"I've fallen in love with Jamie's words and how she so effortlessly
can make us feel united with them. She has a true gift of helping
us realize that all of our 'human' moments are what make us so
special. She is a real light in this world." -Lucy Hale,
Award-Winning Actress from Pretty Little Liars, The Hating Game,
and more Blending memoir, sharp social insights, and unique
practical tools, author Jamie Varon is your guide to radical
contentment-a satisfied life outside the bounds of societal
expectations. Too many of us are waiting for our lives to begin,
putting our happiness on layaway for some future version where it
all lines up, when we've accomplished it all, when we have the
perfect career, bodies, partners, and when our lives finally feel
"good enough." But what is good enough? Who gets to decide? And
when do we ever reach it? Jamie takes a sharp, incisive look at the
industries that are constantly telling us to do more, be more, and
keep striving, pushing, and hustling-and shows you how to radically
opt out of societal conditioning. We've learned to be terrified of
contentment, thinking it will lead us to complacency. Yet, being
content in a world that profits off our dissatisfaction is not
complacency. It's revolutionary. Radically Content makes the case
for a new framework of living. Exploring themes like guilt, I'll be
happy when..., anxiety, settling, control, healing, shame,
self-trust, and being our own worst enemies-not only will you
unlearn the dogma of that discontent, but learn practical tools to
create a more satisfied life for yourself, including: Cultivating
real self-trust Defining your own version of "success" Living with
intention Rewriting your personal narrative Creating consistent and
healing rituals Packed with revelatory insights, Radically Content
is an exhale. A respite from the chaos of our current world. A calm
place to land when you've had enough with trying to be enough.
