'This book will shake your brain and make your soul scream. I am so ready for myself after reading this book!' Adele

'Untamed will liberate women - emotionally, spiritually, and physically. It is phenomenal.' Elizabeth Gilbert, author of City of Girls and Eat Pray Love

Who were you before the world told you who to be?

Part inspiration, part memoir, Untamed explores the joy and peace we discover when we stop striving to meet the expectations of the world, and instead dare to listen to and trust in the voice deep inside us. From the beloved New York Times bestselling author, speaker and activist Glennon Doyle.

*****

For many years, Glennon Doyle denied her discontent. Then, while speaking at a conference, she looked at a woman across the room and fell instantly in love. Three words flooded her mind: There. She. Is. At first, Glennon assumed these words came to her from on high but soon she realised they had come to her from within. This was the voice she had buried beneath decades of numbing addictions and social conditioning. Glennon decided to let go of the world's expectations of her and reclaim her true untamed self.

Soulful and uproarious, forceful and tender, Untamed is both an intimate memoir and a galvanising wake-up call. It is the story of how one woman learned that a responsible mother is not one who slowly dies for her children, but one who shows them how to fully live. It is also the story of how each of us can begin to trust ourselves enough to set boundaries, make peace with our bodies, honour our anger and heartbreak, and unleash our truest, wildest instincts.

Untamed shows us how to be brave. And, as Glennon insists, 'The braver we are, the luckier we get.'

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm Not Alone
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021

During the past several months, four of my female clients read "Untamed" and highly recommended it to me. As their therapist, It is important to me to connect with books which not only resonate with my clients but which also advance their wellbeing. After reading "Untamed," my clients shared their feelings with me: "I'm not alone. I always felt that something was wrong with me...I felt I didn't fit into what was expected of me... and I felt it was my fault. It feels so good to know that Glennon felt that way too...and she changed herself and her life."
Because I had time this last weekend, I ordered the book and couldn't put it down. As I work to help my clients step out of their "cages" - whether they find themselves in abusive relationships, or believing their self-shaming life messages, or contorting themselves to fit into what our culture, society, and social norms tell them to be- I found Glennon's messages to be a powerful force of encouragement, validation, and affirmation. Women need to know they are not alone - that others suffer too and that others "do hard things" to change their lives.
Thank you, Glennon, for this beautiful, inspirational, and deeply needed book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just read the book already!!

This book!! These words! These truths! This love! I devoured this book and wanted it to have double the amount of pages. The raw honesty of Glennon Doyle is so refreshing and real. She doesn’t sugarcoat or try and make herself look good. She shows up for herself, her family and her readers. I thank God she found Abby. One of the mist profound things that I’ve heard was Glennon speaking on a podcast, referring to the first time they met. A version of it is in the book as well, but on the podcast she said words to the effect - my soul saw its mate from across the room and said “There she is”. I’ve told the story to everyone ever since. How incredible for your soul to meet its mate and just know. I saw someone comment on a FB post where another author’s divorce was discussed and she mentioned that the cause was probably the fact that she was reading this ‘dangerous’ book. If it helped her find her knowing and choose herself, I’d say NOT reading this book would be dangerous! I loved everything about this!!

Just wow... the most beautiful and heartbreaking book I’ve read all year. Thought provoking and offering some serious perspective of things I most often bury (the Ache). Reading this at the end of 2020, well, the timing couldn’t be more perfect, will take this with me into 2021, letting it set the standard for a life I want to live differently. Will buy this for my daughter and recommend it to every woman I know.

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2023

This may be a good book for others, but it wasn’t what I was looking for. Although the author had some words of wisdom, the book is more of a coming out story in my opinion, as opposed to inspirational. If you have enjoyed other books by this author you may like this, just wasn’t for me.

It’s the kind of book that stops you in your tracks and makes you evaluate life. She comes from a perspective of openness and compassion and love. So much value in these words. Worth your time and energy to read, and maybe even reread!

Un libro de reflexión y crecimiento personal. No te dice cómo pensar, sino qué pensar. De manera sutil te cuestiona muchos detalles del por qué haces lo que haces. Habla de condicionamiento social, trauma, hábitos, dogmas, duelo, resiliencia, perseverancia y sobre todo de ser fiel a ti mismo y cómo eso es la mejor versión de ti.

This book came to my life just at the right time. Glennon could articulate what I was feeling, but couldn't quite put words to it. This book has been immensely helpful in giving me permission not to follow the social constructs that are laid out for women and to question the status quo. It will make you happier by making you look at the world differently.
