I’m always shocked by the amount of people who are as interested in personal development as I am! It’s so encouraging to know that there are so many women out there like me, in search of becoming their best selves. I’m so glad I stumbled upon personal development a few years ago and how much of an influence it has had on my life.
Yesterday on social media, I shared that I was thinking about starting a book club based on personal development books to see if anyone would be interested. I am BLOWN away by the amount of interest and response! At first, I wasn’t even sure what to do since so many people were interested.
After I slept on it, I realized that although I had an idea of what this Feed Your Mind book club would look like, it doesn’t mean it couldn’t also include another option. My solution, two book clubs, a small and a large. So here are all of the details for the
Feed Your Mind Book Clubs:
Each month we’ll be choosing a book from the Feed Your Mind book list. To learn more about the list check out my post about it here. In both groups, we’ll be reading the same book, discussing our likes and dislikes along with how we plan to apply what we’ve learned into our lives to become the best version of ourselves.
The book for October will be announced tomorrow, Friday, September 21 at 6pm CT. This should allow enough time for everyone to get their copy by October 1st.
Large Book Club
Due to the large amount of interest in the book club, we will have a large private Facebook group, Feed Your Mind Book Club, which you’re welcome to join now! This group will include everyone who is interested in being a part of the book club. We’ll discuss the book throughout the month as we read it. At the end of the month, I will share a date and time that I’ll be going “Live” in the large Feed Your Mind Book Club. This will allow us all to interact together “Live” and discuss our overall opinions of the book.
Small Book Club
The small group will include 20 people who are interested in a more intimate setting. This will allow it to function as your average book club. We’ll have a private Facebook group that I will invite you to once the sign up process is complete. In the group, we’ll interact throughout the month to discuss the book and can decide how and when we’d like to meet virtually as a group. At the end of the month, we’ll have a video conference with all members of the small group to discuss our overall opinions of the book and what we intent to apply to our lives to become the best version of ourselves.
I will be providing a sign up opportunity for the small group on Sunday, September, 23 at 5pm CT. It’ll be first come first serve so don’t hesitate to sign up if you’re interested since it’ll fill up fast!
Cost
Both groups will be free to members except for the cost of the book, which will be at their own expense. Find the book list of upcoming books here: Feed Your Mind Book List.
This is my first experience with a book club so bear with me while I learn the ropes and how to manage it all! Since this is the first month, I will see how it all goes and will likely continue it each month. Be sure to follow me on social media and join the Ladies In Pursuit group to keep up-to-date on upcoming details for the next book club!
