This Might Be Too Personal - Book Club Pick

November's book club pick is This Might Be Too Personal by Alyssa Shelasky. I talk about why I chose a book full of the stories we're told not to tell: the ones about love, breakups, illness, divorce, and everything else that feels like too much to say out loud. I get into why we keep our most vulnerable stories surface-level to protect ourselves, how I've learned to share with more discernment than I used to, but why I still believe that telling the whole truth somewhere in your life gives your story power and gives other people courage. I also share how the book met me in my own season of life and why being a little too much is sometimes exactly what's needed.

Key Themes:
