This book soothed, healed, educated and empowered me on so many levels. I often listen to the meditations before or as I fall asleep. She's proof that the feminine is not weak - but powerful in its softness and unwavering in its resolve. 

I first read this book after coming out of a shelter with four children. It reminded me of one very simple truth - only you can change your life.

I discovered Ariane's book, "The First 30 Days" at the library when I was looking for something to help me recover from a very shaming experience. The information in this book got me well on my way to not only healing, but empowering me.

I first heard of Brene' while in a shelter with four children in 2013. The therapist sat me down and had me listen to this TedTalk and I cried. 

Vulnerability is a superpower - a strength and a researcher was validating what I always knew. It was the first time I felt validated and heard.

I was referred to Dannielle after a toxic experience. One session with her got me back on track, began my healing process and was like five years of therapy. It is Dannielle who first witnessed that goddess energy within me. It is she who helped wake her up.

This book helped me find myself as I walked away from a life-long religion, a 15-year marriage and return to college at the age of 43. I reread her book again in 2019 and here I am.

This book was recommended to me by my former therapist when I was going through my divorce. It's a reminder to be in your bliss, trust life and know it's all going to work out for your benefit.

This is a recent discovery while shopping for a gift. I stood in the store reading, unable to put it down, crying my eyes out. The honesty, vulnerability, courage, strength and love which Rupi writes can't help but touch your soul.

I started working with Dorothy after an even which could have destroyed my life.  She worked with me, kept me congruent with my vision and I consider the midwife who helped me birth Waking Aphrodite. 

I found myself in the first page of this book. So relatable, enlightening, gentle yet direct. Filled with lots of wisdom and tools - I highly recommend it.
