Welcome to

  The Next Chapter

             Book Club 

A monthly gathering for business owners, coaches, and curious minds who love to learn through books.


This is a space for thoughtful conversation, professional growth, and shared learning. Each month, we read a book focused on business, coaching, or personal development. At the start of the following month, we meet online to discuss insights, takeaways, and how we’re applying what we’ve learned.


How It Works

  • Books Chosen Quarterly: We select books 3 months in advance so you can plan ahead.
  • Monthly Online Meetups: Join us at the start of each month for a live discussion.
  • Global-Friendly Scheduling: Meeting times vary to accommodate different time zones.
  • Free to Join: Registration is required, but there’s no cost to participate.


Who It’s For

This club is ideal for:

  • Business owners and entrepreneurs
  • Executive and leadership coaches
  • Professionals passionate about growth and learning


  • What to Expect in a Session

    Each virtual book club session runs for 60–90 minutes and follows a simple, structured flow:


    • Welcome & Check-In – Quick introductions and a chance to share what drew you to the book.
    • Main Discussion – Guided conversation using a blend of core questions.
    • Action & Application – Each person identifies one insight or action they’ll apply in their business or coaching practice.
    • Wrap-Up – Key takeaways, next month’s book, and closing reflections.

    You’re encouraged to join with your camera on, if possible, to help create a warm and engaging space.

  • Group Size & Format

    To keep conversations meaningful, each session is limited to 4–8 participants.


    This is a live, interactive discussion rather than a webinar, you’ll be invited to share your reflections, listen to others’ experiences, and explore how the ideas land in real-world business and coaching contexts.

  • How We Structure the Discussion

    Before each session, you’ll receive 3 guiding questions to help you reflect as you read.


    • What was your biggest takeaway from this book?
    • Which idea challenged your thinking the most?
    • How does this book relate to your current business or leadership challenges?
  • Our Reading Themes

    Across the year, our book choices focus on five core themes:


    • Leadership & Coaching – becoming a more confident, effective leader and coach.
    • Business Strategy & Growth – building sustainable, scalable businesses.
    • Productivity & Habits – working smarter, not harder.
    • Emotional Intelligence & People Skills – communicating, collaborating, and leading with impact.
    • Coaching & Leadership Development – deepening self-awareness and expanding your toolkit as a leader.

    Books are chosen quarterly so you can plan ahead, with a mix of classics and fresh voices.
