"Many books describe paths to success, but only Own It helps us to find our own. My friend Diane von Furstenberg gives us the biggest gift: faith in our uniqueness." (Gloria Steinem, writer, activist, and feminist organizer)

It is a true manifesto, a compilation of words that together will empower you to attain the satisfaction and serenity you have always wanted.

"The secret of life,” DVF says, is to “Own our imperfections. Own our vulnerability; it becomes our strength. Whatever the challenge is, own it. Owning it is the first step to everything.”

Really enjoyed this!

I really enjoyed this book and enjoyed Diane narrating this and it felt like having an older female friend or family member sitting you down and telling you about the ABC's of life. I really enjoyed the little tidbits of her life and experiences that she included in this book.

Soothing. simple with high impact

I enjoyed listening to Diane VF... as I biked through NYC traffic and while getting ready for bed. I found her pace and her voice calming.

Words are important and the stories between words enhanced them to land well onto my mind.

I felt elegance, non frivolous lessons... simply with high impact.

So good

I can’t even begin to say how good this is. I’m listening it to it again.

Fabuloso.

Darle la dimensión y significado correctoa las palabras te hace entender mejor tu entorno, rutina y el cause de la vida misma. Con un enfoque adecuado en el significado de las palabras que todos los días usamos se puede proyectar mejor los actos que realizamos a diario.

Wisdom with maturity

It was very pleasant and enriching to listen to this book. Sometimes I need someone to help me put my thoughts and feelings in words, and “Own it”brings clarity and wisdom, but also inspiration.
Thank you!

Alphabetically powerful

I love that the chapters are the alphabet, and she puts every word down that you need to hear in what seems like the exact moment you need it. She puts them in the definition that a lot of people can’t comprehend until they go through and experience, and I really needed this book 10/10 would recommend you literally anyone.

Good affirmations but not really a secret

Be overall theme of the book was pretty cool, but I just felt like a really didn’t have that much substance and it didn’t provide a secret anything. But still a positive and affirming short listen listen 

Short. Sweet. To the point.

I enjoyed this book. It’s one of those books you can pick up more than once and be reminded of things in life. The author was right by stating it is truly a book the entire family can enjoy.

Beautiful work Diane.
