The greatest project you'll ever work on is you. Healing takes inner work that some people spend a lifetime avoiding. The sooner you begin, the sweeter the journey. December is a perfect time to reflect and establish a game plan by setting intentions, not resolutions, for the New Year.

From love and finances to self-care and overcoming racial trauma, this list of self-help books is a great resource to enhance your perspective on life's challenges in 2023 and beyond.
