Publisher's Summary

What can you uniquely give the world?

We often sell ourselves short with self-limiting beliefs, but most of us would be amazed and delighted to know that we do have something special - our distinctive passions and talents - to offer. And what if I told you that what you have to give will also enable you to live a life of true contentment? How is that possible? It happens when you embrace and curate your own simply luxurious life.

We tend to not realize the capacity of our full potential and settle for what society has deemed acceptable. However, each of us has a unique journey to travel if only we would find the courage, paired with key skills we can develop, to step forward. This book will help you along the deeper journey to discovering your best self as you begin to trust your intuition and listen to your curiosity.

You will learn how to:

  • Recognize your innate strengths
  • Acquire the skills needed to nurture your best self
  • Identify and navigate past societal limitations often placed upon women
  • Strengthen your brand, both personally and professionally
  • Build a supportive and healthy community
  • Cultivate effortless style
  • Enhance your everyday meals with seasonal fare
  • Live with less so that you can live more fully
  • Understand how to make a successful fresh start
  • Establish and mastermind your financial security
  • Experience great pleasure and joy in relationships
  • Strive for quality over quantity in every arena of your life

Living simply luxuriously is a choice: to think critically, to live courageously, and to savor each day as much as the grand occasions. As you learn to live well in your regular days, you will elevate your experience and recognize what is working for you and what is not. With this knowledge, you let go of the unnecessary, thus simplifying your life and removing the complexity. Choices become easier, life has more flavor, and you begin to feel deeply satisfying true contentment.

The cultivation of a unique, simple, and luxurious life is an extraordinary daily journey that each of us can master, leading us to our fullest potential.

Fabulous read!

I wish this book had been available years ago, this is the perfect read for all the women in your life. I was especially pleased that Shannon narrated her book. I have faithfully listened to her podcast and it made the experience of devouring this book even better having her familiar voice fill my mind with her wisdom. Well done Shannon!

A bunch of banalities, no structure

I was attracted to this book by its fabulous cover. Also, the blog of the author features a lot of beautiful images by the same artist.This is the only value for me out of the hard copy and audio book.

The book contains a lot of fluff like "know who you are", "be a strong woman", "decide for yourself" kind of wisdoms. It gives very little practical application. Out of the whole chapter I would not single out a single thought or idea.

The book has no structure. It"s about everything and nothing. The author refers to way too many quotes and (to me) it signals of her own lack of depth and experience. She says to live modestly in a smaller home, but does she know that often times it is more expensive to have a smaller home than a bigger home?

Overall, a lot of bragging about herself. Narration is beyond terrible. The book could have been 5 times shorter and would have more value.
