Creating a Salon
The Magic of Conversations that Matter
Introduction
A practical and personal exploration of the transformative power of salons in many cases, a next-level evolution of a book club with hosting advice tailored for different goals, budgets, and personalities. Salons are enjoying a renaissance worldwide.
What Are Salons?
More structured than a hangout or casual dinner party, and oftentimes an evolution of a successful book club, salons can spark lively discussions and help develop a joyful, intentional community. Blending focused and informed advice with heartfelt reflection, book industry professional Linda-Marie Barrett shares her experience hosting salons at her home—the lessons learned as well as the life-changing connections she discovered—and guides readers through the what’s, why’s, and how’s of creating their own salons.
How to Cultivate Deep Conversations
Learn how to cultivate deep conversations and authentic connection using Barrett’s clear guidelines and real-life examples, including helpful suggestions for handling even challenging scenarios. Readers will also hear directly from members of Linda-Marie’s Black Swan Salon, who share their perspectives along with advice for how to build a better salon.
Bonus Content
As a bonus, this book includes 14 salon starter kits, each on a different theme, to help readers host with confidence.
