caprivoyant's review
Personally, I especially appreciated the essay/chapter on ableism in the spiritual and energy-healing communities. It validated a lot about how I experienced that community and made me feel less alone or like less of a failure by not being able to change it.

Definitely made me realize how often disability gets overlooked in public spaces.
Gave me hope that a care-centered community is possible.
Although a lot of the material talked about is sad (check TW), overall I felt the tone of the book was extremely hopeful, and I found the intimate look at care-centered communities beautiful and spiritual.

I think it would be vaulable for anyone, but it would especially be valuable for folks who are disabled (or neurodivergent, Mad, crippled, whatever language you may use personally), queer and/or a trauma survivor.
