We all have room to grow and become better, healthier, and happier versions of ourselves. Whether you're struggling to dismantle cultural norms that don't work for you, scared to make the career change you've been dreaming about, or have to work through trauma, there are so many inspiring self-improvement books to help you tackle the physical, mental, and emotional stumbling blocks in your way.
For decades, many of these texts have catered to a predominantly white audience, but increasingly writers of color with backgrounds in counseling, spirituality, business, and social justice have been scribing reads for marginalized communities in particular. Here, we've selected some of our favorite self-help books by Latinx writers that are at once insightful, affirming, valuable, and culturally relevant. In these pages, you'll gain guidance and practices to help you become a healthier and happier version of yourself.
