The Answers Are Within You

October 24, 2021

I've been following Amber Rae on social media for a few years now, so I know that Amber Rae's writing prompts and advice mesh with my personal style of reflection.

Like every self-help book, not everything in this book will be relevant to you, and even Amber brings it up in her introduction when she talks about using this book exactly how you need to, even if it's just jumping to the various sections that you want to explore. I've been feeling a bit restless recently and I love to journal, so I decided that I was going to read this book cover-to-cover and journal for each of the prompts that she brought up.

There's a lot of interesting ideas explored here that I haven't seen before, even as a fan of Amber's. I found myself bookmarking various sections that I know I want to come back to explore further one day. About 20 pages in my journal and almost all the ink in one of my gel pens later, I find myself more assured about which direction I want to move in, which is exactly what I wanted from this book.

Thank you to St. Martin's Press, St. Martin's Essentials, and NetGalley for the ARC.
