About this listen

The New York Times Bestseller

Fear. Grief. Loss. Betrayal. Rachel Hollis has felt all those things, and she knows you have too. Now, she takes you to the other side.

With her signature humor, heartfelt honesty, and intimate true-life stories, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hollis shows listeners how to seize difficult moments for the learning experiences they are and the value and growth they provide.

Rachel Hollis sees you. As the millions who listened to her #1 New York Times bestsellers Girl, Wash Your Face and Girl, Stop Apologizing, attend her RISE conferences and follow her on social media know, she also wants to see you transform.

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 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.

To Rachel, a life well-lived is one of purpose, focused only on the essentials. This is a small book about big feelings: inspirational, aspirational, and an anchor that shows that darkness can co-exist with the beautiful.

This has helped me realize that even though my darkest of times are because I was negligent with my decisions and the hurt I caused to the one closest to me, I can rebuild and deserve happiness.
I deserve to not be guilty and belittled no matter what I do to rectify what I've done. Lacey Graham

Rachel's perspective is one that can be received by so many, no matter the circumstances. I found myself thinking of myself and many loved ones as I listened, my grief and theirs. All unique. And Rachel speaks to anyone who can hear it. I am so grateful for her elegant way of sharing her world, the good and the awful, that allows us all to relate a little more to the lessons she's learned and the relief and support she's trying to offer. Beautiful book for anyone who finds themselves hurting and still wanting to hope.
