In 2025 I'm really hoping to stop scrolling social media in the morning and would love to replace the habit with reading…but here's the kicker: I'm usually up around 5 am with my toddler. I need something to read that I don't have to fully pay attention to but would be something good to do in the morning while I'm fully awakening and drinking my coffee. Social media is great for this but I don't really want my kid to always see me on my phone.
I love self help – I have anxiety and have had depression on and off. I read a *ton* of romance at night but that's not really what I want to be reading while watching my kid.
I'd like to get something out of it but also not have to think too hard or be enveloped in something too deep. I know this is vague, but maybe someone has some great tips!
