After running 3 years of our in person book club, it was time to bring this online. I want to bring together a group, a community of like-minded women who love to read, nurture their inner wisdom and celebrate the divine feminine that they are. By being open, curious is how we grow and expand.

We will meet every 6-8 weeks online on Zoom where we discuss a particular book. The range of books will focus on self-development, spirituality, women empowerment and ways we can relate this to our everyday world. Each session we will discuss and share our insights from the book and most importantly how these learnings can be embodied as we grow. I will guide the gathering, with key discussion points, however the main goal is for me to create space and allow the sharing of wisdom within the group.

Here are the details of our next gathering and also the book we will be diving into:

**May 2026 Gathering:**

Date: 13th May, 2026, 6:30-8:30pm

Location: Online on Zoom

Book: **The Gifts of Imperfection** – Brené Brown

You can purchase the book at either Amazon or your local book shop or see if you can borrow it from your local library.

(Details of future gatherings tbc. Please join the Waiting List to be notified).

There will be a fee for joining the gathering of £6. This encourages commitment by participants and ensures we are supporting any costs of the book club, so we can continue to run this going forward.

I recommend you RSVP in advance to book your space and leave you sufficient time to read the book. I will close the RSVP 1 day before the event.

**Welcome to the Women Awakening Book Club.**

I wanted to bring together a group, a community of like-minded women who love to read, nurture their inner wisdom and celebrate the divine feminine that they are. By being open, curious is how we grow and expand. 

We will meet every 6-8 weeks in a London cafe, where we discuss a particular book. The range of books will focus on self-development, spirituality, women empowerment and ways we can relate this to our everyday world. Each session we will discuss and share our insights from the book and most importantly how these learnings can be embodied as we grow.

This was my first time at Women Awakening Book Club and I will certainly come back. I loved the discussions that we had off the back of the book. Everyone was so open, honest and vulnerable with sharing their opinions, feelings and experiences and it felt like a very safe space. The questions Sonia prepared were very thought provoking and allowed us to have a great session and discussion

I absolutely love these book clubs hosted by Diya Within. They are well structured, engaging and eye-opening. The books chosen usually have some real nuggets of wisdom for us to chew on (with future book suggestions being welcomed). It's a safe space for women to come together and discuss interesting and important ideas. Each session feels like a big hug and I always coming away having learnt something new.

Hiya Within provides a beautiful space for like minded women to talk, coexist and share their thoughts and perceptions on the deep topics introduced to the group. I love the space and the energy. 

Been to a few Diya Within Bookclub sessions in 2024, and all have been a well structured, warm and wise. The Bookclub attracts lovely wise women and is always an enriching experience!
