You’re receiving this pre-scheduled message while I’m deep in rest-mode (yes, actual rest; yes, again). Reader, This year I'm sharing books a little differently. Instead of forcing myself into the usual end-of-year productivity rituals, I’m honoring what my body and brain actually want:
If you screenshot the pic above, your smart phone should give you the option of converting the titles to text. What books are nourishing you right now? What’s shaping your thinking, your practice, your politics, your imagination? Hit reply and send me your list — even if it’s just one title, even if you’re halfway through, even if it’s a book you want to read but haven’t started yet. Your recommendations help me expand the worlds I read from. And I can’t wait to return from my break and read what moved you. With warmth, slowness, and a stack of books, Silvana ⬆️ Let's connect! |

If you want a practice where marginalized clients feel safe, seen, and honored—and you want to feel more grounded and intentional in your work—subscribe and join a growing community of practitioners doing this work differently. You practice can be liberatory-- let's get you there!

March 2026 Reader, At the end of the Gregorian year, I took a full month off from therapy clients. And I actually took time off. I didn’t check my work email, I disconnected completely, and I left out-of-office messages everywhere they could possibly live. I intentionally didn’t plan a vacation. I stayed home to, I guess, hang out with myself. No specific plans. No productivity goals. No “use this time wisely” strategy. Just a stack of books that I promised myself I would peruse, not finish...
