Inspired!

This book came into my life at the most random moment that I didn’t know I needed. I truly enjoyed listening to the audio so I needed a physical copy too.

Dancing with Dreams: Navigating Shonda Rhimes’ Creative Odyssey

Shonda Rhimes’ autobiography is a mesmerizing journey through the corridors of her brilliant mind, where creativity and resilience intertwine to craft an inspiring narrative that left me both enchanted and motivated. A must read for all women!!!

Love this point of view

We hear so much about the power of boundaries, and how no is a full sentence - which is all so powerfully true. However, we rarely hear about the power of yes. Lean in, do the things that intimidate you - the reward is out there and it is great!

Must Read

My words will not do this book justice. READ IT. It’s funny, emotional, relatable, and just incredible in every way possible. It’s no surprise Shonda Rhimes is an amazing writer, but this book blew me away. Sending it to all my friends to read!

Loved this book!

Reading the title, I thought this was going to be a book about Shonda saying "yes" to everything for one year. But this was about Shonda challenging herself to take on difficult tasks. She has to say "yes" to herself, "yes" to saying no, "yes" to standing, and more. She transforms herself into a new person. And I thought it was very inspiring to see her take on these challenges so late in life. I am much younger but it gives me hope that I can make active changes now and reap the benefit.
