A Book Club for Growth-Minded Women

The Align Book Club is a book club for women leaders who value both growth and genuine connection.

In this newly launched book club, we read powerful books focused on personal growth, leadership development, mindset, confidence, career growth, and purpose-driven success — then gather for thoughtful, high-value discussions.

This is a welcoming and reflective space for ambitious women to reflect, exchange ideas, expand their thinking, and build relationships with other growth-minded leaders across industries.

Come as you are, leave inspired, and grow together.

✨ Open to both members and non-members of Align Society, and registration is required for all participants. Space is limited

We asked our community for recs and to vote on their favorite book, and this month we're reading Rejection Proof: How I beat fear and became invincible throughout 100 days of rejection, by Jia Jiang, Founder of 100 Days of Rejection Therapy

"Jia Jiang came to the United States with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed and spiraled into a period of deep self-doubt. Jia realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be; he needed to find a way to cope with being told “no” that wouldn’t destroy him. Inspired by rejection therapy, which uses similar modalities as exposure therapy to desensitize you to the effects of being rejected, he undertook the “100 days of rejection” experiment, during which he willfully sought out rejection on a daily basis—from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes) to his famous request to get Krispy Kreme donuts in the shape of Olympic rings (yes, with a viral video to prove it).
Over the course of one hundred rejection attempts, Jia realized that even the most preposterous wish might be granted if you ask the right way. He learned the secrets to making successful requests, tactics for picking the right people to approach at the right time, and strategies for converting an initial no into something positive. More important, Jia discovered ways to steel himself against rejection and live more fearlessly—skills that can’t be derailed by a single setback. The changes Jia experienced from his rejection therapyexperiment went far beyond becoming more successful in business; he realized that he could apply these techniques to get more out of his relationships with friends, family, and even casual encounters with strangers."
