Let’s get a 2026 book list going 📚💜
I’m always on the hunt for a great read that challenges the way I think — about health, mindset, boundaries, motivation… and honestly, just being human.
Especially in this season of life, learning feels less about “fixing” ourselves and more about understanding, softening, and choosing what actually supports us.
Here are a few books on my list for 2026:
📖 𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙒𝙚 𝙎𝙡𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗲𝗿
Makes you rethink productivity, discipline, and willpower through the lens of biology. Fair warning: you’ll never look at sleep the same way again.
📖 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙈𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝙄𝙨 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝗯𝘆 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗮 𝗪𝗶𝗲𝘀𝘁
About self-sabotage, emotional patterns, and the uncomfortable truth that growth often means outgrowing parts of yourself.
📖 𝘼𝙩𝙡𝙖𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝗯𝘆 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻
A language upgrade for emotions. Helps you name what you’re feeling instead of stuffing it or spiraling.
(Yes, there’s a theme… growth without burnout 😌)
Now I want to hear from you.
What are you reading right now — or what’s a book you’ve read recently that you’d recommend to other women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond who are balancing self-care with a full life?

Here’s to a well-read, well-supported, Hormonal Harmony–friendly 2026 💜📚
