The Free PEOPLE RICH Book Club Guide: Grow Closer, One Good Conversation at a Time

Turn new acquaintances into friends. Grow closer to the people you already care about.

That’s why I created the free PEOPLE RICH Book Club Guide.

A book club gives you a reason to gather. This guide helps you get to know each other through the stories, experiences and goals that don’t always come up in everyday conversation. I call them Deep Meaningful Conversations, or DMCs.

Book clubs are the new social channel

Book clubs are having a moment. They have become one of the best ways to make new friends and have smart conversations.

They still gather in living rooms and libraries. Now they also bring strangers together in supper clubs, discussion circles, bars, cafes and even dance clubs.

Every one of those tables is a chance to turn strangers into friends. The guide gives your group the questions to go deeper.

Inside the free guide

  • Questions that spark DMCs, helping you discover what matters to each other
  • Two ways to gather: discuss the whole book in one meeting, or connect chapter by chapter over time
  • A hosting checklist and ready-to-send invitation to make getting started easier
  • A 15-minute Thank-You Round to recognize someone who made your life richer and join our goal of thanking 1 million people

Start with the people around you

Bring the guide to the club you already have. Or invite a few people you’d love to know better, and start one together.

Then share it with someone you’d love to get closer to, one good conversation at a time.

With gratitude,
Emily
