Hey, All Things Excellence fam—welcome back to Part Two of The Books That Shaped Me. This episode is personal. These five books carried me through one of the most tender, transitional, defining and relaunching seasons of my life.
From the moment I landed in Arizona, fresh off a major move, a heartbreak I didn’t choose, and the unraveling of what I thought was safe ... I was searching for something that would help me heal and relaunch into my next best era. What I found were books that did more than educate and inform ... they transformed me.
In this episode, I’m walking you through:
- Why Atomic Habits was the first book I picked up in my new home—and how it reset my rhythm
- How It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way helped me grieve a friendship loss I couldn’t explain
- The way Overcoming Underearning uncovered my money patterns and helped me stop sabotaging
- What I See You gave me when the weight of being the breadwinner knocked the breath out of me
- Why 10x Is Easier Than 2x is helping me clean house and let go of what no longer fits in this next chapter
These aren’t just book recs. This is a behind-the-scenes look at how I’ve been becoming the clarity coach I am today—page by page, tear by tear, and breakthrough by breakthrough.
If you’re in a season of transition, growth, or just feel like something’s shifting… I have a feeling one of these books will speak directly to your soul.
And if you’re wondering what book might be right for you right now, I’d love to help. Book a 30-minute Intro Clarity Session with me at chelseydbc.com and together we can find the one that meets you where you are.

All Things Excellence
Welcome to All Things Excellence by Chelsey Debruin Colbert, the podcast dedicated to exploring what drives us to step into greatness, unlock our genius, and sometimes stumble along the way. For over 30 years, I’ve been on a journey of personal growth, digging deep into the “why” behind our actions. Through books, conferences, mentors, and coaching women in sales and leadership, I’ve learned that excellence isn’t just about strategies—it’s about the stories, traumas, and transformative moments that shape who we are.
Every Wednesday, join me for powerful conversations with inspiring guests who’ve chosen excellence in the face of challenges. Together, we’ll unpack the pivotal moments, mindset shifts, and lessons that turn obstacles into stepping stones.
This is a space for raw, real stories and actionable insights to help you grow, heal, and elevate. You’re closer to excellence than you think, and it might just be easier than you ever imagined.
Tune in to All Things Excellence—one story, one transformation, one step closer to greatness at a time.
