Publisher's summary

You Are a Badass is the self-help audiobook for people who desperately want to improve their lives but don't want to get busted doing it.

In this refreshingly entertaining how-to guide, best-selling author and world-travelling success coach Jen Sincero serves up 27 bite-size chapters full of hilariously inspiring stories, sage advice, easy exercises, and the occasional swear word, helping you to:

  • Identify and change the self-sabotaging beliefs and behaviours that stop you from getting what you want.
  • Create a life you totally love. And create it now.
  • Make some damn money already. The kind you've never made before.

By the end of You Are a Badass, you'll understand why you are how you are, how to love what you can't change, how to change what you don't love and how to use The Force to kick some serious ass.

Super basic

Important: 1. If you've already read/listened some books about self-help, this is not for you. This is super basic, and you'll be wasting your money/credits on this.
2. If you don't like this california "gal" way of speaking ("you knoooow?", "I mean, likeeee", "So I was like ahhh, and he was likeee yuck") don't waste your money/credits on this.
The combination of these two things made it a really bad experience for me. Still, I made it through to give a complete review: may work for you if this is your first contact with self-help, maybe if it's the second, after "The monk who sold his Ferrari" and other super basic stuff. It is topical, almost childish, "Universe will give you what you want" kind of thing. If you're into that, go ahead. If not, run.

Some good advice, a lot of nonsense

This book is basically just the author telling you to believe in yourself, imagine the life you want and then going for it. I was somewhat on board until the author at one point the author advices people with depression to "change their stories" and stop being depressed...

Useless waste of time!

I couldn’t get through this book and finish it. After one hour I gave it. It had absolutely nothing to offer me. It was actually so bad it was insulting to my intelligence.

Great book and very relatable

I really enjoyed this book. The chapter on money was very enlightening for me. It’s very relatable with great insights shared. The content is relevant and I’ll definitely be reading it over and over again.

Wonderful!

What an amazing blast of motivation to our ears! I listened to this one after “You Are a Badass at Making Money” and I never wanted either to end!

Just go buy a car!!

A lot of manifestations in this book, it makes it quite painful and departs from a bit of reality. Going and buying an expensive car and manifesting the income later may not be the best financial advice for all.
