Through her groundbreaking research, award-wining journalist and bestselling author Jennifer Breheny Wallace explores how mattering – the feeling that we are valued and can add value – is a core human need that is just as essential as food and water.

She identifies the essential elements of the mattering core, which include knowing that you are valued, relied upon (but not too much), significant, cared for, and deeply understood, and discusses how each element is important whether you’re an overwhelmed caregiver, burned-out employee, struggling through a transition, or grappling with grief.

Order your copy of Mattering and join us virtually on Thursday, October 29th at 7pm as we explore how mattering impacts the way in which we show up for ourselves, our families, and our community.

This discussion will be co-hosted by Jennifer Bernheim, founder of Willo, and Natalie Ponte, owner of Schmendrick’s Bookshop. Registration is free. You will receive the zoom link one day prior to the virtual event.
