In 'Everything Is Figureoutable,' Marie Forleo shares her philosophy that any problem or obstacle can be overcome with the right mindset. The book is rooted in her childhood experiences with her mother, who embodied the idea that anything can be figured out with determination and hard work. Forleo provides guidance on how to deal with criticism, imposter syndrome, and failure, and emphasizes the importance of progress over perfection. She also offers strategies for overcoming common excuses such as lack of time and money, and encourages readers to take action to achieve their goals. The book is praised for its optimistic and practical approach to personal and professional growth[2][3][4].
In 'Untamed', Glennon Doyle shares her personal journey of breaking free from the societal and cultural expectations that had defined her life. The book is divided into three parts: 'Caged', 'Keys', and 'Free'. Doyle discusses her struggles with eating disorders, addiction, and her initial marriage, as well as her transformative experience of falling in love with Abby Wambach, a retired professional soccer player. The memoir explores themes of self-discovery, empowerment, and the importance of trusting one's own voice and intuition. Doyle reflects on her experiences with gender roles, mental health, and cultural conditioning, encouraging readers to reject the status quo and live more authentically. The book is both an intimate memoir and a galvanizing call to action, urging readers to set boundaries, honor their emotions, and embrace their truest selves[2][4][5].
Based on her inspiring 2018 commencement speech to Barnard College’s graduates, Abby Wambach delivers a powerful message for women to break free from old rules of leadership and create new paths. The book emphasizes the importance of transforming failure into wisdom, leading from any position, championing each other, and demanding what one deserves. Wambach advocates for a culture of honor, commitment, resilience, and sisterhood, urging women to unite and change the world together.
