This book has challenged me and given me new perspectives on so many different things, but the biggest impact it has had on me is making me realize just how much of my identity I’ve tried to hide or change over the years for fear of being rejected by others. Life changing read and as usual, Jen nailed it!
This book is an amazing read! So many points and explanations are through out the chapters and sections. Jen uses quotes and helps the reader to really dig in to the subject matter First review: So far, I have underlined 10 amazing statements that will definitely be going on my vision board and I'm only 3 chapters in. I love how the book is broken down into sections. I am currently reading through "Who I Am" & I cannot put it down.I am now halfway through the book having just finished the 'What
Love this book so far. It is full of questions to ask yourself to discover yourself. Jen provides great insights through the lens of her experiences.
This book is classic Jen, with much needed gut punches along the way! I appreciate her honesty, her wit and her ability to make us really examine who we are and how our understanding or acceptance of that affects how we live. Being in my mid 40s, I found several moments where I was thinking, "This is so me! But why do I hide it?" But I'm not sure I would have been ready to hear it any sooner. Highly recommend!!!!!
Jen Hatmaker knocks it out of the park again. This is a quick read but packs a punch. This is for all the women. All. The. Women. And men - pick it up, too. Jen works out her passions on paper. She lays out her advice, beliefs, struggles, victories, and urges all of us to do the same in our own lives to move toward wholeness and freedom and enthusiasm and authenticity through embracing what is true. True about us collectively and as individuals. Her words almost literally reach out of the book t...
Another Hatmaker home run! Jen dives deep into some topics that can be incredibly difficult for women today, and explores the dichotomy between who we're told we should be, and who we feel we really are or want to be. But she does it in her typical homey, big-sister/best friend kind of voice, never making us feel wrong or lesser, pushing just enough to inspire, and baring her own hard truths in the process. This is the book we women, all women, need, right now.
I had the pleasure of reading an advanced copy of this fabulous book, provided to me by the publisher.The title of this book epitomizes how I felt when I'd finished reading it. In a deviation from the more cathartic, meditative tone of For the Love, Jen Hatmaker's newest novel is an inspirational tour de force, boldly proclaiming to every reader that she is worthy, stronger than she believes, and capable of tackling any challenge, ambition, or opportunity she faces. Fierce, Free, and Full of Fir...
There's something almost uncommonly courageous about Jen Hatmaker's new book "Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire: The Guide to Being Glorious You" that dwells underneath the foundation of Hatmaker's usual weaving together of wry humor, heartfelt storytelling, and encouraging, almost cheerleader-like affirmations for herself and for her readers. "Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire" brings us a feistier Jen Hatmaker who manages to bring on the feisty without compromising many of the qualities that have ma...
I literally WHOOPED out loud when I got this ARC. I ditched my other books, filled the bathtub to the brim with hot water and lost myself in Jen Hatmaker's most recent thoughts. At the conclusion of the book, she tells the reader that "some of these chapters hit you squarely between the eyes and others didn't apply at all." In some ways, I felt this but....its Jen Hatmaker.....so all of it was thought provoking, hilarious and a contemporary love letter to the modern woman. She essentially writes...
ALL. THE. STARS. This is the book we need right now, to erase all the BS of what it “means to be a Christian woman” and to start living into our true purpose and wholeness with which we were created. I love Jen’s humor and honesty, but she also nails us with some good truth here. I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for a review, but I had also already preordered it before I applied to be on the launch team. It was everything I expected from Jen and more. I loved it!!
This is Jen Hatmaker's best book yet. And it's the best book I've ever read that deals with empowering women to be themselves and make their lives what they want. Not a fan of Rachel Hollis but want to be empowered to be your best you? Look no further than "Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire" (Oxford Comma included). My TLDR is that this book is now one of my all-time favorites, and I'm going to be recommending it to everyone that I meet, so look out, world. In all seriousness though, I felt like Je...
Advanced Reader's Copy"We do not need you to be like your neighbor; we already have her. We need you, not for what you do but who you are. Please be her. Please do not shrink or twist or lie or buckle."I loved Jen's new book. She herself says that she doesn't think every chapter will be for every person and that was true for me as well. But the chapters that hit you hard? Good gracious, they will hit hard. Thankful for her courage in a space that doesn't always reward it.
I absolutely loved this book. I feel like it pulls all the things that I have been working on together, and based on the reviews from other readers, I'm not alone in this. Jen does a great job of bringing in quotes from experts all throughout the book, which gives the book some added depth as other voices are heard. She pulls from "IDEO's Culture of Helping" that many minds make bright work, and Jen makes that clear as the expertise she employs along with her voice allow us to gain the best ther...
Jen is gifted when it comes to words. She has captured my heart with previous books of hers and I was excited to read her latest, Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire. She describes and empathizes with situations that everyone in America can relate to. She has had difficult situations to overcome. As she worked to overcome these issues, she learned a lot about herself . She is taking that learning and paying it forward to her readers. I highly recommend this book to anyone.
If you’ve followed Jen for awhile like I have and wished she would come give you a pep talk- this is it. She delivers hard truths with a firm yet gentle approach. She is authentic and approachable, vulnerable and loving. She pulls back the curtain and allows the reader to see her heart. This is well written and every woman will find an aspect that speaks to her. My thanks to the publisher for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review.
Jen Hatmaker has hit the nail on the head with this book. I am only a few chapters in and I can see that this book is life changing. It is a book that will be on my "Changed my Life" shelf. Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire successfully explores the following areas: who I am, what I need, what I want, what I believe, and how I connect.
Jen Hatmaker brings the fire in this one- it is laugh out loud funny, inspiring, brutally honest, and full of real, helpful advice on being authentic.
I am a forever fan girl of Jen Hatmaker but I was truly skeptical of the long title. I always wonder why books have to over sell with a lengthy title. Nonetheless, of course I was going to read my girl's newest book! I was wrong as the title isn't long enough because there are not enough words to express how empowered I am by these words. It is so smart with actual research and testimony. This book makes me question things I ignorantly accepted, made me uncomfortable at times and validated what
"We are free to exist on this planet in the ways we flourish, because there is an abundance of everything: joy, talent, love, dreams, hope, goodness, triumph, creativity, delight... Someone else's space does not diminish yours." Jen is the friend and pastor so many of us are aching for. I could have read this in one sitting, but instead I savored each chapter, letting Jen's ministry wash over me. I cried the whole way through and would have had to highlight every page to emphasize the parts I fo...
