Playing Big : A Four-Week Book Group

Playing Big Book Club
Step Into Your Power. Speak Up. Lead with Confidence.

Do you feel a calling for something more—a life where you express your voice fully, pursue your dreams without hesitation, and step into your true potential? Many of us find ourselves holding back, caught between self-doubt and the desire to play bigger in our careers/business and lives. But what if you had a supportive community to explore your potential, build confidence, and take bold action?

I’m inviting you to join me for a special Playing Big Book Group, based on Tara Mohr’s transformational book Playing Big: Practical Wisdom for Women Who Want to Speak Up, Create, and Lead. Over four weeks, we’ll dive deep into the powerful tools and insights that help us move past self-doubt, unhook from praise and criticism, and embrace our unique voices with confidence.

Why Playing Big?

Many of us struggle with self-doubt, fear, and the pressure to conform to others’ expectations. Playing Big offers practical tools to help us break free from these limitations and embrace our unique gifts. Whether you’re looking to advance in your career, pursue a calling, or show up more authentically in your life, this book provides the guidance and inspiration to make it happen.

The Playing Big Book Club is your space to:

  • Embrace Your Aspirations – You have dreams that deserve to be realized. Gain clarity and take meaningful steps toward them.

  • Quiet Self-Doubt – Learn how to move past the critical inner voice that holds you back.

  • Overcome Fear and Perfectionism – Shift from over-preparing and waiting for permission to taking empowered action.

  • Trust Your Inner Wisdom – Tap into your own voice and intuition to make aligned decisions.

  • Connect with Like-Minded Women (all genders are welcome) – Surround yourself with individuals who uplift and inspire each other on their journeys.

What’s in the Program?

We'll come together over Zoom for four virtual weekly sessions, and we’ll explore key themes from the book, including:

  • Quieting your inner critic and tuning into your inner wisdom

  • Overcoming fear and unhooking from praise and criticism

  • Stepping out of hiding and taking bold leaps

  • Communicating with power and clarity

Each session will include discussion, reflection, and actionable steps to help you apply the concepts to your own life. Whether you’re new to Playing Big or revisiting it, this group is designed to meet you where you are and support your growth.

Why Join?

This experience is my way of creating a ripple effect of empowerment—one conversation, one insight, and one bold step at a time.

It is an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, gain clarity on your goals, and take meaningful steps toward playing bigger in your life. If you’ve ever felt stuck, held back by self-doubt, or unsure how to move forward, this group is for you. Together, we’ll create a supportive space to explore, grow, and inspire each other.

If this resonates with you, I’d love you to join me on this journey. Let’s play big together!
