Untamed by Glennon Doyle
3.0
This is how you find yourself
Most of the points made in Untamed were agreeable, until I got to the questionable chapter about racism? It seems almost *too* forgiving towards white supremacists, stating that society shaped them to be this way. Whilst that may be true that their upbringing etc. would have a major influence, it is never okay. If it is something ingrained in them since childhood, then as they grow older and start to learn more then they should rebel against a reprehensible upbringing. Unlearn the behaviour that causes so much damage.
Am unsure if I need to re-read that part as surely that cannot be entirely what they mean, otherwise I would be rating this a lot lower, of course.
Other than yet, yes it is important for us to find our own inner peace, and learn to release our destructive emotions, to start living our best lives. Authenticity is key.
Also that people should be treated equally regardless of gender.
The author, Glennon Doyle, becomes the woman she was always meant to be after falling in love with a woman whilst she is married to her husband. It is interesting to hear how she navigated these emotions.
