If you know me closely, you’ll know imma Type 7 (Enneagram test) which basically means that at any given time I have 30 ideas on the go with another 2040823 as back up. Any type 7s here? Do you feel me? I had this idea to start a book club. I LOVE learning, specifically via listening. I’m an audiobooks and podcast gal!
First of all, you need to know that I’m running this via INSTAGRAM. I figure that you’re already on the gram anyway, so all you gotta do is flick through a few DMs. Boom. The modern book club. Do you love it? Disclaimer, totally wasn’t my idea but when my friend suggested it, I jumped at it. Obvs.
How it works:
We will be covering one book in each 6 week block. You can read/listen at whatever pace you like. Each week there will be questions posted on this account’s story. Message your response and it will be shared. This will be our discussion. Tuesday is our discussion day.
It’s up to you how you choose to read! You can buy the physical book or borrow it from your library, read on Kindle or listen on Audible.
Remember to take notes and record your takeaways to use in the discussion.

Our first book:
In Girl, Stop Apologizing, #1 New York Times bestselling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis sounds a wake-up call. She knows that many women have been taught to define themselves in light of other people–whether as wife, mother, daughter, or employee–instead of learning how to own who they are and what they want. With a challenge to women everywhere to stop talking themselves out of their dreams, Hollis identifies the excuses to let go of, the behaviors to adopt, and the skills to acquire on the path to growth, confidence, and believing in yourself.
