Like She Owns the Place

Give Yourself the Gift of Confidence and Ignite Your Inner Magic

De: Cara Alwill

Narrado por: Cara Alwill

Can you imagine what life would be like if you could accept failure, cellulite, wrinkles, imperfection, screw-ups, and vulnerability?

I’ll tell you what would happen: you would finally take that weight off your shoulders and build unshakeable, sustainable confidence. The truth is that confidence isn’t about living up to anyone’s expectations—it’s about affirming, every day, that you’re an effing boss. It’s not the result of being skinny, making a six figure salary, finding your dream partner, or drinking a green juice every day. It requires patience, dedication, forgiveness, bravery, and an incredible amount of self-compassion.

You’ve probably read that “confidence is a choice,” and while that’s true, it’s more accurate to say that confidence is a series of repeated choices to accept yourself. To choose pride over insecurity. And to fearlessly show up in the world as the truest expression of yourself.

It took me a long time to overcome all the BS. It took me a longer time to develop a rock-solid sense of inner-peace and become intimate with my intuition. To achieve real confidence that lasted longer than a sugar rush.

My goal with this book is to share with you how I have arrived here, how I’ve helped my clients arrive here, and hopefully save you years of pain, shame, and uncertainty. Because, girl, I know how rocky this road can be. I’m going to show you how to block out all the noise around you, and how to free yourself from the opinions and judgment of others. I’m going to teach you how to trust your gut, reclaim your life, and rock what you’ve got.

I’m going to show you how to own the place.

Confidence Boosting!

I did not think I’d enjoy this book at first, because I felt like I’d exhausted my need for girl power, self love books. But I am glad I stuck it out. It improved my mood everyday after listening to it, and made me feel empowered. Her voice is easy to listen to, and it isn’t too long or self-indulgent. Good read for young women in search of a little boost

So inspiring!

Listen to this book if you need a little boost in life or if you just want to start your day right. So awesome and inspiration. Thank you for such a great listen!!

sure.

Motivation sass and loving inspiration

I started listening to Cara’s podcast and fell in love instantly...it only made sense that I would end up listening to her books. I appreciate her honesty, sass, and that she’s a girls girl - cheering her sister’s on. Loved playing this throughout the day to keep me focused and connected to my best self!

I love Cara, and this is my favorite work of hers to date. Inspiring and empowering, this is one I will listen to [thrice] the next time I need a reality check from a friend. Her workbooks and sweatshirt are on point as well.

excellent read!

I must say this was an excellent read and really gets you thinking! thank you

4.5

I love when authors narrate their own books because nobody knows what words to emphasize more than the authors themselves since they know their own sass! So, 5 stars to the narration.

As far as the content, well, there were moments where I found myself saying “YASSSS, QUEEEENNN! Preach it!” or even nodding, agreeing all excitedly. There were parts that I absolutely LOVED this book. But just as well, there were parts where I felt like “I have heard this before” in other self-development books. These weren’t that many, but it happened more than once.

However, I do feel like women everywhere, especially those that are people-pleasers (like me!) need this!

4.5 stars to the book
5 stars the narration
