What we’re about
Welcome Readers,
This is an online book club that will meet up once a month to discuss our reads. However, there may be 2-3 meetings a month so we can review several books at once.
If you are unable to read the book please know that you are welcome to sit in on the discussion. You may have a relatable story or just get inspired to read the book.
Also, we will revisit the same book upon request for those interested in chatting about a previous read.
If you have a recommendation please let me know and I will schedule an event for it.
Thank you for joining Love and Light Book Club ❤️

Book Summary:
The Courage to Be Disliked is a bestselling book that tells the story of an unhappy young man who visits a philosopher seeking guidance. Through five conversations, the teacher helps him take control of his own life and happiness. The book explores how to become free from others' judgements and separate tasks from external influences. It is based on Adlerian psychology, with the philosopher being influenced by Alfred Adler, a friend of Sigmund Freud.Disclaimer: I am not a teacher, therapist, or the author of this book. I am an avid reader hoping to connect with other like-minded individuals that are focused on becoming the best version of themselves.
