Publisher's summary

An inspiring and innovative guide towards living your best life—made easy—from Venus Williams, one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

Throughout Venus Williams' incredible career in tennis, she's been asked almost every question imaginable. What she eats, how she trains, what she does to unwind, and most frequently, how does she manage to do it all?

Venus harnessed a rich blend of hard-won wisdom and core discipline to achieve her goals while keeping a simple promise to herself: to keep things fun. But after being diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disorder that affected her emotional and physical wellness, Venus's vow was put to the test. She came up with the STRIVE strategy—a winning combination of holistic and scientific approaches to wellness and performance that focuses on making self-improvements reachable and sustainable.

In STRIVE, listeners will learn how eight tiny but essential tenets can help turn smart choices into habits. And once that happens, you’ll forge a lifestyle you return to because you want to, not because you have to—and that’s when you start winning.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The book is well structured

I like the structure and clarity of the presentation. I think there are other important aspects of diet that are not considered here. Look at Dr David Duarte from academia Unani as an option for dealing with Schjogren autoimmune síndrome. Venus might be greatly surprised. Overall, I appreciate Venus’ effort to share her experience to improve her life with us and I will ever thank her for it. Best regards

Disappointed

I love Venus and admire her athletic and entrepreneurial achievements and really wanted to love this book. The book lacks substance and feels way too generic and like it was written by someone else, not a great champion like Venus. Also, very disappointed to hear the voice switched after chapter 4 to another voice, very confusing.
