Welcome to Literary Forest

Tired of feeling overwhelmed by your emotions while drowning in content that doesn’t actually help? Frustrated by endless content recommendations that don’t actually fit your life right now?

I help people transform emotional overwhelm into clarity using stories and neuroscience. Whether it’s a book, podcast, or Netflix series – every story you consume is shaping your nervous system. I help you choose media strategically. Through personalized media matching and self-guided tools, you’ll develop the emotional awareness and self-compassion that creates lasting change.

What I’m consistently seeing: people feel immediate relief from being truly seen and heard, then finding resources that resonate with exactly what they’ve shared.
