“Both hilarious and moving. Their message is urgent—be you. Nothing is more important.” ~ Leslie Absher, Ms. Magazine

Brimming with relatable personal stories and actionable prompts, Dare to be Fabulous invites readers to boldly step into their own authenticity and joy. In this uplifting collection, women from all walks of life explore what it takes to find our own true north, sharing their experiences of successes, mishaps, and often hilarious surprises along the way. Their personal stories, and associated prompts, cover topics like:

• walking through inhibition or fear
• saying YES to joy and adventure
• ignoring/defying societal convention or what other people say
• doing the thing that calls to you
• shifting and finding a new perspective
• facing a physical challenge
• letting go of something (or someone)
• stepping into the unknown and trying something new
• . . . and much more

Consider the Dare to be Fabulous Journal Notebook as a writing companion for the prompts in the book. Together, they make a beautiful set.

“This book holds together the power women find when they are honest and courageous. Some of these stories moved me to tears, others made me believe in humanity again, many I could identify with. This book brought me tremendous joy and insight, and brought me back to believe in the human spirit.” ~ Julianna Margulies, multiple award-winning actor and author of Sunshine Girl: An Unexpected Life
