What we’re about
Read, learn & evolve!
Personal Growth Book Club, is the first club of its kind in Copenhagen, which offers a space for individuals interested in personal growth to meet, discuss and together explore self-improvement related topics. A best seller book (potentially a TED Talk) provides a starting point for discussion, and members are encouraged to share thoughts about the book as well their own experiences with challenges they may have faced.
In our club, we focus on a plethora of topics including changing habits, cultivating resilience, being more productive and many more. The aim is to become better versions of ourselves, achieve more success, and contribute to the communities we live in.
Meeting Time & Place:
Once a month / online or announced for each event
Joining the club:
Anyone interested in reading and discussing books is welcome - no fee required.

- A safe space to discuss about the topic
