Publisher's Summary

If you haven't heard of the Oola phenomenon yet, it's time to catch up. First, though, you need to understand what it is: Oola is that state of awesomeness you experience when your life is balanced and growing in all the key areas of health and well-being. It can be a noun or a verb. It can be a destination or a feeling. It can be as complex as a life growing and balanced in fitness, finance, family, field, faith, friends, and fun (the seven F's of Oola), or as simple as a sunset, a quiet book on the beach, or a special moment with a child. It is that place we all shoot for in life. That feeling we experience and that we celebrate in our successes along the way. In short, Oola is cool.

Since the first copy of the original book, Oola: Find balance in an Unbalanced World, rolled off the presses a few years ago, the Oola lifestyle has become a literal phenomenon - a dynamic movement. OolaPalooza live events have been routinely sold out since the day they were started, and the Oola message has been taken to countless cities across America and to every major city in the world via nearly 1,000,000 Oola fans on social media. In their 1970s VW Surf bus, authors Troy Amdahl and Dave Braun have taken their OolaDream tour on the road, from coast-to-coast, collecting dreams and goals for a balanced life from people who adorn their vehicle with colorful Oola stickers.

The OolaGuys know that women are the ultimate multitaskers. While a circus performer might spin seven plates in a single show, women spin seven plates - figuratively - every day. They not only juggle kids, family, and home life, they also juggle work responsibilities, customers and clients, make constant business decisions, handle professional events, and so many related activities that it's truly mind-boggling how much a woman can pack into a 24-hour day.

Female voice excruciating!

Amazing book! A must read! Please please narrate with someone else’s voice! The female narrating this book is way over the top, she needs to learn in a neutral voice, the high pitched tone is unbearable. I want to pick up the book and read it but it’s easier to listen.

Kind of pointless

I never really grasped the concept of the book. It was more like a bunch of short stories to me. And , nothing to do with the actual book, but I could NOT stand the female narrator's voice- sounded like she was trying too hard. I was overall disappointed with this book.

Not as uplifting as I would have hoped

This book reflects on REAL life stories by women. While I am aware that the aim is to be relatable I was not expecting the book to be such a downer for me.
The concepts of the 7 areas are important to learn but I think for me concentrating on HOW to help women get there rather than putting the focus on their stories.
This is the first Oola book I have read and I was pretty disappointed. I hope to ask around to see if the original is more uplifting and more motivational

Just stories

I did not finish this book because the first 11 chapters felt like nothing but stories. Stories are inspiring but need more guidance on how to achieve Oola. Do I have to attend a conference in order to know what those steps are? If so, I’ll take a pass.

Good

Enjoyed the experiences of finding balance. Also the coaching excerises, examples, readers voice was also enjoyable.

love this book! 💜

the book and content were fabulous! the narrators aren't my fav, I think because I wish it was the oolaguru and oolaseeker narrating!

Absolutely Love and Recommend

This book meet you wherever you are in life. It helps you become accountable to yourself and make the goals and dreams real.

Balance at its best

loved this book! it's everything. I need to motivate me & help balance out my life.

Super Motivational!

Loved listening and learning all about Oola! I got through the entire book in 2 days and I'm now ready to conquer any goals I set :)

Good book

Good book! Glad I got it. It makes a lot of sense to get all 7 key areas of life balanced and this book shows you what's out of balance.
