Look, Feel & Age Fabulous: For Intrepid Women: An Invigorating Perspective on Self-Confidence, Fabulosity, And Other Midlife Antics

This is such an empowering book. The author presents a way to “reinvent” yourself into being a more fabulous version of who you already are. Drewell assumes you are fabulous already, but can be more fabulous. This book helps you to see that there are no barriers to being fabulous except your self-limiting beliefs. She models fabulous through her life stories. The book is well written and completely accessible. It/she makes you feel inspired by who you are rather than overwhelming you with ways to make yourself “better”. She gives a set of questions that everyone should ask themselves. One of the 14 questions is: “Who is the boldest, most confident, most expansive version of you?” I highly recommend this uplifting, inspiring read.

I really enjoyed this uplifting and honest account of the Author's beginnings, and reflections into her past, and what was to be the beginning of her transformation into Fabulous. As I read the book it was like looking into a mirror and seeing myself in many of her revelations. The book is written in such a way it is easy to refer to, yet still has depth and is telling us to move with the times and don't get stuck in a rut. Make the most of this life and make it a Fabulous one ! Anne

Wow! What a ride! I really enjoyed this book and love the whole concept of a ‘fabosphere’ (aka a world of fabulousness) and embracing life with joy and happiness. Mid-life and menopause can really suck the life out of you and be such a difficult time for many woman, but this book made me want to embrace my own fabulocity and live life (and love life) to the absolute fullest. Read it and you’ll want to be totally fabulous forever!

An easy, honest and straightforward read. How fantastic it is for one fabulous woman to share positivity & at the same time, helping me remember how damn fabulous I am! Great book!!

Uplifting to read, full of goodness and love the personal honesty of the writing. Our twenty something year old daughters have also been dipping in and found it very relevant for their current life journeys. Well done Yolanda we’re all very proud of you.

Love this book!! It’s fun, uplifting, and full of positivity … like a refresh button that picks you up whenever you feel jaded. Great to have on the shelf whenever you need to feel more fabulous !!!

Have you got FIFI? If you aren't sure, you need to read this book. You will find your inspiring path to Fabulous and you will be the most interesting woman in any room. The formula is really easy on what you can do to find what makes you fabulous. Because I bet you are and if you need help to believe it, this is the book you need on your reading list. This is a very inspiring and fun read. Highly recommend.

We all deserve to be fabulous - let's spread it far and wide!

This book was such a joy to read ! Light and uplifting, encouraging and easy to read, no fix-it exercises or complicated methods to learn and follow (and feel like a failure when you haven’t managed to implement it all), but rather an invitation to celebrate who we are at heart. After all, noone can deny that we ARE in fact each unique, and Yolanda shows that the justification for our tendency to (think we should) adhere to certain norms simply doesn’t add up.The cool thing about this book compared to typical “self-help” books is that everything Yolanda proposes is FUN and feels good, which makes it a self-propelling approach. You just want to do more of it ! What a revelation that there’s nothing wrong with that ha! And everyone around you benefits. Win win. These are principles you can come back to over and over again any time of day, whatever you are doing, in myriad ways.Furthermore, ANY AGE woman can benefit from this book. The earlier the better ! The author has not attempted to specifically address every kind of woman at every stage of life in every situation. Her story is candid and personal and touching, which makes it utterly authentic and persuasive. I do not envy our daughters the daunting crossroads and pressures they face early on in adult life these days. They deserve to be reminded that fabulosity is there for them too !I immediately ordered copies of this book for several (middle-aged) loved ones and the story soon reached me that two university students were talking about the book because of their mothers !Yolanda shatters the myth, but commonly-held mindset, that we need someone’s permission to shine, simply for the joy of it. She does not pretend that the stuff we struggle with isn’t there, but rather urges us to be gentle with it and with ourselves. Once that theme has had enough loving space, we can let it go and look forward with excitement to our next dose of fabulosity, even if it’s just a long hot shower.I DO recommend listening to her quick intro video, as her voice and laugh and lovely accent also shine through in the way she wrote the book.

It was so much fun to read the book! Yolanda supports you in thinking outside the box and try new things, thoughts, outfits and actions. Don't stick with your old mindset, when it does not fit anymore or brings you joy. While reading you can feel your aliveness sparkling! Go on a joyful journey with this book and invent yourself in a way that makes you feel FABULOUS ;-)

This book helps you to realize that it is high time to own your life story and stop making excuses. I found very interesting how the author invites us to shatter societal expectations and instead, seek a curious self-attitude towards life. The idea of adopting “fabulous” on your daily life is a great way to keep your eyes open to everything that life may have awaiting you, if you are open to it and are willing to not conform to societal norms. I fully recommend this book to anyone ready to break free from age-related stereotypes and willing to rediscover their life.

Great book, would recommend it. Inspiring stories, a new way of looking at the second half of your life.

I wasn’t sure about this book when I read the title. It seemed silly to coin a phrase that NJ Housewives use. But Yolanda does a wonderful job explaining what Fabulosity is and how to live the life. She is thorough and well researched and her suggestions are doable. I will be recommending this book to my friends! Bravo!
