Publisher's summary

Oola is not your typical self-help book. Oola is a "state of awesomeness." It's when your life is balanced and growing in the seven key areas of life (fitness, finance, family, field, faith, friends, and fun).

Oola is more like a collection of kick-butt anecdotes and sincere stories that just happen to have meaningful messages.

Co-authors Dave Braun (The OolaSeeker) and Troy Amdahl (The OolaGuru) have been there and done that.

Seven more reasons to listen to this book:

  • Learn the three simple steps to balance and grow your life in an unbalanced world.
  • Uncover what blocks you from the life of your dreams and what can get you there faster.
  • Find out what you can learn from a drunken Thai monkey, a black Ninja, and zebra-striped underwear.
  • Realize that no matter what you have done or have failed to do, you deserve a better life.
  • Become inspired to take the steps, reach your milestones, and achieve your OolaLife.
  • Discover the seven key areas of life you must balance and grow.
  • Unlock the secrets to taking your life to the next level.

Give this one a miss

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Sorry but not for me. It would need to be a completely different book.

Would you ever listen to anything by Dave Braun and Troy Amdahl again?

Not likely.

Would you be willing to try another one of the narrators’s performances?

Definatelly no.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

I wasn't really expecting much but the reviews were good so I gave a go. Only a few minutes in I relaised this was a "cash cow" type philosophy that I can certainly do without. The authors explain some of their personal failures and triumphs but there's really nothing of substance to be discovred here. You've heard similar stories before. The writing, the narration and overall content did not tick any boxes for me. I even found contradicting messages within. Honestly, I think you can do much better and look for content that has some empirical foundations. Two guys talking about their lives really didn't sound amazing. I am actually surprised that the reviews are so positive.

Any additional comments?

It sounds like it was recorded in a small room and so the audio quality is not on par. Also, the authors are not ideal narrators.I got the feeling that they were quite unfamiliar with the content, as it didn't seem to flow naturally. I will be getting a refund. Can't even finish this as it makes me cringe. It's a couple of enthusiastic Americans selling you thier story - and now they also sell essential oils I believe. Give it a miss. Also, to the non-religious out there, this book should come with a disclaimer that it has religious overtones throughout.

This book will change your life!

I read the book over 2 years ago and it literally changed my life! I was Oola Obsessed from that point on! You can't read it just once! So.. When it came out on Audible I had to get it. I love hearing the Oola Guys actually read their parts. It makes it so life like! You'll laugh, you'll cry and you'll see things you want to change in your life. This book doesn't just inspire you, it actually gives you step by step ways to make the changes! I love the #OolaGuys because they're real, they're relatable, they're relevant and they're reachable. They not only have been my greatest mentors and the most inspiring people I know, they've prayed for me through some of the hardest trials of my life. We all need this in our lives. So grab a copy today or download it on audible and come along for the #OolaRide 💚🚎

I couldn’t share this book with people fast enough! Really is an eye opener and makes you think about the life you are living and what path you are on, where it is leading you, and are you really happy with it.
