INTRO

Do you get frustrated when you don’t understand a passage?

Or when someone asks you, “What’s your book about?” your mind goes completely blank… 

Have you been judged in the past by the way you read, what you read, and how you read? 

In general… have you ever felt anxiety when it comes to reading?


Well, I’m so happy you’re here. This is your space and place to feel accepted, loved and no longer judged by your reading. 


This is The Anxious Reader Series, hosted by… Me! Alexandra Shelly.. CEO, Founder of DogEared Book Club and host of my podcast, DogEared Book Club. 


Every Tuesday, this is where I’ll share tips and tricks on how to get through these reading anxieties. Whether that be having a hard time focusing, feeling lost with a passage, disliking a book, reading slowly, not having time to read, oh the list goes on! 


As someone who has diagnosed anxiety, depression and ADHD, these reading anxieties are more than prevalent in my everyday reading practice. I’ve gotten better over the years, but I’m far from perfect. And neither is everyone else. 


Episodes will be available on an exclusive feed on Apple Podcasts, along with show notes, blogs and links to books mentioned. The Anxious Reader will also have books of the month, reading meditations, live streams and more, all on Mighty Networks


If you’d like to dive deeper into the DogEared Community and join the club, go to dogearedbookclub.co, ‘Memberships’ and join today!


Again, all you anxious readers. You are seen, heard, loved and I am so happy to have you here. 


LAUNCH: TUESDAY, JANUARY 4TH
