Book Review: Remember ‘You Are A Badass’!

There are millions of self-help books out there, but none of them scream “self-help” more than “You Are A Badass.” Read that title again (and then again if you need to).

The full title of the book is “You Are A Badass: How To Stop Doubting Your Greatness And Start Living An Awesome Life.” Phew, what a mouth full, but also, WHAT A BOOK. (And I’m not just saying that because the cover of the book is my favorite color or the fact that the title tells me I’m a badass.) It is a great read for anyone, but even more so for those struggling with insecurities and doubting their true badass potential. 

“You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life” — $8.48

With over two million copies sold and written by Jen Sincero, a #1 New York Times bestselling author, speaker and success coach, it goes without saying that this book is quite phenomenal. Sincero combines her own life experiences, failures, and professional insight into 244 captivating pages to help us realize that we all have a special gift to give to this world. Just because we may not know it yet, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. I’ll go ahead and say now that Sincero’s writing style is unique, and it may not be for everyone, but I personally love the way she uses humor and a seemingly unprofessional tone to connect with her readers. It serves as a reminder that life shouldn’t always be taken too seriously.

This book will make you laugh, this book will motivate you, and this book will help you see yourself and the world in a much bigger and brighter light, if you let it. You shouldn’t expect to wake up an entirely different person after reading this book, but you should expect to feel motivated enough to make the necessary changes that can change your life forever.

I cannot express enough how much this book has helped me stop doubting myself, my life, and my full potential. I graduated college right smack dab in the middle of a pandemic, which I can tell you, made it feel like I never graduated college at all. I had no full-time job lined up at the time and long story short, I quickly started to doubt every inch of my existence. That was no way to live my life, so in an effort to help myself out of this crater of self-doubt, I got this book and just like every fairytale ever told, I lived happily ever after. But seriously, my life didn’t magically change overnight just because I read this book, but what it did do was give me the tools and motivation to truly stop doubting my greatness and start living an awesome life. Seriously, it’s $10 and 244 pages long. Do yourself a favor and go get this book.
