Publisher's Summary

How can you have a rich and fulfilling life? The choices you make, not your income or financial assets, are the most powerful determining factor for your quality of life.

Women have never had so many options. Yet we often experience a kind of paralysis, an unconscious willingness to follow societal dictates rather than become the CEOs of our own lives. When we mindlessly follow the dots, we smother our innate gifts and miss opportunities to fulfill our true potential.

There is another way - choosing to live a simply luxurious life. This book will show you how to invest your time and what to eliminate from your life. It will enable you to:

  • Design a life of purpose that is aligned with your passions and talents
  • Become financially independent
  • Enjoy cultivating a healthy mind and body
  • Build and maintain strong, loving relationships
  • Create a chic, timeless signature style
  • Design a comfortable home that is a true sanctuary
  • Travel in comfort and style
  • Discover simple pleasures that make each day something to look forward to

You can curate the life of your dreams by being purposeful and selective, no matter where you live, your income, or your relationship status. Luxury and true fulfillment are ours for the having if we know where to look and how to make the right choices.

Excellent! Inspiring, Elegant and a true treasure trove

I stumbled on Shannon Ables’ podcast by chance, and listening to her episodes, both new and old has become a self care ritual for me. I immediately purchased both her books on amazon (back when there was no audio version) because I knew I had to have them as part of my repertoire and reference for all things of good taste. I’ve since purchased both books on audible and have found myself hungry for more. Shannon has accomplished what few lifestyle coaches, bloggers and self-help gurus have been successful at - and that is authoring not one, but two excellent lifestyle enhancing books. This is not a prescription, or a step-by-step guide, but rather an invitation to consider elevating your daily life with easy, inexpensive, but truly life changing ideas and routines. The beauty of both her books is that they cover all the things you either learned from your mother and grandmother (but forgot), or things you ought to have learned. This is elegance curated - everything from food, to fashion, finances and failed relationships... it’s all here. Like a trusted friend, Shannon’s book has become a source of respite and injects inspiration whenever I am down. I look forward to listening and re-listening as it’s conditioning for my heart and soul. Play this during your commutes, while cleaning your house, or engaging in your weekly self-care rituals. This makes for a wonderful gift. Thank you Shannon!

Terrible book with antiquated advice.

I was hoping for a book that would present thoughtful and original ideas to both inspire reflection and catalyze action. This is none of that. With advice that borders on offensive and is absolutely simplistic this book misses the mark. Save your money and your time.
