Come join us as we explore our shadows.....both the dark and the light. Our exploration of the shadow is based on the groundbreaking work of Debbie Ford.

Integrating our shadows super-charges manifestation, frees us from the shackles or our wounded ego, and allows us to become the highest expression of our selves. We will explore t …

There are several book clubs out there but they either seem to be disbanding, specialized or for women only so I decided to start this one. I am the former organizer of a large book club in Nashville which, I'm proud to say, is still going strong and I hope to bring that same success to this one. I had the opportunity to read a lot of great books I may not have picked up on my own and I hope to be introduced to even more! This is a co-ed bookclub that will meet once a month, at local coffee sho …

The Book (Was Better) Club is for cinephiles and bookworms alike. Each month, members will select a book for which a film adaptation was (or will be) made. To keep discussions productive, caps will be placed on how many may attend a given meeting, but meet-ups will be held at least twice a month. So if you don't R.S.V.P. in time for one, just join another! Events will range from discussions (over coffee, tea, wine, or my personal favorite: FOOD) to in-home movie viewings and trips to the cinema.

Interested in joining a book club where everyone actually reads the books and wants to talk about them? Join this group! We will select books from various lists like Time Magazine's Best Books of All Time, 1001 Books to Read Before You Die, the NY Times best books lists, and anything else we choose! Each meetup will be loosely structured to include discussion topics as well as friendly conversation! "Vonnegut" together??
