Featured Book: Think Again by Adam Grant
Date: Monday, August 10, 2026
Time: 7:00 to 8:30 PM

Think Again explores the power of rethinking our opinions, challenging our assumptions, and staying open to new ideas. Adam Grant makes the case that intelligence isn't just about what you know, but about your willingness to question what you think you know. Through engaging stories and practical insights, he shows how intellectual humility and curiosity can lead to better decisions, stronger relationships, and personal growth.

Whether you've read every page or haven't started the book, you're welcome to join us. We always enjoy thoughtful conversation, and we'd love to have you there!

About book club

The Health and Wellness Book Club was born from a shared love of learning, wellness, and meaningful conversation. As healthcare practitioners, we found ourselves constantly recommending books to patients, friends, and each other—so we decided to create a space to explore those ideas together.

Our book club is a casual, inclusive gathering where we read health and wellness-related books and come together to chat about what inspired us, challenged us, or made us think differently. Whether you're a practitioner, a patient, a book lover, or just curious about health, you're invited. We meet every 8-10 weeks, and each meetup is an opportunity to connect, reflect, and grow—one book at a time.

Come for the books, stay for the community.
