We are so joyful, and so delighted, to bring our first installment of the Pragmatic Alchemy Bookclub to you! This month's selection is Inciting Joy, by Ross Gay.

Courtney was joined by a lovely group of fellow readers to reflect on the resonant themes of the book, as well as Gay's other work, The Book of Delights, and the ways joy and delight show up in our every day lives.

Some shoutouts from this episode include: ⁠Well Worn Books⁠, in Middletown, NY, and ⁠Bookish⁠, in Camas, WA, as well as online resources ⁠Bookshop.org⁠ and ⁠Libro.fm⁠.

Next month's selection is Come As You Are, by Emily Nagoski, and it would bring us tremendous pleasure if you joined us!

Reach out if you'd like to participate in the bookclub, have topic ideas, guest suggestions, or other commentary about the podcast. You can reach us at courtney@shineandsoar.com. Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe wherever you are listening. Share with a friend!
