You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life

I love the title! It tells the truth about each of us and that we can’t let life, friends, family members or our own negative thinking tell us that we are not badasses.

It wasn’t some kind of earth-shattering revelation, nor did it offer novel information with many specific guidance. It was, however, a feel-good read with some pumped energy to get someone psyched into changing their mindset. Personally, I found myself in disbelief of the Nike-esque “just do it” messaging telling me to throw all caution to the wind. Some things you can’t simply manifest, and you certainly can’t just ask The Universe to remedy poor financial decisions. The lessons felt a bit tone-deaf for those of us who haven’t yet ‘made it,’ or perhaps aren’t seeking guts and glory. I did, however, find myself inspired to maybe start researching how to write and publish a book of my own. That’s the only actionable advice that stuck.

Such a frantically written book! I can see what all the hype was about. I loved every minute of it. Especially the witty comments.

love it

I personally loved this book, but members of my bookclub thought it was a little cringey!
