The Library
Curated, not algorithmic.
Books, women, and practices worth your attention. Updated when something earns its place. Never to fill a content calendar.
Reading list
Books I keep returning to.
Not a syllabus. Not a productivity stack. The handful of books I find myself recommending in DMs at 11pm.
- 01
Women Who Run With the Wolves
Clarissa Pinkola Estés
The mythic spine of this whole project. Read slowly, in seasons.
- 02
Bittersweet
Susan Cain
On the quiet power of longing. A permission slip for the moody months.
- 03
Hood Feminism
Mikki Kendall
Recalibrates whose 'becoming' has been centred, and whose hasn't.
- 04
How to Do Nothing
Jenny Odell
An argument for attention as the most radical resource you have.
Women worth knowing
Thinkers I'd put in your hand.
Writers, researchers, and quiet revolutionaries shaping how I think.
- 01
adrienne maree brown
Author of Pleasure Activism, Emergent Strategy
On change as something we grow, not engineer.
- 02
Dr. Vivek Murthy & the Loneliness Lab
Public health research
The data behind why so many of us feel quietly unmoored.
- 03
Tricia Hersey
The Nap Ministry
Rest as resistance. Required reading for the high-functioning.
- 04
Esther Perel
Therapist & writer
On the long, real work of intimacy, with others and with self.
Practices & tools
Things that earn their place.
Small, useful, real. Nothing that asks more of you than it gives back.
- 01
Morning pages, but honestly
Journaling, 15 min
Three pages, one cup of something warm, no audience. Cumulative magic.
- 02
A walk before the phone
Daily practice
Twenty minutes outside before any screen. Shifts the entire day.
- 03
The annual personal review
Once a year, a long Sunday
Not goals. A long, slow look at what's wanting to grow next.
- 04
One real friendship, fed
Weekly voice notes
Not networking. A woman you talk to as if she's already known you for years.
Have something that should be here? I'd love to know what's been feeding you.
