10 Books That Changed My Life
A reading list that will shift your perspective
Happy Sunday Fam ❤︎
This week, I wanted to share something more tangible—my favorite book recs! and I’m excited to see if you’ve read any.
I was never really a big reader growing up, unless it was the click books lol, BUT I’ve always believed that books have a way of finding us at just the right time. The ones that land in our hands when we’re in the midst of a transformation, searching for answers, or just needing a shift in perspective. Over the years, there have been certain books that felt like teachers, like little guides lighting the way through my journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal expansion. Each one supported me in a different way—guiding me to new opportunities, deeper understanding, and even some unexpected mentors in my life.
If you’re on your own path of self-exploration, I hope this list becomes a bucket list of reads to check off! These 10 books have profoundly shifted my consciousness, expanded my perception of life, and helped me step into a more aligned, soul-led way of living.
…and if you’re more of an audiobook person like me—these are all amazing to listen to like a podcast while on a walk, making tea, or just chilling in bed. Sometimes, just hearing the words land different and can make all the difference.
✨ Sacred Contracts by Caroline Myss
I’m obsessed with Caroline Myss. This one completely shifted the way I see my existence in the world. It introduces the idea that our souls create “contracts” before we come into this life—agreements about the lessons we’re here to learn and the roles we’re meant to play. It really shifts the way you see every relationship you’ve ever had in a really healing way.
✨ Medium Mentor by MaryAnn DiMarco
For anyone interested in strengthening their intuition and connecting with the unseen, this book is incredible. It helped me trust the subtle messages of my inner guidance, understand signs from the universe and deepen my relationship with my own intuitive knowing. Maryann has been a mentor of mine for years and her teachings are really digestible.
✨ Meet Your Soul by Dr. Elisa Romeo
If you’ve ever felt the pull to live life from a deeper, more intuitive place, this book is an all time favorite of mine. It’s about shifting from a mind-driven existence to one that’s guided by the wisdom of the soul. Reading it felt like a remembering. Validating a deep part of me that has always been in connection with my soul, but never fully understood it
✨ The Way of Integrity by Martha Beck
This book is an invitation to be radically fucking honest with yourself. It taught me that integrity is about aligning every part of your life with your deepest truth. If you’ve ever felt out like you’re living a life that doesn’t quite feel like yours, this book will help you unravel the layers of conditioning and guide you back home to yourself.
✨ The Defining Decade by Meg Jay
For anyone in their 20s (or navigating a major life transition), this book is a must. It completely changed the way I saw this phase of life—not as a time of aimless wandering, but as a crucial period for shaping the future. It’s full of wisdom on work, love, identity, and how to consciously create a meaningful life instead of just waiting for it to happen.
✨ Manifestation Mastery by Christina Rice
This book took my understanding of manifestation to a whole new level. It’s not just about thinking positive thoughts or scripting desires—it’s about deep energetic alignment and shifting subconscious patterns that keep us stuck. Christina is an incredible intuitive and the insights channeled in this book are super powerful.
✨ Energy Anatomy by Caroline Myss
This book is like an energetic roadmap to the body and soul. It explores the connection between emotions, beliefs, and physical health, showing how energy moves (or gets blocked) within us. Understanding this helped me take a more holistic approach to healing—seeing illness and imbalance as signals from my soul rather than just physical symptoms.
✨ Awaken to Your True Self by Andrew Daniel
This book is for the deep divers—the ones ready to face their shadows and do the real work of self-awareness. It challenges you to see where you’ve been holding yourself back and offers profound insights on emotional healing, presence, and breaking free from the illusions of the mind. I definitely felt super fucking confronted when reading it, but sometimes we gotta dig deep and be totally honest with ourselves if we really want to change our ways.
✨ Letters to a Starseed by Rebecca Campbell
This book felt like a love letter to my soul. It speaks to those who have always felt a little different—like they don’t quite belong to this world but are here for a bigger purpose. It’s poetic, mystical, and deeply validating for anyone on a spiritual journey. if you think you’re a starseed, you know where to find me :)
✨ How to Heal Yourself When Nobody Else Can by Amy B. Scher
One of the most empowering books I’ve read on self-healing. It’s packed with practical tools for releasing emotional and energetic blocks, helping you take your healing into your own hands. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your healing journey, this book will be really helpful in showing you how powerful and resilient you really are.
These books have truly each been a portal—leading me to insights that have allowed me to access deeper layers of myself. They remind me that the journey of self-discovery isn’t just about learning new things; it’s about remembering who we truly are.
