About this Event
Step into a community of readers, thinkers, and creators as we explore texts that inspire ancestral healing, cultural connection, and collective empowerment! This is a direct application of feedback we heard from folks when we held our open house, and we're so excited to share that Ancestors in Training™ is launching a virtual Book Club - and you’re invited.
This isn’t just about reading books; it’s about creating a beautiful, shared experience where we:
✨ Connect with transformative texts that align with the AIT concept
✨ Share insights, reflections, and creativity in a welcoming space
✨ Strengthen bonds with fellow AITs committed to healing and empowerment
As part of our 2025 offerings - including Writing with the Ancestors and a six-week course poetry and ancestral healing course - this book club is a unique opportunity to deepen connections amongst eachother and while doing legacy work in real time.
Here’s how it works:
🌟 Bi-Monthly Gatherings: Guided discussions and creative prompts
🌟 Flexible Pricing: Sliding scale per session ($25-$55) or $180 for the year (save $30!) If you want the year bundle, please email us at ancestorsintraining7 [at] gmail [dot] com
🌟 Member Perks: Session recordings, merchandise discounts, and an exclusive end-of-year celebration.
