When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life—the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job—transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel Hollis writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain—you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.

First, though, you need to understand what it is: Oola is that state of awesomeness you experience when your life is balanced and growing in all the key areas of health and well-being. It can be a noun or a verb. It can be a destination or a feeling. It can be as complex as a life growing and balanced in fitness, finance, family, field, faith, friends, and fun (the seven F's of Oola), or as simple as a sunset.

Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again - our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness and our unconscious beliefs and fears.

Summary
Number one New York Times best seller - more than three million copies sold.
Do you ever suspect that everyone else has life figured out and you don’t have a clue? If so, Rachel Hollis has something to tell you: that’s a lie.
If you have ever said any of these things to yourself...something else will make me happy; I’m not a good mom; I will never get past this; I am defined by my weight; I should be further along by now...then you could benefit from the unflinching faith and rock-hard tenacity Rachel Hollis has in store for you. In this challenging but conversational audiobook, Rachel exposes the 20 lies and misconceptions that too often hold us back from living joyfully and productively, lies we’ve told ourselves so often we don’t even hear them anymore.
Rachel is real and talks about real issues. More than that, she reveals the specific practical strategies that helped her move past them. In the process, she encourages, entertains, and even kicks a little butt, all to convince you to do whatever it takes to get real and become the joyous, confident woman you were meant to be. Because you really can live with passion and hustle - and give yourself grace without giving up.

Girl, Wash Your Face has truly changed my life!
Girl, Wash Your Face has changed my life, yes I realise how dramatic that sounds. But it's true! I'm 37 and feel like I've just learnt the skills I need to make my life the best it can possibly be, thanks to this book.
I have an illness that leaves me stuck in bed, in pain, almost every day. I find audiobooks relax me and help me sleep. I came across Girl, Wash Your Face and thought well here goes, another self help book, trying to make me feel better about myself. How wrong could I be...
I immediately felt Rachel's warm, kindhearted words were written for ME. It was if she had come over for a girly chat. The fact that Rachel narrates the book herself, makes it what it is. No one can mean the words she has written more than her. And that really comes across as she reads it with such conviction.
Rachel has a way of making you feel like you've been friends forever. Although she is so sweet, she won't take any excuses. And isn't that honestly what we all need, someone who is there with great advice but won't take any of your bs. No excuses about feeling lazy, you have to go out and chase your dreams.
I believe that the true genius of this book is that the author wrote it because she truly wants to help other women. Rachel Hollis honestly cares about me and you. She wants us to live our lives to its full potential. And she is so passionate about empowering women. This passion cannot help but motivate you to make the changes in your life to be who you want to be.
The book made me realise that although the path I'm on is not the one I originally wanted, I can still be happy! I have been just existing for a long time and now I'm starting to live life again. It's as if Rachel came into my house and pulled me out of bed. I feel as if she's one of my closest friends and said "come on, stop feeling sorry for yourself, get up and start being the best version of you that you can be!" I have been through a lot in life but it doesn't mean I should just give up. I can still have hopes and dreams, I just need to adjust them a little. And as Rachel says "no-one cares about your dreams as much as you do."
I now have the paper back of Girl, Wash Your Face now too and I've read it 3 times, I feel like I learn something new every time.
Rachel teaches you life skills to help you achieve whatever it is that you dream of.
The book is not only informative but my god is it funny. Rachel is so witty and will have you laughing at her funny stories.
I have recommended this book to my friends who have also fallen in love with it. I bought a copy yesterday for my cousins birthday and I can't wait to talk to her about it. It's one of those reads that you just want to share with everyone. It's the holy grail for all women, in all walks of life. Because the underlying message is the same for all of us, you deserve to be happy!!!
So I'll say it again... Girl, Wash Your Face has changed my life. Rachel Hollis, I just want to say Thank You! ❤️ xxx

Not for everyone ( not God believers stay away)
Thank you to the author for sharing all the experiences. The author connects all her experiences and the message she wants to share too much with God, I respect her but it's not fair to generalize and for me the book started not to have any sense from the minute she involved religious and God with the message I was trying to find. I'm an atheist.

Uplifting, confidence building and eye opening
What made the experience of listening to Girl, Wash Your Face the most enjoyable?
The author / narrator was a pleasure to listen to. Whilst the story contained many things I have heard before, her way of explaining and demonstrating was eye opening and heart warming. I felt like this book was written ABOUT me in many ways and would recommend it to anyone and everyone.
What other book might you compare Girl, Wash Your Face to, and why?
The Universe has your back - both really eye opening, empowering and confidence building.
What does Rachel Hollis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Her narration is amazing and you feel like she means every word.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes and BOTH!
Any additional comments?
Cannot wait to read your other books Rachel!

Please LISTEN to this book... YOU NEED IT!
I have never felt so compelled to share a book in my life.. I am telling anyone who will listen to go buy this book... from strangers in the supermarket to my hairdresser, my friends, my family, my colleagues, and I am telling you dear reader, you are reading this review because you want to see if this is worth spening your money on... I promise, it is. Let rachel into your life, your heart will thank you. Rachel's honesty is almost shocking; her unbosoming style is unrivalied in today's world so obsessed with perfection. Her charm and wit are there to ensure that you feel uplifted, even when the love is so tough, and the words so true that you think you might need to stop... there is something here for everyone, we can all relate to one if not all of the lies Rachel told herself and we should all free ourselves of these lies that serve neither us, nor those around us. Being lucky enough to own this book as both a hard copy & audible copy, I can tell you, that to have Rachel read this book, makes it even easier to feel that reading this book is like having the most powerful chat with your very best friend. The kind of friend who pushes you onward and makes you see yoursefl the way she sees you. Thank you Rachel & good luck new listeners & readers, picking up this book is going to change your life <3

Complete twaddle
This is without doubt the worst book I have ever purchased. It basically amounts to a compilation of Pinterest-style snippets of ‘wisdom’. You would get more inspiration from a fridge magnet. And it’s religious. Complete and utter tosh and hogwash.

Too many humble brags
This was a well intentioned book but the constant references to her millions of readers became a bit much, as well as the religious associations. I found it a little sickly and clichéd.

Yes, this is a Christian based book
I listened to this book almost as a way to try to prove to myself, that I read good books and this one was a trashy girly little book that everyone raving about it, simply has never read a good book.
Well, here I am humbling myself because this is a good book.
Let me start by saying that if you don’t have faith and people with faith annoy you, don’t bother. Rachel is a Christian and this book was published by a Christian publisher. So yes, God is involved, get over it.
Rachel talks about her life, in a way that so many of us can relate; but not many have the courage to speak about.
It’s funny, really easy to listen to and it did give a boost to my morale.
It allowed me to see certain things in my life in a different perspective.
It’s not a self-help book. It’s a book that puts life a girl and as woman in a relatable perspective, reaching the conclusion that we’re all doing just fine.
Totally worth the read/listen.

Glad to see I wasn't alone
I kept seeing this book in a bunch of my friend's insta stories about how it was so great and "life changing". I just kept thinking, wow, what did I miss with this? But reading more of the reviews on here I see that I wasn't alone in thinking she was humble bragging and that she over simplified everything. As if "just get up and do it" attitude is all people with problems are missing in their life. Also, I found that she contradicted herself several times. This isn't always uncommon in self help or self growth books, but usually its between chapters or sections in book, where in this book one paragraph would strongly contradict the paragraph just previous.
I never write reviews, but this book was pretty terrible. I don't think I have ever read a book that was so hyped up, and missed the mark by so far.

Why is this so popular?
Rachel Hollis... privileged and judgmental. I'm a thin gal but I was bothered by the fat shaming in this book. The author seems blissfully unaware of her own privilege and displays so much smugness it's nauseating. I couldn't finish the book, it was just too much blech.

Waste of time
I hated this so much. I forced myself to listen to the whole thing. I wished I wouldn’t have. I can’t relate at all. She goes on about peeing her pants while jumping on a trampoline or shaving her toes as confessions of horror. She sounds like a privileged arrogant women offering fake help.

Unbelievably self-indulgent
The narcissism radiating from this book is almost laughably unbelievable. There are some good principles, but how they are presented is almost comically terrible. This woman is REALLY into herself. I can’t believe I listened to this dumpster fire.

Basic Humble Brag Book
I like to stick with books that I walk away from with some sort of new knowledge or a motivated feeling - this book went popular quick so I decided to take a chance, at the end of the read I was very disappointed. Full of Pinterest deep quotes and humble brags. Wouldn’t recommend in a million years, even for other books of its level.

It’s typical of any Rachel Hollis
Was hoping for more from Ms. Hollis but again she disappointed with her regurgitated quotes and ideas from other people and her simplified “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” “just do it” ideology that only speaks to her white privilege and a closed-eyed perspective of the experiences other people live. She is great for a MLM company (and probably pumps people up which boosts sales and profits!) which is why her speaking fee is more than Michelle Obama. Not worth the time or money!

Copycat
Nothing new. Plagiarized. Not recommended. Rachel Hollis is a scam artist who found a way to get rich quick

So basic.
This book is the reason why I dislike so many people - because something like this is so vastly popular and well liked. It truly is such mediocre advice. People will just cling to anything and anyone these days. I'm so annoyed that I wasted 7 hrs of my life listening to this. #notsorry

Uninspiring
What exactly are her struggles?? I fail to see what life events she endured with a husband by her side and being blessed with children of her own. This woman has no clue how cruel life can really be. She sounded like a spoiled brat the whole time. Listened to an hours worth and shut it off!!
