Synopsis

Live a Beautiful, Extraordinary Life.

Every woman longs to be truly beautiful. We’re simply fashioned that way. But many of us have never discovered or maybe we’ve merely forgotten what it means to be truly beautiful. We’ve lost sight of the women we were created and intended to be. We can’t remember what it means to dream big dreams and cherish the beauty of each day.

When we were young, we had hopes and dreams. Anything was possible. Then came real life. Now we find ourselves trapped in a comparison game, convinced that we don’t measure up. And when life doesn’t measure up, it’s easy to forget about dreaming altogether.

The pain of the past, disappointment with the present, and loss of hope in the future have stolen the joy and beauty from our lives.

But there is hope. Life can and should be a tremendously fabulous experience. Free to Be Beautiful guides you through eleven principles, each designed to help you discover - or rediscover - your inner beauty and true identity.

Join us on the journey to an extraordinary life. A life of becoming free…Free to Be Beautiful.

From the Inside Flap

Have you ever had days where you felt more like a commoner than royalty? Rather average or ordinary? We have. But as women, we long to feel beautiful, special, valued, and truly known. And when we are honest, we dream of a life that is extraordinary. A beautiful life that could make a difference.

In Free to Be Beautiful , you ll find that it is possible to have what you long for. Your dreams can be realized even in the midst of your everyday reality.

How do we know? We re living proof.

That s why we ve outlined eleven ordinary principles that will help you change the way you think about your life and show you how to live, being extraordinarily true to your dreams.

Does your dream seem impossible? Oh, the size doesn t matter. What matters is the fact that you have a dream in the first place. We ve learned that dreams aren't designed to just sit on the doorstep. When they arrive on our doorstep, we have to be ready and willing to open the door.

You are never too young, too old, too swamped, or too fearful to open the door to the dream of a beautiful life. You are tremendously fabulous and your life can be extraordinary.

Yes, life is still going to be life, and we could offer you a thousand options for living it. We could wrap them in different packages and paint them in colors that you would enjoy. But our greatest desire is that you discover the gift of you, the gift of being free.

This book is not about arriving. It s about becoming free to be beautiful.
