Description
The universe is full of wonder and wisdom... and so are you.
It's a voyage of courage to show up with questions and an imagination. You find yourself wondering whether there's much more to life than you were told. But often, you find yourself so immersed in the chaotic pursuit of "success" as defined by society that you simply don't have time to experience life to the fullest.
Are you ready to live a more intentional life in which you consciously decide what is uniquely healthy for your mind, body, and soul, and let go of what is unhealthy? If you are, life will never be the same. The journey will be intense. It is not for the faint of heart. But as you learn how to access and trust the universal wisdom within your own heart, your life will begin to shift dramatically.
These book are not for everyone.They're for anyone ready to start questioning everything, and to simply say f*ck it--or whatever words you choose to use, when something in life no longer serves you. It will help you become more aware of the choices you make, and your responsibility as an architect of your life, not its victim.
F*ck the Bucket List helps you realize that this is a time to listen to the whispers of your soul. As the Universe insists: Letting go means making space for your wildest creations. Come discover the wonder of you.

Love. Love. Love. F*ck the Bucket List is such an enjoyable book. There was nothing revolutionary about the thought process for me, as I’ve been on this journey for a couple of years. But the positive, upbeat, and insightful conversational style is just a pleasure to read! It’s affirming and it’s provocative simultaneously. For those just starting out on a more personally meaningful journey, this book serves as inspiration to reimagine your happiness. It may very well serve as a vehicle for self-empowerment as you begin to deconstruct the framework you once accepted for your life. I suspect this book may resonate more with those 40-years-old and beyond, but there is something in it for the younger crowd as well. I look forward to more books by this author!

I loved this book. At first I was put off by the title, but I felt it was the right book to choose! I didn’t know what I was expecting, but I was engaged from start to finish. This sentence is key!
“There has to be something healthier that will make one whole and I am now ready to willing to open myself up to exploring and discovering it!”
How profound is that statement! Are you ready to being able to discover what is inside of yourself? This book has so much in it to take that I had to write down snippets and then go back and read that section again. I even read portions to my husband because so much pertains to what we are actually doing at this point in time of our own lives!
This book is truly a remarkable journey of self discovery at its truest form. The author doesn’t preach it, but just lays it out there and it’s up to you as the reader to take what words of guidance and apply it to your own lifestyle! Choices and decisions are up to you and only you! People forget that it’s their choice not another person but their own!
I definitely would recommend this book to anyone!
I received an advanced copy from NetGalley and these are my willingly given thoughts and opinions.

How frustrating is it to be told by all the different sources the things you must do to be successful in life? This book definitely does NOT do that. It instead takes an empathetic approach and gives bite size approaches and allows you to have kindness and patience with yourself. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Made me think. Loved this from start to finish. I will be recommending this to everyone I know. I did not want it to end.

“Fully experiencing life is the cornerstone of this adventure.” Love all the talk about labels, box’s, creatures of habit, and societies expectations. Nothing changes if nothing changes, but every day is a chance to start new.
Laura R, Reviewer
I did not expect to find myself agreeing with so much of what was written in this book but it was so insightful and made a lot of sense.
Perceptively written, this book makes you have a long hard look at yourself and the things you consider to be the definition of success in your life. I wont be following everything that is suggested but I think that was the entire point of the book-to take the parts that are relevant and that you can relate to and apply them in your life to make yourself happier and not to follow the crowd.
Absolutely worth the read!

I loved and hated this book. I loved the aspect of learning about yourself in all the things you do in actions and reactions. I love the way it’s explained that you really need to learn to say f*uck it sometimes. I didn’t like the whole concept that politics plays in the book. It’s not right in your face but it’s subtle in some areas. Overall this book is totally life changing for some and I would definitely recommend this to those going through changes in life where they are trying to figure out what’s important and what’s not for their own peace and sanity.
