Are you ready to tap into your inner badass and release the greatness that burns inside? Core Endeavors is pleased to invite interested women to join our FREE book group to read and discuss You are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life by Jen Sincero.
We define ourselves as pretty badass women. We understand how busy, exhausting and exhilarating being a badass can be! We want to get to know other badass women and form a badass female community, sharing our collective badassery with the world at large.
The book we have selected for our first FREE book group is fun, insightful and has immediate applications, big and small. It’s not exactly free—you will need to obtain your own copy of the book… And—spoiler alert—the book does contain a swear word here and there; we are comfortable with that and understand that not everyone is, hence the alert. It also contains direct talk, humor and inspiration to help release and embrace your inner badass.
Here is the plan for those who would like to join us on this badass journey:
Register your badass by Sept. 30 at this LINK. You will need to register in order to get the discussion group call in information.
Sept. 11 - 19: Obtain your copy of the You are a Badass... book
Sept. 20 - Oct. 6: Read and explore the Intro and Parts 1, 2 & 3 of the book
Oct. 6: Join us at 7 p.m. Central Time for a 60-minute facilitated discussion via our favorite pandemic platform--Zoom
Oct. 7 - Oct. 28: Read and explore Parts 4 & 5, Resources and Acknowledgements sections of the book
Oct. 29: Join us at 7 p.m. Central Time for a 75-minute facilitated discussion, including how to fully apply your bassassiness, via Zoom
Oct. 30 - Ongoing: Let your badass self shine through with everything you believe, say and do!
Please note that we will record the Zoom sessions for those who are interested in joining the community but may not be able to attend the live discussions. You must register in order to attend live or get the recorded link. Through random drawing, we will be giving away a special prize to three badass women who attend live or view the recording!!
Questions we anticipate badass women may have:
Why this book? Our answer is why NOT this book? It’s accessible, it’s funny, it’s poignant, it’s immediately applicable, it’s inspirational (we could go on, but hope this is enough for you!).
Why are we giving what seems like a lot of time to read around 125 pages before each discussion? Everyone reads at a different pace. Everyone approaches books and book groups differently based upon what’s happening in their lives. There are insights and exercises throughout the book that are helpful to engage in during the reading--we want you to have enough time to not just read but also to truly experience the book and your emerging badassery.
What if I forget to do the reading or simply don’t have time? We will post some reminders and accountability snippets on our Facebook page to help keep it in front of you. If you know you won’t have time, please feel free to register anyway so that you can access the recorded Zoom sessions when it works for you. We do encourage you to put your badass self first and set aside time to read and reflect and join us live if you can!!
What if I can’t make the live Zoom sessions? We know that badass women have a lot going on, especially with our pandemic-era lives. The sessions will be recorded for later viewing, so don’t let scheduling conflicts hold you back from connecting in based on your availability.
Besides a new book, what other badass things will I get from joining the group? Book groups and discussions are great for connecting with other people, learning with and from them, sharing stories, and even forming longer-lasting relationships. The book is the vehicle to even more badass development if you are open to possibility!
Will there be more badass book group opportunities in the future? We sure hope so! We look forward to getting people’s feedback during and after the discussions that will help inform us on where we go from here.
We hope to connect with you in this badass book group—register today!
For our male fans—please forward this opportunity to badass women in your network who you think would embrace the chance to learn and grow with other badass women!
