*This is a short-form book club where we explore big ideas through bite-sized reads, short videos, or quick listens — and relaxed, open conversation.*

Why do some messages grab our attention instantly while others barely register? Inspired by the *Hook, Story, Offer* framework from *Dotcom Secrets by Russell Brunson*, we’ll explore how this simple pattern shows up everywhere—from ads and social media to movies, politics, and even everyday conversations.

* You can go as deep or as shallow in reading/watching/listening about this, just as long as you know a little for context. There’s a couple of resources below and a ton online. No need to go down the rabbit hole just for the purposes of this meeting.

\*\* I am **NOT** affiliated with Russell Brunson or trying to sell you anything! Just wanted to mention that because the article, the video, and any googling of this will inevitably lead to his funnels where you will be hooked, storied, and offered… LOL
