Last month, I did 21 days of gratitude with Mr. Dr. Hudson (it was SO moving and much needed). One of the things that I found myself sharing was being grateful for reading. When I get a good book, I don’t want to put it down. It’s with the turn of each page that something “comes to me,” and I get so excited to see what’s next. I really enjoy reflecting of what I’m learning while reading as well. I’m always enthused when I can jump on a call with a friend who has read the book–we indulge in processing and digesting what we took from it.

Recently, I had an “ah ha!” moment when I realized how much reading has helped me with mental wellbeing by shifting my perspective on various topics. As we’re celebrating mental health this month, I thought it would be cool to share with you how turning pages has been transformational for me. 

​So, here’s to you turning pages (literally) in your life, too.
