I really enjoyed this book. The chapters about being a mom were really helpful. She makes a lot of great points. Looking forward to reading Girl, Stop Apologizing next.
Rating: 4Two reads completed, several passages highlighted, and a whole new perspective on life and the pursuit of happiness. :)
Rachel Hollis has given us a new book! It's not fiction, it's not a cookbook, it's Girl, Wash Your Face: Stop Believing the Lies about Who You Are so You Can Become Who You Were Meant to Be. Part self help, part honest, heartbreaking non-fiction, Girl, Wash Your Face was the book I didn't know I needed. Broken into chapters by lie, yes as in the lies we believe in about ourselves, Rachel Hollis tackles the struggles women face daily and the steps we can take to make a positive, lasting difference. Rachel's personal stories are sometimes tough to read, but always relatable and her willingness to share her truths was incredibly impactful for me. The things she struggled and/or struggles with are the same things I struggle with. Her solutions? Easy to follow, though the dedication and the creation of the habit relies on your strength, will, and determination. It inspired me, Rachel's voice and words run through my head now throughout the day, and it taught me the ability to forgive myself each time I fail and believe the lies I shouldn't.
❝Recognizing the lies we've come to accept about ourselves is the key to growing into a better version of ourselves.❞
Though I cried, a lot, Girl, Wash Your Face is a humorous, powerful read that is easy to follow and inspiring. The solutions Rachel gives us are every day solutions, things that anyone can implement into their daily life whether through physical action or personal thought. She gives us the honest, harsh reality, but also gives us the chance to forgive ourselves, to understand others, and to create a healthy path towards healing and positivity. I loved the overarching message of self worth, power, and strength. I finished the last page with a renewed vigor for life and a new method of self-love. I highly recommend that everyone picks up a copy of Girl, Wash Your Face, whether you think you believe any lies or not. It's a book that women need and a book I'll be returning to repeatedly.
In fact, I'm off to read it again before I'm off to RISE, Rachel's women's conference!

I initially heard about Rachel on Jen Hatmaker's podcast. As she shared the premise of her book, I was captivated and knew it was one I needed to immediately order. Guys, I loved this book. Each chapter focuses on one lie that she (and we) told herself. She walks the reader through her own experience in battling that particular lie and shares how she eventually worked through it. This is a fabulous book that SO MANY women can relate to, and Rachel shares in such a down-to-earth way. One of the best books of the year thus far.
Rating: 4Compared to some of the other "self-help" books I've read, I liked this one more. However, it still was a little repetitive. The message was great, the stories were funny, but the same lines were used many times, even within her own anecdotes. I get that it didn't tell her life in chronological order, but it didn't need to repeat.
Overall, it was a solid read and I can see how it speaks to a lot of people, women especially. She's a great writer and the book is inspiring.

Amazing. Touch love is exactly what this book is, I would recommend this to both women AND men too! Rachel talks about the topics that people are too afraid or embarrassed to address. She talks about it with confidence and truth.
Rating: 5Very motivational, I loved the book which makes me believe in myself. Good work Rachel.
Rating: 5Great book, like some have said it does cover her experiences, but I think that lends a reality to what she is trying to help the reader with. I think all of us can see a part of us in almost all of what she covers. I definitely reccomend this book to anyone looking for growth.
Rating: 5love it.. so empowering. all woman should listen or read this book
Rating: 5
this book really spoke to me, I'm so glad I took the 7 hours to listen to it
Rating: 5love this book! so inspiring and motivating! if you are an entrepreneur, it will really help you to find perspective and not feel so alone!
Rating: 5She speaks to you in a way you would want to keep listening to. Now I know that She has been a keynote speakers at motivational platforms for a reason. Her personal challenging stories which she shared made the book even more relatable. One would definitely feel pumped up after reading this one and would work to bring change in life.
My two favourite takeaways from this book would be;
1). I and only I have the ability to make the changes in my life and to live the life of my dreams.
2). Never break promises you make to yourself. They are more valuable than the promises you make to others.
Looking forward to read her other works as well.

Rachel is a likeable author who was brutally honest and talked about her own personal struggles.
I really liked the chapters on life tactics such as dealing with body image and confidence.
One thing that was a little off putting for me personally is the continual references to faith and god. Whilst I know that Rachel is a deeply religious person, and for me this was the difference between 4 and 5 stars.

I’m a father of 2 daughters and loved it so much! It’s inspired me to also write about raising up girls to be confident, amazing women! Your openness, honesty, and authenticity was beyond refreshing. I laughed, felt sorrow, and renewed all within a single sentence at times. I see areas I went wrong with my girls and areas I knocked it Out of the park! I am blessed to have an amazing relationship with both my girls. We can talk about anything very candidly. Although they’re now 20 & 24 yrs old but they still live at home. I know God still has them with us at home for a reason and I want to maximize that opportunity! Once again, thank you for your willingness to write such an eye opening word that although meant for ladies has inspired a father. This should be REQUIRED reading for all dads with girls!!
Rating: 5I found parts of it were harder to relate to as I'm not a mom nor am I religious. But the overall message was so powerful. A must read for everyone.
Rating: 4wow! absolutely loved it. You should most definitely read it!!
Rating: 5BEST BOOK EVER! So inspiring. I am going to write my list of goals right now.
Rating: 5I liked her honesty in how she became a CEO and how it may look easy now, but she went through a lot to get to where she is.
Rating: 4Rachel is very vulnerable about her life and that makes her powerful read
