Book Study
If you live in the Las Vegas area, come and join a motivated and powerful group of women on a journey of empowerment.
Empowering Women Book Study is an opportunity to connect with like-minded women to form friendships and a support network, to clear up areas in your life in which you may be struggling, to create a different vision for your future, and to commit to taking action to make that vision a reality.
The study group is more than just a book club. Each session will be led by me, Nadia J Charles, transformational life coach and hypnotherapist and each session will guide you using the books we read to make real and impactful change in your life, relationships, career, finances, and emotional and spiritual well-being.
*The cost of the book study, not including the books, is $20/per month or $5 per session. Be sure to check back here for updates for future books.*
