THIS MESSY MAGNIFICENT LIFE

Geneen Roth shares her years of struggling with body image, weight, and eating issues in a kind, meditative voice. As she narrates her journey from food obsession to staying in the moment, the listener alternates between simply leaning in to her confessions and being attentive to the wisdom of a life coach who wants listeners to live their best lives. Roth threads together her experiences, adages from spiritual traditions, and an invitation to contemplate modern eating habits. Many listeners will find themselves nodding along as Roth's story resounds with instances of how her self-worth was tied to her appearance. For anyone looking for an exploration of life, food, and self-esteem, this audiobook will be on the replay list. M.R. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2018]
