Didn't See That Coming

Putting Life Back Together When Your World Falls Apart

De: Rachel Hollis

Narrado por: Rachel Hollis

The New York Times Bestseller

Fear. Grief. Loss. Betrayal. Rachel Hollis has felt all those things, and she knows you have too. Now, she takes you to the other side.

With her signature humor, heartfelt honesty, and intimate true-life stories, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hollis shows listeners how to seize difficult moments for the learning experiences they are and the value and growth they provide.

Rachel Hollis sees you. As the millions who listened to her #1 New York Times bestsellers Girl, Wash Your Face and Girl, Stop Apologizing, attend her RISE conferences and follow her on social media know, she also wants to see you transform.

When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life—the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job—transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain—you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.

To Rachel, a life well-lived is one of purpose, focused only on the essentials. This is a small book about big feelings: inspirational, aspirational, and an anchor that shows that darkness can co-exist with the beautiful.

Amazing

I ended this book in tears. For Rachel going through hard seasons and sharing her story with everyone and then harder for my current season. She is an amazingly beautiful talented soul. I 1000% recommend every book she writes. Especially this one if you’re going through a hard season or have just gone through one. She reminds you how amazing you are and will still be! ❤️

Loved it!!

I love all of Rachel’s books and while this was a different tone - she was still incredibly raw and real!!!

Life saving words to remember

The raw honesty that Rachel departs as she narrates through her own journey of grief and the other side. Getting back up. Whether you can identify with all or part of her journey , relating it to many types of pain and recovery is easy. There’s never a book that 100 percent is a mirror of what you’re going through, but I last saw her in Toronto before Covid, and her first two books were also impactful. I put off listening to this book for a while , but picked it up in the season it was meant for me to read.
I could think of a list of people I just wanted to mail this book to, but everyone is different and I can only hope my suggestion to listen or read this book reaches others who would really benefit from her talented way of writing. However, I like to listen to her rather than reading the words. Like her previous books I have often gone back and listened again.

Great book!

I love hearing Rachel’s take on life and it’s challenges. Always gaining new perspectives and skills from her books.

The book I didn’t know I needed

Real. Raw. Unfiltered. Inspiring. The words I needed to hear to help me move forward.

Always Authentic & Thoughtful, Rachel Hollis!

I love Rachel's story telling with valuable lessons and reminders how to live full out and step into the unknown no matter what our thoughts and feelings may say.

Rachael, you are a gift

Thank you

AMAZING

It 2 days to listen to this I could not stop! So many things in this book is stuff I have been going through and stuff from my past.
It had me writing so much down to build ways to overcome the problems I struggle with to move on.

Genuine authenticity! PERIOD!

I NEVER submit reviews. This will change that.
I grew up in the same denomination of church as the author, and have a similarly less-than perfect life story. This is why I am grateful for her.

So many faith based opinions that include judgement, are the byproduct of lacking self awareness and honesty. I’ve been on both sides of this.
I will forever cheer for the author, speaker, friend, service person, and human, that embraces their story, owns the part they’re responsible for, and uses said story to grow and inspire others to do the same.

Rachel Hollis has raised the standard for badassery amongst folks claiming to have a growth mindset, especially women.
If you find yourself judging her, spend some time looking at your own heart!

Loved it

Finished this book in a few hours and loved every second of it. Thank You
