This book was so impactful for me I slept for sixteen hours after completing it. While reading it, I had so many shifts in how I connect the feelings in my body to the thoughts in my head. Reading it felt like putting on glasses, and my world looks more in focus now.

Burnout: The Secret to Unbreaking the Stress Cycle by Amelia and Emily Nagoski
$17I love the writing style, stories, and how clearly I see myself in the pages. It’s easy to start implementing strategies out of the first chapter, and I now ask Joe for a hug when I’m feeling overwhelmed as a legit strategy for calming my body.
And guess what? It works. I highly recommended this for anyone who feels on edge 24/7. We don’t have to be in fight or flight constantly!

I bought this book which shares not only her artwork but also a deeper dive into her life and work. It’s something I like to read or look at when I’m taking a break from work, to connect with beauty and help me get unstuck.

The New Traditional by Darryl Carter
$30What I like about Darryl’s design approach is that it places comfort front and center in each room and really encourages you to be yourself in the way you bring a room together. I have found myself referring back to this book often as a “North Star”—the advice within is classic yet unpretentious in ways that are personal and not at all flashy.

Our Women on the Ground by Zahra Hankir
$17This book includes essays from Arab journalists that had me stopping often to think about the underrepresentation of the work these incredibly brave women are doing. It’ll shift your mindset to think about how one-sided stories can be and how important it is to hear the perspectives of people in different circumstances.
