Bare Naked in Public

Sometimes you have to risk baring it all.

Christine Amoroso did everything right to achieve the perfect life. Falling for a sandy-haired surfer and landing pregnant at seventeen, she knew the "right" thing to do. She could have it all, even if in the "wrong" order: beautiful children, a good marriage, and approval from those around her. Until it all fell apart.

Ever the overachiever, she continued to take on too much, finishing college with two kids in tow. But as her responsibility grew, so did her resentment. A stressed-out young mom, an inattentive husband, and the attention of another man made the perfect recipe for disaster. Hard work and responsible decisions had not guaranteed a happy life or lasting love. She had failed, and now she floundered as she tried to find a fresh start. She turned inward for answers rather than seeking external validation.

After a few missteps, she slowly learned her worth couldn't come from a list of accolades, achievements, or some guy. Her story is an earnest and humorous account of what it's like to be a modern American woman trying to have it all and the dangers of losing oneself in the process.

Bare Naked in Public is a must-listen-to memoir for burnt-out overachievers seeking answers about their worth while finally forgiving their past.

Great listen!

I loved the honesty of this story and kept rooting for Christine. Throughout her life she was resilient. I especially liked to “see” Italy through her eyes.
