The Courage to Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi & Fumitake Koga

What could your life look like if you stopped needing everyone to understand, approve of, or agree with you?

Join Holistically Divine Counseling® for the next chapter of Between the Lines, our 6-session virtual book club experience combining books, meaningful conversation, creative expression, community, and holistic wellness.

Together, we'll explore The Courage to Be Disliked and examine what it means to live with greater freedom, authenticity, self-acceptance, and courage—even when doing so may disappoint others.

Throhout the 6-session experience, we'll explore:

The difference between belonging and seeking approval
Letting go of the need to be liked by everyone
Recognizing what belongs to you—and what belongs to others
How past experiences influence us without having to define our future
Developing the courage to make choices aligned with your values
Navigating comparison, expectations, relationships, and criticism
Strengthening your relationship with yourself
Exploring freedom, authenticity, and connection through the 8 Dimensions of Wellness
