Beyond the Bookclub: We Are The Books We Must Read by Ruthie Landis

“Beyond the Bookclub is more than a handbook for personal evolution. It’s also a wealth of resources to support any change-maker leading a community of introspective activists, something desperately needed in today’s challenging times. Written with a reverence for the wisdom of the integral self, the Enneagram and the natural and creative world, the reader is able to explore their human experience through a diverse exploration of perspectives. Ruthie expertly guides the reader using a heartfelt narrative, a grounded sense of humor and an ability to gently dig deep into the tough questions we all need to ask to consciously evolve. Throughout the book, I often felt as if I was engaging in an intimate and meaningful conversation with Ruthie herself, allowing me to reflect on my own vulnerabilities with compassion. As Ruthie writes: “We read books to learn more and expand our consciousness and perspective. We read ourselves to do the same. We must commit to shining light in the dark places of our psyche.” Fortunately for us, Ruthie has provided us with a personal torch in Beyond the Bookclub to illuminate our way in taking action toward positive transformation.” —Emanuel Kuntzelman, philosopher, writer, public speaker, social entrepreneur and founder and president of the Chicago-based non-profit Greenheart International, and a founder of the Global Purpose Movement.
