Book Club: January 2026 Pick!

... drum roll....

Reclaiming Body Trust by Hilary Kinavey & Dana Sturtevant!

Hey bookclubbers — thanks for being here! 💛I’m really excited to introduce our next read: Reclaiming Body Trust by Hilary Kinavey & Dana Sturtevant.

This book was chosen through your votes — from Instagram polls and the emails you sent in — which makes it feel especially meaningful to begin the year with it together.

Full transparency: this will be my first time reading this book, too. I intentionally didn’t read ahead, because I wanted this to be a shared experience rather than a guided-from-ahead one. From what I know of the authors’ work and the body trust framework, this feels like a thoughtful, grounding place to start.

📅 When to Start

Official kick-off: Monday, January 12

📚 How to Join In

Find a copy of the book — however you prefer:

• Physical copy

• Audiobook 🎧

• Or a mix of both 📖

Bonus for clients:If you’re one of my local/in-person clients, I’ll be adding three copies to the office library. Feel free to grab one next time you’re in.

Also new: I am testing out the "Storygraph" app as an alternative to good reads- they have some "read along" features that seem interesting, so join me on there if you are interested :)

📖 Reading Schedule

We’ll move slowly and intentionally:

• Jan 12–18 Pages 1–36, Chapters:“I Am a Person Reclaiming Body Trust,” Introduction, The Foundations of Body Trust

💬 How This Works

• Open the floor for your insights

Read when you can, share when you want, and take what’s useful
