Untamed Paperback – International Edition, March 12, 2020

Really good book

During the past several months, four of my female clients read "Untamed" and highly recommended it to me. As their therapist, It is important to me to connect with books which not only resonate with my clients but which also advance their wellbeing. After reading "Untamed," my clients shared their feelings with me: "I'm not alone. I always felt that something was wrong with me...I felt I didn't fit into what was expected of me... and I felt it was my fault. It feels so good to know that Glennon felt that way too...and she changed herself and her life."Because I had time this last weekend, I ordered the book and couldn't put it down. As I work to help my clients step out of their "cages" - whether they find themselves in abusive relationships, or believing their self-shaming life messages, or contorting themselves to fit into what our culture, society, and social norms tell them to be- I found Glennon's messages to be a powerful force of encouragement, validation, and affirmation. Women need to know they are not alone - that others suffer too and that others "do hard things" to change their lives.Thank you, Glennon, for this beautiful, inspirational, and deeply needed book.Holli Kenley, MA, LMFT and author "Daughters Betrayed By Their Mothers: Moving From Brokenness To Wholeness" and "Breaking Through Betrayal: And Recovering The Peace Within"

good read and author just not for me.. but highly advertised

This book!! These words! These truths! This love! I devoured this book and wanted it to have double the amount of pages. The raw honesty of Glennon Doyle is so refreshing and real. She doesn’t sugarcoat or try and make herself look good. She shows up for herself, her family and her readers. I thank God she found Abby. One of the mist profound things that I’ve heard was Glennon speaking on a podcast, referring to the first time they met. A version of it is in the book as well, but on the podcast she said words to the effect - my soul saw its mate from across the room and said “There she is”. I’ve told the story to everyone ever since. How incredible for your soul to meet its mate and just know. I saw someone comment on a FB post where another author’s divorce was discussed and she mentioned that the cause was probably the fact that she was reading this ‘dangerous’ book. If it helped her find her knowing and choose herself, I’d say NOT reading this book would be dangerous! I loved everything about this!!

If you miss, or perhaps have never experienced the profound love you feel when someone truly sees you....this book is for you. You know that your life is not being lived...fully, optimally, with GUSTO?! This book sees you, it knows what you need...Glennon Doyle can change your life!

Insightful

Love this book, it has changed my outlook on being a woman/wife!

Being someone that loses interest in things easily when this book arrived in litterly wanted to skip work to binge read it. Sooooo good
