Discover the raw, startling truth of self-discovery in Glennon Doyle's transformative memoir, Untamed. This Number 1 Sunday Times bestseller and a selected pick for Reese Witherspoon's Book Club invites readers into a journey of breaking free from societal constraints to embrace one's true essence. Without succumbing to the expectations and pressures of the world, Doyle offers a liberating path to courage and authenticity.

In Untamed, Glennon Doyle explores a life lived by following the voices of others, detailing her struggle with personal discontent and the pivotal moment that shattered her controlled existence. While speaking at a conference, Doyle glanced across the room and instantly fell in love, leading to a profound realisation embodied in the words, "There. She. Is." This encounter prompted Doyle to listen to her buried inner voice, stifled by years of societal conditioning and personal numbness.

Doyle's story is a powerful and insightful anecdote demonstrating how she chose to reject the world's expectations and embrace her true, untamed self. This decision profoundly impacted her life, offering her the courage to transform into the woman she was destined to be. Untamed is both an intimate memoir and a compelling call to arms, guiding readers to trust their deepest instincts and embrace their fullest potential.

With soul-stirring and humorous reflections, Doyle's narrative showcases her evolution from someone seeking approval to someone living for herself and her happiness. She redefines what it means to be a responsible mother, a lover, and a fulfilled human being, showing that true responsibility is teaching others to live fully and fearlessly.

Untamed empowers its readers, especially women, to set their boundaries, find peace within their bodies, honour their emotions, and tap into their wild instincts. It is an encouragement to live boldly and authentically, celebrating the strength that comes from within. Glennon Doyle's powerful voice insists that "The braver we are, the luckier we get," underpinning her message of personal liberation and universal empowerment.

Praised by readers and renowned figures, this book has made waves across the globe. Adele praises it, saying, "This book will shake your brain and make your soul scream. I am so ready for myself after reading this book!" Meanwhile, Elizabeth Gilbert, bestselling author of City of Girls and Eat Pray Love, describes Untamed as a phenomenal force that will liberate women emotionally, spiritually, and physically.

Reese Witherspoon, in selecting Untamed for her book club, notes, "Packed with incredible insight about what it means to be a woman today...I swear I highlighted something in EVERY chapter." This reflects the profound impact and the invaluable insights Doyle offers to anyone embarking on their journey toward self-discovery and self-love.

Embark on an enlightening adventure through Untamed and emerge renewed, with the courage to live your bravest and most authentic life.
