Fighting Forward: Your Nitty-Gritty Guide to Beating the Lies That Hold You Back by Hannah Brencher

5.0

Hannah Brencher’s words are everything you thought you might need closing out 2020 and everything you didn’t even know you needed when kicking off 2021. Fighting Forward is the perfect anthem to kick off your New Year!

This is the kind of book where you bend the cover, dog ear the pages and read over, and over again. Hannah Brencher has delivered to us again an incredibly, authentic work that shows us how to stand up, do the work, “switch the script”, “lay the bricks”, and create the life we want. Her realness and insight are inspiring to read, but not in an unattainable way. She writes like she is sitting right next to you, grabbing coffee, and giving you that best friend advice you needed. Fighting Forward gives us a true message on how to create the life we’re meant to live and doesn’t sugar coat it. The way Hannah discusses Fear is so spot on, it’s as if she was inside all of our heads and hearts when we didn’t try that new class, didn’t apply for that position, didn’t try and talk to that new person at work, or didn’t pick up the phone and make that call. You’ll want to take notes, scribble in the margins, use her magic words for mantras and especially, create your own Fight Song after reading Hannah Brencher’s Fighting Forward. I highly recommend getting your hands on this empowering tool to “forge” the 2021 that is meant for you.
