confidence, body image, resilience, and fear and turns these into a journey of self-love and empowerment. What woman doesn’t need more self-love in their life? Lux Alani’s writing is quirky and warm, making these topics easily readable for even the shyest of women. This journey is about finding your true inner strength and giving yourself permission to be who you truly are. I will definitely be purchasing several copies of this book, one for myself (I can already see myself re-reading several sections) but also as gifts for some of the fabulous women in my life!

**I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher, Atria Books/Beyond Words Publishing, in exchange for my honest review**
