across business, mindfulness, health, resilience, and well‑being, effectively turning otherwise idle moments into a personal learning library.

Chapters

Something someone told me that really changed my perspective on becoming an entrepreneur was that I needed to go back to education, and that was often in the form of self-education. And this person said to me that leaders are readers, so I needed to indulge in, enjoy in reading, and finding that time each day to do that, the recommended 30 minutes of reading, was difficult in a tight schedule. I was working a full-time job while building my business, Bullyology, and I really had to find that. And then I found audiobooks, and that's really changed my life because I can use audiobooks on the move. I can learn about topics around business, mindfulness, health, resilience, well-being, and I could have this whole library that I could use my time on my commute to work or in the gym and use it to grow my knowledge bank.
