General Questions

During book reading, do I need to read?
No, you don't need to read! You can just listen if you like. Participation is always optional and we welcome listeners who just want to soak in the story.
For meetings, do I need to show my camera?
No, you don't need to show your camera. We respect your privacy and comfort. Whether it's a social event, book club, or body doubling session, video is always optional.
Do I need to have the book to read with us?
No, you don't need to own the book! We read aloud during our sessions, so you can follow along and participate fully just by joining the call.
Do I need to do prior reading before joining a session?
Not at all. We process the text together in real-time. Whether you're new or have missed previous sessions, you can jump right in and start learning with the group immediately.
What kind of tasks can I do during Body Doubling?
Absolutely anything! Our members use Body Doubling for office work, household chores, administrative tasks, creative projects, and even emotional processing. If it requires focus, you can do it here.

Our Channels & Threads

We use Telegram and Discord to host our different activities. Here is your roadmap to our digital spaces.

Telegram Ecosystem
Book Read-Aloud (Book Read Red FE)
This is our primary thread for the Book Club. It's where we post exactly where we reached in our latest reading session (e.g., the ERE book), so you're always caught up.
Live Chat (Open, can be muted)
The heartbeat of the community. This chat is open during and after meetings. It’s especially useful when sessions are packed and we have "too much to share" in the time allotted. Keep the conversation going here!

Note: Feel free to mute this thread if you prefer not to get constant notifications during busy hours.
Shared Resources
Think of this as our communal library. Drop in notes, links, and resources you find interesting that might benefit other members.
Co-working / Body Doubling + KPIs
This thread is for action. It’s where we track scheduled focus sessions, request on-demand partners, and find partners for Emotional Clarity exercises using our shared frameworks.
