A sacred space for soul work, seasonal transformation, and inner awakening.
Welcome To A Book Circle Like No Other
This is more than a book club—this is a mini retreat for your spirit, a seasonal sanctuary for self-discovery, intuition, and collective growth.
Every two months, we explore a powerful book aligned with the seasons and chakras, supported by group discussions, healing practices, and in-person gatherings. This cycle is designed as a mini retreat for the soul: a spacious and intentional container to awaken intuition, activate your inner compass, and reconnect with your wild self.
Each cycle is a portal—an invitation to step into deep soul work through the sacred act of reading, reflection, and gathering. Through story as medicine and community as mirror, we awaken our inner compass, remember forgotten truths, and reclaim the wild wisdom that lives within.

Book 1:
Finding Your Way in a Wild New World by Martha Beck
“Your own wild new world is waiting—not to be discovered, but remembered.”
Season: August – September
Chakra Focus: Solar Plexus
Theme: Intuition, Soul Purpose, Reclaiming Power
In our first cycle, we journey with Martha Beck into a realm of deep knowing, where logic softens and soul leads. This book invites you to reconnect with your wild self—the one who hears the whisper of leaves, knows how to read subtle energy, and is ready to reclaim personal power from within.
