Start With Why
Simon Sinek

Start With Why is a powerful read for any book club interested in leadership, motivation, and purpose. Sinek argues that the most successful individuals and organizations begin by identifying their core “why”—their purpose—which inspires others and drives meaningful action. Through real-world examples and practical insights, the book encourages readers to reflect on their own motivations and how they can inspire those around them. Its engaging stories and thought-provoking questions make it perfect for sparking lively group discussions and personal growth.

Find Your Why
Simon Sinek

We’re starting the year with a book that asks us to get brave, get honest, and step fully into who we’re meant to be. Find Your Why isn’t just about purpose — it’s about claiming the power behind your story. Simon Sinek offers a clear, soulful roadmap to uncover the moments that shaped you, the strengths you naturally carry, and the deeper “why” that’s been guiding you all along.

This is a book for women who are ready to align their lives with intention, clarity, and unapologetic confidence. If you’re craving direction, meaning, or a spark to reignite your passion — this read will meet you right where you are and pull you forward.

Mind the Gap
Dr. Karen Gurney

This month, we’re diving into a book that every woman deserves to read. Mind the Gap pulls back the curtain on the myths, misunderstandings, and straight-up misinformation we’ve been fed about sex and desire — and replaces them with clarity, confidence, and science-backed truth.

Karen Gurney, a clinical psychologist and sex therapist, brings a refreshingly modern, shame-free perspective to the table. She breaks down how desire actually works, why so many women feel like something is “off,” and how much of that is rooted in cultural conditioning rather than anything wrong with us.

This is a book about reclaiming your narrative, your pleasure, and your voice. It’s smart, honest, liberating — and the kind of read that sparks conversations we’re more than ready to have.

The Poisonwood Bible
Barbara Kingsolver

Set in 1959, The Poisonwood Bible follows the Price family, who move from Georgia to the Belgian Congo as part of the father’s missionary calling. Nathan Price is rigid, self-righteous, and determined to “save” the village of Kilanga — no matter the cost. But the Congo is on the brink of political upheaval, and as the country fights for independence, the Price family begins to unravel under the weight of cultural arrogance, faith, colonialism, and survival.

Told through the distinct voices of the mother and four daughters, the novel explores how each woman transforms in response to both the African landscape and their father’s unyielding belief system. At its core, the book is about power — spiritual, political, and patriarchal — and what happens when certainty collides with reality. It’s sweeping, intimate, and deeply reflective about guilt, redemption, and the cost of imposing your truth on others.

The Soul of Money
Lynne Twist

In The Soul of Money, Lynne Twist invites us to rethink everything we believe about wealth, scarcity, and what it means to live a life of purpose. Drawing from decades of experience working in philanthropy and global activism, she shares stories from communities around the world revealing how our mindset around money shapes our lives.

At its heart, this book challenges the myth of “not enough.” Not enough time. Not enough success. Not enough money.

Twist proposes a different framework: sufficiency. The idea that we are enough, and there is enough when we align our values with how we earn, spend, invest, and give.

For women especially—who are often taught to shrink, apologize for success, or feel conflicted about ambition—this book offers a liberating reframe. Money becomes not something to hoard or fear, but a tool for impact, generosity, and meaningful change.
