I joined a book club with the girls on my Arbonne team back in May, and itās been such a fun addition to my routine this year.
The pick for August is one I probably wouldnāt have picked up on my own: Traction by Gino Wickman.
Mostly because I didnāt think it would be particularly relevant to me. Iām a Pilates + yoga teacher, not someone running a huge company with a leadership team and a boardroom š
But I ended up getting SO much out of it.
The ideas around leadership, decision-making, consistency, focus, solving problems, and working on the business rather than constantly in it felt surprisingly relevant to building a sustainable teaching career and business.
And, tbh the book itself is only part of the valueāØšÆāāļø
Having a space to talk through the ideas with other women, hear what stood out to us, challenge each otherās perspectives, and connect the concepts back to our own businesses has made me think about them on a much deeper level.
Itās been a good reminder that personal + professional growth doesnāt always have to look like another course, certification, or strategy session.
Sometimes itās just being willing to pick up a book you wouldnāt normally choose, stay curious, and let yourself be challenged by a different way of thinking.
These were some of my biggest takeaways! Which one resonates with you most, or has you thinking?
