Rosey’s Reading Room is Merging with the Naturally Rosey Substack 📚💫
Same Cozy Corner, Just a Little More Official (And Even More Magical)
*Crafted through thoughtful collaboration between Rosey and ChatGPT.
Hey friends,
In January, I opened a warm, quirky little corner of the internet we call Rosey’s Reading Room. It’s blossoming and taking on a life of its own—I couldn’t be more proud 🥲
That said, an evolution is in order!
Starting May 2025, Rosey’s Reading Room will officially merge with the Naturally Rosey Substack and become a paid subscriber benefit. 🌸
Here’s the dealio…
What is Rosey’s Reading Room? 📚
In case you’re new here: Rosey’s Reading Room is a low-stress book club for soulful, curious humans who like their literature with sides of laughter, community, and depth.
There’s no homework. No pressure to talk. You just show up, listen to me read out loud (yes, I do voices), and if the spirit moves you, you can join in during our discussion breaks. People often eat dinner, stretch, or clean their kitchens while listening. It’s like an audiobook—but live, co-regulated, and communally weird in the best way. 💗
We’ve been meeting since January, and something beautiful is growing. The group has grown more connected, vulnerable, and present with each passing week. It’s quickly become one of my favorite spaces to show up in—and the feedback has been incredible.
Every Zoom call is recorded and shared with the group, so if you’re not able to attend live, you can always catch up on the reading at your own pace. I record from the beginning to the end of the reading—leaving out our check-in and closing circles to support the privacy of those on the call. 💻
🏘️ Rosey’s Reading Room is a live, community-based discussion experience. Participants are encouraged to purchase or borrow the book being explored. This space is offered in the spirit of fair use, with deep respect for authors and creators.
Why the shift?
Starting in May, I’ll be offering Rosey’s Reading Room exclusively to paid Substack subscribers—that’s $5.55/month or $55.55/year.
Here’s why:
This work—the reading, the holding of space, the uploading of recordings, the behind-the-scenes nurturing—takes love and energy. I want to keep showing up fully for it. And to do that, I’m making a conscious shift:
✨ I want to give more to the people who are investing more time and attention in my offerings.
✨ I want to direct the richest of my resources and the most concentrated of my attention to those investing financially.
✨ And I want to offer focused value to folks who may be curious about coaching but aren’t ready or available for a 1:1 commitment.
I’m so excited to fold this into Substack and give it even more love. ❤️
What’s changing (and what’s not):
🔹 Meeting frequency is going up! We’ve been meeting twice a month, and now we’ll shift to three+ meetings each month. More time together = more magic.
🔹 We’re finishing Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse on April 24th and starting The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks on May 1st (one of my all-time favorites!). Depending on the flow, this tentative timing may be pushed back a week, meaning we would finish Siddhartha on May 1st and start The Big Leap on May 8th.
🔹 If you’re already a paid subscriber, nothing changes—you’re good to go.
🔹 If you’ve been joining us and want to stay connected, I’d love for you to upgrade your subscription and keep growing with us. 💛
🔹 And if you’ve been meaning to join but haven’t yet—now’s the perfect time to hop in.
✨ Not sure yet? You can start with a free 7-day trial of the paid subscription—come check out Rosey’s Reading Room and see how it feels!
🧾 Prefer not to use your card through Substack? I totally get it—I’ve gone through phases of prioritizing cash payments too. If you'd like to become a paid subscriber without putting your card into the platform, just reach out! We can arrange a direct payment, and I can comp your subscription manually on the back end. Easy. 💫
