Shelf Discovery: A Book Club for Your Next Chapter


A monthly “mindset happy hour” for women who want connection, insight, and inspiration.

If you’re curious about exploring growth, sparking transformation, and feeling more grounded, inspired, and supported in your life — without the intensity of therapy — this is for you.

Led by therapist and author Jodi Baretz, LCSW, Shelf Discovery blends meaningful conversation, modern self-help, humor, and real-life insights you can actually use — all in a relaxed, fun, and supportive space.

✨ How It Works

Kickoff Call: January 27th — no book required (sign ups start in January) 

First Book Discussion: February 24th, ongoing monthly (book announced in Jan.)

Meetings: Last Tuesday of every month (join anytime) 

Time: 5:00–6:00 PM ET (your monthly mindset happy hour)

Where: Zoom (replay included) Link and dates given upon sign up.

Cost: $27/month (a no-brainer) billed automatically until you cancel. 

✨ What to Expect

You don’t need to finish the book.

You don’t even need to start the book.

Just come as you are — with your coffee, wine, tea, or fuzzy socks — and join a warm group of women navigating midlife with honesty, humor, and intention.

Each month, we’ll dive into a book that sparks reflection without feeling heavy — covering topics like getting out of our own way, managing our thoughts, and exploring inspiring stories of growth and transformation, and more.

✨ Why I Created This

I wanted a space where my past group members, clients, lake friends, and anyone craving growth could gather — without the pressure of therapy, the emotional heaviness of support groups, or the formality of traditional book clubs.

Just connection. Just conversation. Just an hour that feels good.

✨ Who It’s For

Women in midlife and beyond (loosely defined) who want:

  • connection without oversharing
  • growth without homework
  • inspiration without overwhelm
  • If that sounds like you… you’ll feel right at home.

 

A great way to socialize and connect in a meaningful way. Come join us!
