Work through your fears by getting fierce! Fiercely You is a creative, playful approach to the serious problems that women face regarding confidence and risk taking. At a particularly low point in her life, bestselling author Jackie Huba serendipitously stumbled upon the wonderful world of drag queens and was inspired. They were supremely self-assured, utterly fearless, strong, powerful, and unabashedly and completely themselves. Jackie even became a drag queen herself: Lady Trinity. Drawing on her own experiences and interviews with the world's top drag queens, Huba and coauthor Shelly Kronbergs offers five Keys to Fierce that will help readers find the courage to ignore criticism and live the life they truly want to live every day—no wigs or stilettos required.
Change is inevitable. How we react to it is purely our choice. This collection of essays was mid-production when the phrase "shelter-in-place" became a common household conversation. As Fearless and Fabulous authors, the only choice was to keep moving forward and in doing so, inspire others to do the same! Our power lies within and among. Much like a single butterfly, each of the sixteen contributing authors has decided at some point in their life to make the personal choice to break through whatever is holding them back, reach for the light, and create a life worth living. Each has found the courage to go for what they want and make the changes necessary--not just in order to survive, but to thrive. Each year, during Fall migration, Monarch butterflies join together for their northward journey. The strength of the group--also known as a kaleidoscope--serves to protect and support each other along the way. Similarly, the power of the collective shines forth in the stories shared between the covers of this book. United in collaboration, these authors share their wisdom as their gift to you on your personal journey. Please accept our invitation to join our kaleidoscope as we fearlessly navigate, hand-in-hand, towards a fabulous new earth! "What do you want, Butterfly?" Let's go do that.
