Excellent- More about On Being Human: A Memoir of Waking Up, Living Real, and Listening Hard
On Being Human by Jen is a beautiful and tender memoir that explores how a starved person grew into the exuberant woman she was meant to be by battling the demons within and winning. It is a celebration of happiness and self-realization over darkness and doubt, and an inspiration to live outside the box and reject the all-too-common belief of I am not enough.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 336 pages

Cheryl Strayed, author of the powerful and poignant memoir "Wild," has crafted a gritty and passionate tale that will captivate readers from beginning to end. In "On Being Human," Strayed delves into the touchstone stories she shares in her popular workshops, offering a profound and absorbing exploration of the journey of a starved person who emerges as the exuberant woman she was always meant to be.
The memoir is centered around Jen's personal experiences, and it is through her storytelling that she reveals the demons she battled within and the triumphs she achieved. Despite not initially intending to become a yoga teacher, Jen seized the opportunity to host her own retreats when offered, leaving her thirteen-year waitressing job behind despite crippling fears of her inexperience and potential.
After years of feeling trapped in a life that seemed devoid of hope, Jen embarked on a journey of self-healing. Through her care for others, she discovered the power to mend her own broken heart and reclaim her sense of self. She learned to fiercely listen, even though she was nearly deaf, to banish the shame associated with her body mass index, and to rebuild a family after the devastating loss of her father when she was just eight years old.
Through her journey, Jen conveys the experience that many of us are missing in our lives: the feeling of being heard and understood. She offers a message of hope and self-realization, celebrating happiness and triumph over darkness and doubt. Her complicated yet imperfectly perfect life path serves as an inspiration to live outside the box and reject the all-too-common belief that "I am not enough."
In "On Being Human," Jen empowers readers to find, accept, and embrace their own vulnerability, bravery, and humanness. She encourages them to live authentically and to embrace the fullness of their lives, recognizing that true happiness lies within.
"On Being Human" is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of self-discovery. It is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration, healing, and a deeper understanding of what it means to be human.
