Bookclub & Networking: Chatter:The Voice in Our Head,WhyItMatters&HowtoHarnessIt

Dear Book Club Members,

“Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It” by Ethan Kross explores the concept of inner self-talk and the impact it has on our lives. The book delves into the science of how our thoughts and inner voices, often referred to as “chatter,” can influence our emotions, decision-making, and overall well-being.

On another note, we have an update to share. We’ve come a long way on our journey of personal development and enlightenment, with over 4 incredible years of sharing knowledge, insights, and, of course, great books! Our Book Club has grown to include more than 1100 enthusiastic members, and this is a testament to the value we’ve all found in this community. With pride, we have maintained a remarkable 4.9-star rating from our cherished members.

To keep our Book Club thriving and ensure a more dedicated and engaged participation, we are making a small but meaningful change. Starting with our next event, there will be a $5 fee to attend our gatherings, payable via PayPal (See below for other payment methods). This change allows us to continue providing quality content, maintain an active, committed community of like-minded individuals, and cover the cost of the Meetup platform.

*Why the Fee?*

1. *Meetup Fees:* Meetup, the platform where we post our events, isn’t free. Your contribution helps cover this cost and ensures we can keep our Book Club running seamlessly.

2. *Attendance Commitment:* Charging a modest fee through PayPal encourages members to RSVP with a genuine intention to attend, reducing the frustration of no-shows.

3. *Quality Content:* By introducing a $5 fee, we can invest in finding better books and maintaining a comprehensive library of personal development resources.

4. *Value to Your Life:* We want to highlight that this $5 fee is a small investment in your personal growth. Our Book Club, proudly rated at 4.9 stars, has consistently added value to our lives through the wisdom of books and the support of fellow members. It’s an opportunity to contribute to the sustainability of our group while continuing to reap its benefits.

*The Details:*

– The fee for our events is $5, payable via PayPal. If you don’t have a PayPal account, please message the host on the platform, and alternative payment arrangements can be discussed. No payments will be accepted at the event.

– Please complete your payment in advance to secure your spot.

– We’ll continue to provide a welcoming and engaging atmosphere for meaningful discussions, learning, and growth, with a renewed focus on book selection and discussion.

Thank you for understanding and supporting this transition. We believe it will help us maintain the quality of our Book Club, and our 4.9-star rating is a testament to the value it adds to our lives.

We look forward to your continued participation and the exciting times ahead. Let’s keep reading, growing, and evolving together!

Best regards,
Dr. Sara L.
