#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Over two million copies sold! Packed with incredible insight about what it means to be a woman today. Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club Pick)In her most revealing and powerful memoir yet, the activist, speaker, bestselling author, and patron saint of female empowerment (People) explores the joy and peace we discover when we stop striving to meet others' expectations and start trusting the voice deep within us.NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY O: The Oprah Magazine The Washington Post Cosmopolitan Marie Claire Bloomberg Parade Untamed will liberate women emotionally, spiritually, and physically. It is phenomenal. Elizabeth Gilbert, author of City of Girls and Eat Pray LoveThis is how you find yourself.There is a voice of longing inside each woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good partners, daughters, mothers, employees, and friends. We hope all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives and wonder: Wasn't it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful, hiding our discontent even from ourselves. For many years, Glennon Doyle denied her own discontent. Then, while speaking at a conference, she looked at a woman across the room and fell instantly in love. Three words flooded her mind: There She Is. At first, Glennon assumed these words came to her from on high.

One of the most women empowering books

I’ve reread this book multiple times. I’ve never been able to read a book so fast not wanting it to end. The best this about this book is the author wrote this about themselves and everything is so honest. Everything is moral and relatable. This book makes you feel seen and gives you a path and the strength to move when you’ve thought you belonged at this place your whole life. I keep waiting for another book for her to put out. You fall in love with the person who wrote it not just her story.

Inspiring and beautifully written

I read many reviews of the book before reading it, and I was worried if I would like it or not. One of the reviews said that it was boring, and it was just another woman thinking she had her life finally figured out. I kept those sentences with me while reading the book. I've been trying to figure out that myself, and while reading glennon's work, I felt that through the book she was trying to find that herself too. The book is a journey. She talks about addiction, love, kids, society, beliefs, happiness, sadness. It is beautifully written, and I kept many tabs and highlights in case I ever see myself in a similar situation, because very chapter was a new lesson. If you love memoirs, "becoming" stories, and love highlighting quotes that sound very powerful, this book is for you. I've referenced glennon in many college essays, and my teachers LOVE her work.

Couldn’t Wait For It To End

I gave up on this book with 56 pages left. It seems that in every chapter of this book it is Glennon’s way or the highway. There is no room for error or a difference of opinion in her world.

Excellent! Highly Recommend for all women!

Glennon Doyle's voice is clear, vulnerable, and wise. She speaks about her life but in a way that speaks to so many experiences women go through. I absolutely loved this!

Solid!

I enjoyed this book! I do think that it’s very relatable in all forms. It’s got a little bit of everything to it. I took a lot away in terms of how I want to be as a parent and woman. I do think that this might resonate more with white women than POCs just because that’s the perspective it shares. Very solid read.
