Online Monthly Book Club (Ages 18-35)
Nothing replaces community, and the support and care of others is powerful. Some people love books, some listen to the audio books and others only dream of finding the time or space for reading and its all they can do is hop on the call. Books change every 2-3 months. Regardless of your situation, if you memorize the book or never bother ordering it, there will be a few key take aways. The point is for you to feel comfortable and connected, and have consistent support.
