About THE GRIM CIRCLE

Each month centres on one book, 12 a year, supplied as a PDF and an audiobook, and the group turns its ideas into action through habits, challenges and tools.[1][3] Members also get 2 hands-on live workshops each month, regular masterclasses from experts within the community, and accountability partnerships.[1][2] A Daily Wins channel is where members share progress, and the circle is also used to find mentors, co-founders and friends worldwide.[1][2] Other themes include identifying a personal archetype and rewriting the narrative of one's life.[1]

A separate group, the Ring of Grim, is a private fellowship of entrepreneurs, leaders, athletes and professionals, all men, who gather in person and build companies.[2]

As of September 2026, the operator's own site, grimcircles.com, listed a Monthly Plan at $29 a month, a Yearly Plan at $299 a year and a Lifetime Plan at $1,099, while the GRIM HUSTLE shop listed The Grim Circle at $33 as a pre-order.[2][3] Membership can be cancelled at any time.[2]
