Life changing book!

This is a book I insist anyone who identifies as a woman reads!! & the earlier in life the better.

Untamed by Glennon Doyle. It made me cry, question my beliefs, form a new identity on my own terms & stop hiding from my feelings.

It helped me tune into my own voice & find "what is true and beautiful to me".

If you:

• don't know/are rediscovering who you are

• society's version of success doesn't fit you

• have big feelings you try to push aside

• have negative beliefs about yourself

This book is an absolute must read!!

... Read moreGlennon Doyle's book "Untamed" encourages women to break free from societal constraints and embrace their true selves. With over 2 million copies sold, this New York Times bestseller has inspired countless women to unlock their inner power and live authentic lives on their own terms. The book focuses on validating emotions as a crucial step to freedom, helping readers confront pain and fear instead of avoiding them. This process of emotional acceptance equips women to become resilient, courageous, and true to their own values. By introspecting and embracing their feelings, readers are empowered to overcome negative self-beliefs and societal pressure. "Untamed" emphasizes that life is a continual evolution, where becoming one's true self requires courage to face discomfort and change. Doyle calls for readers to dismantle the parts of themselves they have been taught to hide—such as intuition, imagination, and emotions. The book also highlights how consumer culture often distracts from genuine self-discovery by promoting superficial solutions, urging readers instead to find inner richness through self-awareness. This compelling narrative advocates for living boldly by stepping out of restrictive roles and saying, "Here I am." It resonates particularly with women who feel disconnected from their intuition, who struggle with emotional overwhelm, or whose visions of success diverge from mainstream ideals. Ultimately, "Untamed" serves as a powerful guide to help women resurrect their authentic selves and foster lifelong growth through compassionate self-acceptance and inner truth.

I have written a book about domestic violence including my own experience. I would love to read this one also. It’s a timely and important time to read about this societal issue.
