Book Club

JOIN BOOK CLUB! 

​

What I need, and what I'm hoping some of you might love, is a monthly book club that feels like a buzzing tavern full of fascinating stories and ideas.

​

WHO: Curious, brave-hearted, open-minded, mid-career professionals who love books!

​

WHAT: Our books are all nonfiction - leadership, self-development, science, memoir, essays, etc. We spend two months on each book. Please come even if you haven’t read the book - maybe life's really busy or maybe you just didn't like the book - no judgement. Each session begins with a guided activity drawn from the book so that even if you didn't read, we have a shared experience to talk about. Join every month or just for that one book you are dying to read. That said, I hope it quickly becomes the one Zoom meeting you would be devastated to miss.

​

WHEN & WHERE: We meet 4-5 pm Pacific time on zoom, generally on the last Thursday of every month (with some exceptions due to travel or holidays).

​

HOW: Book club is an add-on to my newsletter with 2 extra emails a month with book club updates. Sign up below!
