Generally loved it, especially hearing the author's words in her own voice, her experiences with anxiety and sexuality. Parts where she talked about her nonprofit's work seemed a little too self-promotional though.

I almost didn't read this because so many reviewers called the author selfish. Thankfully a friend recommended this book to me, so I gave it a shot. And I couldn't for the life of me understand why the "selfish" label was thrown around so much. I'm so sick and tired of how quickly people dog on female memoirists. If a man wrote this we would all be calling him funny and vulnerable. But a woman learning to live in authenticity is selfish? I read this and found that accusation ridiculous. This was a beautiful read that very much resonated with the inner work I've been doing lately. I can understand how some people feel it's a little preachy at times, but that didn't really bother me. This is a profound, funny, and relatable read. Don't listen to all of the people projecting their own issues onto the author and read it for yourself.
