Over the years, many women have asked me what I read when my own life was dismantled in my mid-twenties — what helped me understand cycles, psyche, the body, and the deeper rhythms of initiation.
These are the books that steadied me.
They helped me find language for what I was living through. They grounded me in cyclical wisdom. They expanded my understanding of women’s bodies, thresholds, and the natural seasons of descent and renewal.
This is not a “must read everything” list.
It’s a companion shelf.
Take what speaks. Leave the rest.
If, as you read, you feel something stirring, and you want support walking your own threshold, I hold 1:1 bodywork immersions, seasonal women’s circles in Adelaide, and a year-long initiatory journey for women ready to go deeper.
For now, begin here.
