Welcome to the Rooted & Rising Book Club, the soulful sanctuary where books become portals, growth is sacred, and no path is too wild.
Are you interested in a monthly, nonfiction read about changing your mindset, the importance of getting out in nature, how the arts transform us & much, much more? Then this is your book club.
This is more than a book club—it’s a homecoming to yourself. Inside these pages and circles, you’ll find soulful connection, deep reflection, and the courage to walk your unique path.
Here we ground into ancient wisdom and rise into our future selves—together. So grab your journal, light a candle, and let’s turn the page on who you’re becoming!
Each month we’ll explore a book that helps us grow, root into who we are, and rise into who we’re meant to be. Expect prompts, meditations, community calls, and magical moments.
You are not alone. You are guided. And you are rising.
Let’s begin!
Rooted & Rising will help you:
Deepen your understanding of who you truly are–beyond the noise, the roles & the expectations.
Learn to trust your inner wisdom by exploring books & practices that bring you back to your inner voice–the one that always knows.
Discover practical insights & empowering takeaways to support real-life growth–emotionally, mentally, spiritually.
Find a community of like-minded people who walk beside you as you rise.
Open your heart & mind through diverse stories, spiritual teachings & personal development frameworks that challenge & expand you.
Find deep emotional healing through holding you as you move through what no longer serves you–gently & powerfully.
Sync your personal growth with the moon cycles, seasonal shifts & intuitive timing, so your development feels natural–not forced.
Celebrate every rooted step & radiant rise along the way!

Rave Reviews
“The first Rooted & Rising Book Club was amazing. I’m going to be honest: I’m not much of a reader nowadays with two young kids and a crazy work schedule. But I’m seriously so glad I joined. It was such a nice little break and I loved all the women I got to meet! We met at this super cute old bookstore, had the space to ourselves, some wine, and easy, deep conversations. An intimate setting with a great new community that I instantly loved. Highly recommend!”

“I was given Four Thousand Weeks months ago and Rooted & Rising gave me the push I needed to (re-)start and finish the book! It was a wonderful opportunity to have some meaningful conversations (and a glass of vino) and connect with others in a safe and welcoming environment. The space is the cutest independent bookstore that has amazing selections. I’m so thankful to be able to join others and tap into a less analytical brain space with so many jokes along the way!”
Michelle
“The Rooted & Rising Book Club was souch a soul-filling experience. We met in the cutest little bookstore, had the whole space to ourselves, sipped wine, and had the kind of deep, thoughtful conversations you don’t often get in everyday life. It was equal parts laughter, reflection and connection. Such a grounding and uplifting way to grow–with the loveliest group of women. If you’re looking for community connection and a reason to actually finish a book: this is the place!”

“I loved the rooted & rising book club – a great group of gals with thoughtful conversation and unique perspectives. This group pushed me to think outside of my comfort zone, allowing me to talk about my passions while also encouraging each other to pursue new interests. Definitely excited to attend again next month!”
