"A fresh, practical and motivating guide to lobster-like lifelong learning."
When I first read The Squiggly Career, it really spoke to me, and so I was excited to hear about the latest book from Helen Tupper and Sarah Ellis - Learn Like a Lobster. And I’m so glad I got my grubby little hands on it.
The idea is simple: lobsters never stop growing. They grow through hard moments, and those moments fuel their development. The same can be true for us as learners.
Most of us know learning matters, in the same way we know reading matters. The real challenge is finding the time. People often ask how I manage to read so many books. The answer is simple: I plan for it, I commit to it, and I make time for it. Because I love it.
Today our careers are chock-a-block, full of change, of choice, of potential and endless possibilities. The best learners stay curious and open, they find ways to keep growing. This memorable and refreshing take on this, is a game-changer. Rather than offering abstract theory, it encourages a shift in mindset: encouraging you to lean into discomfort, recognise it as temporary, and trust the process of renewal.
The writing is accessible and engaging, making it easy to digest while still leaving a lasting impression. It’s particularly powerful for anyone navigating transition - whether in career, identity, or personal life - because it normalises the unease that often accompanies change. It reminds you that there is no learning without questions.
Opens your mind to question menus. And you’ll never work without a to-think list again.
