Good Reads for Strong Roots – Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best

This quarter, we’ll be reading Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best by Angela Duckworth, a thought-provoking look at how our surroundings shape who we become.
Duckworth, the bestselling author of Grit, draws on psychological research and real-world examples to show that the people, places and environments around us can influence our thoughts and behaviour as strongly as our own willpower. She offers practical ways to recognize which situations bring out our best and our worst, and how to shape them on purpose. It’s a timely, accessible read that invites rich discussion about personal growth, the environments we create for one another, and the quiet forces that shape our choices every day.
All proceeds from the ticket sales of this event will support a local Canadian charity.
