Don’t get me wrong I love Lisa! She is an amazing entrepreneur and marvelous speaker. The reason I purchased this book, after watching so many videos. However, very quickly it just became her life story, in details, who messaged whom, what they ate, what car he drove etc. This isn’t what I paid one credit ($15) for! The paper book, at least you can go through and return if it’s not what you expected. Here, you can only listen to a sample. And sample was very inspirational! Unlike the book. I don’t know how much longer I want to listen to “Adventures of me when I was 21” book. I wish I read all the reviews before purchasing it.

The voice is too robotic for me

I’m sure Ms Jacobs is a great person but I couldn’t comprehend any information because of the way it was narrated. It’s very “customer service robotic system” like. Too flat and too “right”. There is a very narrow amplitude of the voice, I wish Dr.Ramani narrated herself. I have to drop it bc I made it to the half of it, with great difficulty, and can’t even describe what’s it about, fully.

I don’t agree though, with the notion of ordering half the portion at the restaurant (paying full price? I’d rather ask to split it and pack the other half to go, and eat it tomorrow). Or, THROWING IT AWAY??? What a waste. I’m not going to do that. I’m not saying I’d rather eat it than throw it away (like, being human garbage can), I’m saying you can eat it tomorrow.

The author piggy backed on Elizabeth Gilbert’s book probably hoping that’s halfway to success? Also, being “famous” LA actress, casually throwing Peter Jackson and Michael J.Fox thinking it’ll lure the readers in without much effort?

I really empathized with author when she described her divorce (even though there were too many details for my taste, kind of like raw unedited diary), but then this rumble started with copy-pasted text messages, especially this being an audiobook, it’s incredibly annoying listening to names who says what. How did she think it’s going to benefit the book? It’s just page fillers.

I barely survived couple hours, just can’t anymore, my brain is offended.

After reading Brene Brown, Gabbie Bernstein, Dr.Ramani this feels like empty candy wrapper. No more.

I’m listening to this while in the middle of the move from… to my new life. It’s like all the words were taken from my head. So supportive. So nourishing. Validating. Empowering. Thank you.
