The Selfish Book Club is back!
Nurture yourself by taking a deep, slow dive into some of the self development/ creativity/ productivity greats... 🌿
Hello love!
If like me, you like reading books in the self development/ productivity/ creativity genre but find you quickly forget the learning, ideas and wisdom in them or kind find a way to make it all STICK, I have something for you - and I am SO into it!
The Selfish Book Club is coming, offering a slower, deeper dive into some amazing books.
Instead of rushing through a book in a month, having a quick discussion and moving on, in the usual way of book clubs, I'll be taking you through the ideas and goodness of each book in a slower, deeper way via special resources that I am creating and opportunities to share ideas in community.
Life can be a lot and sometimes, and I know the idea of reading one more book a month feels too much to fit in.
So I intend to spend anywhere between 6-12 weeks per selfish book, depending on the length and the content so that no one feels rushes, or behind and that there’s plenty of space to let the content breathe.
Members will be given exercises, journal prompts and voice notes from me to help explore the current chosen book fully and we can also discuss the ideas as a community in chat threads too for those that want to.
You can also just work through it on your own and treat it as a lovely personal exploration of the themes in the book and a way of giving yourself some much needed reflection time. Everything will be delivered via email with stuff to download and use/ keep and as with all my stuff, take what you want, leave the rest ;)
My biggest hope is that by discovering a book in this way, you have time and space to reflect on and embed the ideas and learning in the books and also to start taking some action to make changes in your life.
The first book is, as you can see, Big Magic by
.I appreciate you might have read this already as it's not a new book, BUT, and here's my point; even if you have read it, perhaps some years ago now, you probably haven't got out of it all that you could. And I want to help you do that.
I also chose Big Magic as I know it's a book that is in a lot of people's 'to be read' pile!
And finally I chose it as I KNOW that it can be a read transformational read! It was for me. And I want to create that experience for you and to help you unlock as much of the wisdom as possible.
The club is part of my paid membership which is hosted on Substack. It is just £7 a month which also gets you a monthly live journaling session and some other cool stuff.
If you’re already a paid member, you’re already in he club, whoo! 🎉 and I know some of you are really excited about it ;)
Look forward to sharing more with you soon!
With love,

PS I you are on Substack I would really appreciate a share of this post in notes to help spread the word!
Thank you for picking a book that I already read and own. Now I don't feel pressured to read and finish quickly. Sounds wonderful!
I'm really looking forward to rereading this. It's been a while and I'm definitely further along in my creativity journey than I was when I read it before
