I have been looking forward to telling you about this month’s Bliss Babe Book Club because this one feels a little extra special to me. 🤍
Maybe it’s the setting.
Maybe it’s the book.
Or maybe it’s because the woman who wrote our September book is someone I’m lucky enough to call my friend.
On September 22, we’re stepping inside the beautiful Speakeasy Library Room at The Old Stone Inn in Niagara Falls for an evening of celebration with conversation, charcuterie, wine and, of course, a little Bliss Babe magic. ✨
And I have a feeling this is going to be one of those evenings we remember.
📖 THIS MONTH’S BOOK
I Just Got Fired
by Cara Krezek, M.A.
And yes, beautiful…I want you to actually READ this one before you come. 😉
Not just skim it. Not just show up and listen to everyone else talk about it.
Read it. As she puts it...scribble in the margins.
Because I don't want us to simply talk about the book.
I want us to talk about what it makes us think about.
Unexpected endings.
Work.
Identity
Confidence.
Starting over.
The moments when life doesn't go according to plan. Because haven't we all had those moments?
Sometimes we get the ending we wanted.
Sometimes we absolutely don't.
And sometimes what feels like an ending becomes the beginning of something we never could have imagined.
And that's where I think the really good conversations are going to happen.
You can order and pick up your copy at the Apiary or you can order here.
Grab your copy, find a cozy little spot, pour yourself something you love and give yourself some time to read.
Then come with your thoughts.
Your questions.
Your favourite parts.
The things you loved.
The things you didn't.
And whatever made you stop and think…
Hmmmm…
Because that is Bliss Babe Book Club.
🤍 A LITTLE ABOUT THE WOMAN BEHIND THE BOOK
CARA KREZEK Author • Entrepreneur • Leadership Strategist • Founder of The Apiary
And this is where it gets even more personal for me. Cara Krezek isn't just the author of this month's book — she's become a friend to many of us.
I’m blessed enough to know Cara personally, and I also have the pleasure of working at The Apiary, the incredible women’s co-op she founded.
The Apiary is a space built around women, connection, collaboration and community — so bringing I Just Got Fired into our Bliss Babe Book Club feels like such a natural fit. Meet Cara
Cara is an entrepreneur, leadership strategist, speaker and author of the Amazon bestselling book I Just Got Fired: Turning Your Worst Career Moment into Your Best Next Chapter.
After an unexpected career transition changed the trajectory of her own life, Cara founded The Apiary Inc., where she helps people and organizations navigate change, uncover their strengths and build what comes next with greater purpose and intention.
A former university leader and nationally recognized expert in career development and experiential learning, Cara brings a candid, practical and deeply human perspective to conversations about work, identity, resilience and reinvention.
And that’s something I really love about Cara.
She doesn't just talk about change from a distance.
She's lived it.
She understands what it feels like when life suddenly takes you somewhere you didn't plan to go — and the questions that can come with figuring out what happens next.
And now she’s sharing that perspective with all of us through I Just Got Fired.
I’m really excited for you to read her book.
But honestly?
I’m even more excited to sit with all of you and talk about it.
Because when you know the woman behind the words, the conversation somehow becomes that much more personal.
The book starts the conversation. The women make it unforgettable. 🤍
✨ SEPTEMBER BLISS BABE BOOK CLUB Tuesday, September 22
6–8 PM
The Old Stone Inn, Niagara Falls
Speakeasy Library Room
$45 per person
Your evening includes charcuterie + a beverage.
And because we're keeping this gathering intimate, space is limited.
And if you haven't already, join us on the Bookclubs app.
That's where our Bliss Babe reading community lives between gatherings — where we share what we're reading, stay connected and keep the conversation going.
I honestly cannot wait for this one. A beautiful room. A great book.
Something delicious to sip and share. And a room full of women with stories, opinions, experiences and their own chapters unfolding.
Come read the book. Come bring your thoughts. Come sit with us.
And maybe, somewhere between the pages and the conversation, you'll see a little bit of your own next chapter differently. ✨ With so much love & gratitude,
P.S. Don't wait until the last minute to read I Just Got Fired. 😉 I want you to come ready to talk, laugh, question, share and really be part of the conversation. See you in the Speakeasy. ✨
