I listened to this on audiobook. It was okay, but I think I would have enjoyed it better if I was a fan of the podcast as well. I found some stories more engrossing than others, as you do, but nothing really grabbed me (like the note that

The narrative and messages throughout the book remind me greatly of Brené Brown's dogmas (which makes a lot of sense, given that they reference Daring Greatly multiple times). Their stories of their own hurts, anxieties, and fuck-ups are told with what feels like a singular purpose: to help the reader in some way, be it by advising them against making decisions like their own, or by helping nudge someone that had fallen down the paths they too had stumbled down.
Though the book is definitely not a how-to on how to un-fuck your life, it is comforting to hear their experiences. Most notably, it is their success (as Georgia says in the conclusion, not just the hitting #1 on the podcast chart kind of success) and growth as individuals that instills in the book a note of hope, that life will get better if you can focus on making yourself the best person on the inside that you can be.
