The Hustle to Heart Bookclub
A community and refuge for achievers seeking meaning beyond success.
When you live in a world that celebrates the hustle, it takes courage to step off the hamster wheel and build a life rooted in real fulfillment—not just achievement.
Hustle to Heart is a monthly bookclub of achievers daring to redefine success. Through thought-provoking reads and rich conversation, we support one another as we trade burnout and achievement-chasing for presence, meaning, and vitality.
I’m Hailey. I built the life I thought I wanted: booming coaching business, six-figure book deal, hundreds of thousands of followers.
On paper, I was living the dream. But after years of striving, the success I’d worked so hard for began to feel hollow—and my heart longed for something deeper.
My life looked impressive from the outside—but on the inside, I was burnt out, depressed, and meaning-starved.
I kept on this way for years—waiting for a fulfillment that never came—until, at the peak of my career, a series of unexpected losses shook me awake.
I suddenly saw how narrow my world had become, and how many parts of myself—and my life—I’d neglected. Success, I realized, was never meant to be my meaning.
This realization helped me slowly release the pressures of achievement, and embrace connection, creativity, and a vital new chapter—one where work mattered without being my whole world.

How It Works
Beginning on Wednesday, June 10, Hustle to Heart meets every second Wednesday from 11am-1pm PT. Enrollment closes on May 31.
Every month for six months, H2H enjoys a non-fiction book that explores the topic of finding meaning and purpose beyond conventional success. Every book has an audiobook version for those who prefer to listen.
We gather on Zoom every 2nd Wednesday from 11am-1pm PT for our monthly meeting. Our meetings are gently facilitated, combining rich discussion questions, small breakout rooms, and coaching exercises.
Our monthly coaching worksheets distill each book’s insights into key frameworks and guided prompts—helping you craft a personalized plan to live from heart, not hustle, at a pace that feels right for you.
Between meetings, you can participate in a members-only H2H WhatsApp chat, where you can share thoughts, celebrations, resources, and stay in touch in-between meetings.

The Backstory
For over two years, I’ve hosted a non-fiction bookclub in Seattle—and it’s quickly become one of the greatest community experiences of my life.
Over time, what began as twelve strangers discussing ideas over a potluck dinner became much more: a space for rich vulnerability and deep friendship that spans far beyond our monthly meetings.
Firsthand, I’ve seen how powerfully an intimate bookclub can foster personal transformation, create community, and inspire lifelong connection. My goal is to create this same transformative experience in Hustle to Heart—and I hope you will join us!
