Alex Elle is best known for low tech, high impact Instagram messages like this one. Her 1 million strong Instagram following is proof that these are just the kinds of personal touches we all need now more than ever.

This month, she’s following up with a new guided journal, In Courage, that will help self-care seekers access her style of personal support tools more directly.
As a celebrated modern storyteller, we asked Alex to talk to us about what she’s reading as we begin yet another unusual year. Here’s what she shared below…
