Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"Amber Rae's very personal journey of moving from self limiting beliefs to her true self offers inspiring insights and lessons for anyone wanting to unfold their infinite potential." --Deepak Chopra
"The one advice book you should read--even if you don't like self-help."-- Bustle
"Amber Rae's book is a revelation. She's the Elizabeth Gilbert of her generation."--Stacy London
Let's be real. Life is filled with twists and turns, fears and doubts, messy and magical moments. Without a "rule book" for how to thrive in today's world, it leaves many of us feeling all the feels without having a clear sense of direction. Research even shows that the average adult spends 80% of their time with regret about the past or anxiety about the future.
That's where choosing wonder comes in. Whether you hate your work and are wondering WTF to do with your life, are building the dream but feel stifled by fear and doubt, or know there's more to life but don't know where to start, Choose Wonder Over Worry will guide you to face your fears and unlock your gifts--no matter what's standing in the way.
Inside, you'll learn:
-- How to overcome the habit we spend the majority of our time on: worrying
-- How to navigate fear, self-doubt, impostor syndrome, perfectionism, and all the feels
-- A simple tool for turning envy into inspiration
-- Practices for bouncing back from rejection and critics
-- What to do if you have too many ideas, but don't know how to choose
-- The difference between "getting ahead" and "coming alive" (and how to create success on your terms)
-- A fail-proof way to tame your inner critic and access your inner wisdom
No one is perfect. This journey is messy, and wherever you are--you are not alone. That's why Choose Wonder Over Worry is jam-packed with personal stories and vulnerable moments. It's like sitting down and sharing a glass of wine with your wise bestie, swapping I-can't-believe-I'm-about-to-share-this stories. Like how Amber went from raging in a bottomless hole of comparison, insecurity and doubt--to using that envy as inspiration to find her path.
Choose Wonder Over Worry shares the most important lesson of all: Don't die with your gifts still inside. There's a gift inside of you that deserves to see the light of day, and "choosing wonder over worry" is a mindset, practice, and compass to unlock the gift that only you can give.
Worry or Wonder: which will you choose?
Offers advice to move beyond the fears and doubts that prevent individuals from creating a life that reflects who they truly are and discusses how to rewrite the internal "worry" narratives that hide the best and truest self.
"WONDER is what we're born with. WORRY is what we learn. Now is the time to return to Wonder. Why do we hold back from pursuing what matters most? Why do we listen to the voice inside our head that tells us we're not good enough, smart enough, or talented enough? How can we move beyond the fear and doubt that prevents us from creating a life that reflects who we truly are? [This book] is your official invitation to face your fears, wake up to your truth, and get to the source of what's holding you back. Journey with inspirational speaker and artist Amber Rae as she connects you with your voices of Worry and Wonder, teaches you to listen to your emotions rather than silence them, and encourages you to seize your dreams. Through a thoughtful blend of vulnerability, soulfulness, and science, Amber Rae guides you in expressing the fullness of who you are and the gifts you're here to give. You don't have to be held back by WORRY when WONDER awaits you every moment of every day."--Dust jacket.
