On this episode of Restorative Reading & Writing for Wellness, I’m chatting with Abby to help her build a book apothecary for the season ahead. Join me as I talk all things books with a listener and build a book apothecary that will serve, soothe and nudge.

Abby is a literacy educator who is content in her life, but also feels a bit of unrest. She wants to build a book apothecary focused on four key words: freedom, grow, nourish and connect. In addition to growing her reading life in nourishing ways, she’d also like to grow her writing life to help her uncover and decide upon her next steps in the season ahead. I have a feeling a lot of us are going to be nodding our heads and writing down titles in this episode!
