An excellent, quick, and engaging read for embracing your true self
The central message in this book is to be true to yourself and safe with yourself. This is a very thought-provoking read. I found myself highlighting much of the book – there is THAT much good content!
The author covers the many factors that all inevitably impact our self-identity – from other’s opinions of us to our actions and personal values to our internal dialogue. I found myself steeped in self-reflection as I read this book, as so much of what is written here rings true. After all, we are all a pile of mistakes, and that’s perfectly okay.
After reading it, this gives me extra encouragement to be the best version of myself. Toward the end of the book, Ms. Zeppieri wraps up her message by stating “Bravery isn’t about going places you know well, it’s about making roads where there are none, with your intuition as your compass.”
This is a great read for everyone, as we all have a tendency toward negative self-talk and need to work on self-compassion, self-acceptance, and should strive to be true to ourselves. Well done!
