Thank you Netgalley for an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I like the concept behind this book. Break free from expectations and be your own person.

In the first few pages, we learn that one of the authors doesn't want children and broke free from societal expectations. She moved across the country on her own as a single woman. Then in the next couple of pages, the author is saying that themselves, their husband and son have a kick ass life. I'm interested in learning how the author changed their perspective so dramatically - I feel like that would be an interesting read.

I really enjoyed the chapter about communication styles and family expectations. I liked the insight into different communication styles in different families and the critical reflection of - are my feelings values and do I feel heard?

Overall, this book is well-written and an interesting guide for you to reflect about your own life and what you want.

4/5

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. I loved this book, it had the perfect amount of humor and I really felt seen. Society causes so much pressure on everyone and everything these days. I love how it breaks everything down to show us we don't need to follow what everyone is doing and it will be ok!

This is a to the point and funny motivational book. I love the humour and the fact that the goals are achievable. This book made me feel seen, I often feel overwhelmed and stuck because of the boxes society places on us
