About this title

Synopsis

Author Betsy Talbot's message is simple:

"Speak up. Be proud of who you are, what you know, and what you do. Help other women do the same. When you change your world for the better, you make it better for the rest of us."

Talbot wrote this book for the "Good Girls" – women who go along to get along, never rock the boat, and put their own desires last.
Sound familiar?

In this book, Talbot leads readers through a striptease of the emotional layers that can suffocate our innate confidence, preventing women from reaching their personal, professional, and societal goals.

In her signature style, she marries learning with action, using deeply personal stories to illustrate breakthroughs and then guiding the reader through exercises to reveal their own flawed and fabulous selves.

It is a bold book for women who want to live a life bigger than the one they have right now. And it is definitely a conversation starter at a book club!

About the Author

Betsy Talbot loves to write and start deep conversations with interesting people. She has now combined the two by writing about her best insights from these chats on the Married with Luggage website, many of which come from the most interesting person in her life, her husband Warren.

She lived an increasingly authentic and confident life until her decision in 2008 to sell everything she owned and travel the world with her husband Warren. Now she's full on naked with her confidence.

She is a curious person who reads voraciously, and she is a pro at meeting people and making friends. In fact, she considers herself somewhat of a matchmaker, which is a huge benefit to her entrepreneur friends and colleagues (not such a great deal for her single friends). She maintains a large network of friends all over the world, and her travels mean that network is constantly growing.

She is a late-in-life hippie and growing more bohemian by the minute.

When she's not traveling, reading, writing, friending, or matchmaking, she is probably discovering a local delicacy. Some of the most unusual: haggis, crickets, grasshoppers, blood sausage, fermented mare's milk, and frog legs.

Betsy's favorite destination so far has been Mongolia, despite the poor food choices.
