Glennon Doyle – författare

"Otämjbar kommer att befria kvinnor emotionellt, spirituellt och kroppsligt. Det är en fenomenal bok."  ELIZABETH GILBERT (Eat, pray, love)  

Otämjbar är en sinnlig, upprorisk och kärleksfull bok. Både en självutlämnande memoar och en obeveklig väckarklocka. Det är berättelsen om hur en kvinna kom till insikt om att en ansvarsfull mamma inte är någon som långsamt går mot döden för sina barn, utan en som visar dem hur man lever sitt liv fullt ut. Det är historien om att navigera sig fram efter en skilsmässa, bilda en ny familj och insikten om att en familjs väl och ve inte beror på dess struktur utan på varje familjemedlems förmåga att vara sig själv inför de andra. Det är också en beskrivning om hur vi alla kan börja lita på oss själva tillräckligt mycket för att våga sätta gränser och acceptera våra kroppar, vara stolta över vår ilska och omfamna våra krossade hjärtan och förlösa våra sannaste, vildaste instinkter så att vi blir de kvinnor som äntligen kan se oss själva i spegeln och säga: Där är Hon.   

Otämjbar lär oss att vara modiga. Som Glennon Doyle själv envist brukar säga: Ju modigare vi är, desto lyckligare blir vi.

Med förord skrivet av Alexandra Pascalidou.

"Detta är en pion bland tistlar, en självlysande discokula i ett strömlöst mörker och en väns hand när livet möter motvind. Jag omfamnas, omskakas och känner mig omåttligt överväldigad. Vad mer kan man önska av en bok i detta nu?" @carolinesbokhylla

With Untamed, Glennon Doyle-writer, activist, and "patron saint of female empowerment" (People)-ignited a movement. Untamed has been described as "a wake-up call" (Tracee Ellis Ross), "an anthem for women today" (Kristen Bell), and a book that "will shake your brain and make your soul scream" (Adele). Glennon now offers a new way of journaling, one that reveals how we can stop striving to meet others' expectations-because when we finally learn that satisfying the world is impossible, we quit pleasing and start living. Whether or not you have read Untamed, this journal leads you to rediscover, and begin to trust, your own inner-voice. Full of thought-provoking exercises, beloved quotations from Untamed, compelling illustrations, playful and meditative coloring pages, and an original introduction, in Get Untamed: The Journal, Glennon guides us through the process of examining the aspects of our lives that can make us feel caged. This revolutionary method for uprooting culturally-constructed ideas shows us how to discover for ourselves what we want to keep and what we'll let burn so that we can build lives by design instead of default. A one-of-a-kind journal experience, Get Untamed proves Glennon's philosophy that "imagination is not where we go to escape reality, but where we go to remember it."

How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can’t I be happy? Am I doing this right?The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers she’s spent her life learning. She wonders: I’m almost fifty years old. I’ve overcome a hell of a lot. Why do I wake up every day having forgotten everything I know?Glennon’s compasses are her sister, Amanda, and her wife, Abby. Recently, in the span of a single year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Abby’s beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they turned toward the only thing that’s ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people.They asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world’s most brilliant wayfinders: As you’ve traveled these roads —marriage, parenting, work, recovery, heartbreak, aging, new beginnings—have you collected any wisdom that might help us find our way?As Glennon, Abby, and Amanda wrote down every life-saving answer, they discovered two things:

2 miljon sålda ex och över 45 veckor på New York Times bästsäljarlista!OTÄMJBAR är en sinnlig, upprorisk och kärleksfull bok. Både en självutlämnande memoar och en obeveklig väckarklocka. Det är berättelsen om hur en kvinna kom till insikt om att en ansvarsfull mamma inte är någon som långsamt går mot döden för sina barn, utan en som visar dem hur man lever sitt liv fullt ut. Det är historien om att navigera sig fram efter en skilsmässa, bilda en ny familj och insikten om att en familjs väl och ve inte beror på dess struktur utan på varje familjemedlems förmåga att vara sig själv inför de andra. Det är också en beskrivning om hur vi alla kan börja lita på oss själva tillräckligt mycket för att våga sätta gränser och acceptera våra kroppar, vara stolta över vår ilska och omfamna våra krossade hjärtan och förlösa våra sannaste, vildaste instinkter så att vi blir de kvinnor som äntligen kan se oss själva i spegeln och säga: Där är Hon.  

OTÄMJBAR lär oss att vara modiga.  

Som Glennon Doyle själv envist brukar säga: Ju modigare vi är, desto lyckligare blir vi. Lås upp dörren till dina inre rum. Vem skulle du vara om du inte begränsade dig själv? Om du inte ägnade lika mycket tid åt att behaga andra? Om du fick bestämma fullt ut över ditt eget liv? Du är inte galen om du längtar efter något mer, något annat.
