It’s the last Tuesday of the month Bes-teas and you know what that means! It’s Book Club time!! Let’s talk about this week's book, The Pivot Year by Brianna Wiest. Although Tashima did fumble the ball, we will give her a small pass for her reasoning. It was a slightly convincing argument 🤭.
We discussed another great book, Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies: And other Rituals to Fix Your Life, From Someone Who’s Been There. Both Books promote a growth mindset, encouraging personal development and self-improvement.
Grab your cozy slippers, a nice drink because Bes-teas you are all invited to join the book club discussion. Share with us your own growth mindset insights.
Have you read/listened to Allegedly by Tiffany D. Jackson? If not, what are you waiting for?! It’s an awesome pick. Show us your face when you get to the end 🤯.
**Tashima's book club pick for our next meeting will be: The Midnight Library, but Matt Haig
This book has quite some buzz and we are here for all of it. If you have a book club pick you want to read with us let us know below or at hellobesteas@gmail.com. See you next week Bes-teas xoxo.

Happy Tues Bes-Teas! In this episode we have a dilemma when a woman's husband is caught in a lie, claiming she is his sister to avoid suspicion. This story from Reddit exposes the lengths some people will go to hide their affairs. Bes-teas would you pop-up or simply ask him directly?
Through another Reddit thread we explore and compare the complex emotions surrounding loss. Two siblings experience losses around the same time but handle them very differently.
Let us know your thoughts below or at @hellobesteas@gmail.com

The chaotic realities of air travel, student loan drama, and a timeshare gift from hell are explored through relatable and humorous Reddit stories. Bes-teas share your own experiences and how you would navigate these stressful situations AKA nightmares. Would you spend all your money to pay off your siblings student loans? Would you have given up your seat on the plane for a bratty kid? Also, what are your thought on taking a little of the corporate bottom Robinhood style 🤭?

Hey Bes-teas, get ready to hear some shocking, bizarre, and unexpected Reddit threads that Maggie scoured the dark depths of the internet for. It is true what they say, you CANNOT eat at everybody's house 🤢. Grab your fuzzy slippers and probably something to drink (you just might need it to get through this first thread). We also talk about Michelle Obamas show The Later Daters, the Martha Steward Documentary and sleeping with 1,000 men in 24 hours 👀.

Meet Tashima
Living in the Sunshine State most of her life; Tashima is a mom of two wonderful crazy kids, while also working full-time in the healthcare industry for almost 20 years and counting. However, her passion is in creative writing, screenwriting, and whatever else the flavor of the week is. Never a dull moment and always keeping busy.
Meet Maggie
When she is not keeping up with her two rambunctious boys or working, Maggie can be found creating various things, crafting or reading. A lifelong Floridian, she enjoys spending her leisure time at the beach and revels in the year round sunny climate. Maggie is a hardcore goal setter and thoroughly enjoys checking items off of her constantly growing to-do list.
