Publisher's summary
The first book from the number one New York Times best-selling author of Untamed
The inspiring and hilarious instant New York Times best-seller from the beloved writer, speaker, activist, and founder of Momastery, whose memoir Love Warrior was an Oprah’s Book Club selection.
Glennon Doyle’s hilarious and poignant reflections on our universal (yet often secret) experiences have inspired a social movement by reminding women that they’re not alone. In Carry On, Warrior, she shares her personal story in moving, refreshing, and laugh-out-loud new essays and some of the best-loved material from Momastery.
Her writing invites us to believe in ourselves, to be brave and kind, to let go of the idea of perfection, and to stop making motherhood, marriage, and friendship harder by pretending they’re not hard.
In this one woman’s attempt to love herself and others, listeners will find a wise and witty friend who shows that we can build better lives in our hearts, homes, and communities.

Story
Just when Glennon Doyle Melton was beginning to feel she had it all figured out - three happy children, a doting spouse, and a writing career so successful that her first book catapulted to the top of the New York Times best seller list - her husband revealed his infidelity and she was forced to realize that nothing was as it seemed. A recovering alcoholic and bulimic, Glennon found that rock bottom was a familiar place. In the midst of crisis, she knew to hold on to what she discovered in recovery: that her deepest pain has always held within it an invitation to a richer life.

Story
There is a voice of longing inside each woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good partners, daughters, mothers, employees, and friends. We hope all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives and wonder: Wasn’t it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful, hiding our discontent—even from ourselves.

How can we discover strength and community inside our differences? What tools do we use to address feelings of self-doubt or helplessness? What do we do when it all starts to feel like too much?

When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

What could possibly be “lucky” about addiction? Absolutely nothing, thought Laura McKowen when drinking brought her to her knees. As she puts it, she “kicked and screamed . . . wishing for something - anything - else” to be her issue. The people who got to drink normally, she thought, were so damn lucky. But in the midst of early sobriety, when no longer able to anesthetize her pain and anxiety, she realized that she was actually the lucky one. Lucky to feel her feelings, live honestly, really be with her daughter, change her legacy.

She isn't afraid to say what everyone is thinking when it comes to love, sex, friendship, and many other topics that are all too often sugar-coated in polite Southern company.

Rock princess Lacey Sturm wants to share her journey from heartbreak to wholeness with young women. In The Mystery, Sturm helps listeners understand that any loving relationship begins with knowing your own identity in Christ. And yet, so many people have learned to define love through their own dysfunctional family, unhealthy relationships, the romances and wrecked relationships of mainstream pop culture, or, sadly, through pornography. Is it any wonder so many people end up brokenhearted, divorced, abused, abusive, or even suicidal?

Overcome with embarrassment following her nationally televised failures at romance, Emily finally committed her heart to the only one she knew would never leave her empty and alone. Abandoning her desire to be chosen by men and finding peace in the fact that she was already chosen by God, Emily found the joy she had been looking for in serving God.

There is a voice of longing inside each woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good partners, daughters, mothers, employees, and friends. We hope all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives and wonder: Wasn’t it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful, hiding our discontent—even from ourselves.

Edgy and often deeply personal, the 21 essays collected here come from a wide variety of writers. Some identify as witches, others identify as writers, musicians, game developers, or artists. What they have in common is that they've created personal rituals to summon their own power in a world that would prefer them powerless. Here, they share the rituals they use to resist self-doubt, grief, and depression in the face of sexism, slut shaming, racism, patriarchy, and other systems of oppression.

All the feels
I had no idea what to expect with this book and had never heard of the author, but I liked the cover, the title and it received really good reviews, so why not? Glennon's stories are completely relatable, raw, and real, sometimes wrapped up in a sweet package and sometimes leaving you feeling like you've been punched in the gut. Without giving too much away, I almost stopped listening within the first 20 minutes because I didn't really have much in common with her background and the hardships she was describing, but as I listened longer, I found a realness and transparency that would hit anyone right in the heart. Her language is beautiful, but the true beauty of her story is how her mind works and how she expresses her perspective on life, motherhood, and family.

This book triggered me!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I am glad that it came into my life via a recommendation from a friend. Although not expressly about relationships, this book triggered me and my views on relationships and the relationship that is possible for me. I laughed and cried. I cried and laughed. I am thankful to you, Glennon, for sharing your story. You are smart and funny and amazing. 10/10. Highly recommend.

One woman's honesty is worth a listen
Would you listen to Carry On, Warrior again? Why?
Yes. Her story, trials, lessons, and wisdom is worth listening to. While I don't agree with 100% of what she says, I still found the overall message to be positive and hopeful.
What does Glennon Melton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I loved hearing the author read her own writing. However, there were times I wished her performance was a little more polished and a little less halting. It's like someone gave her feedback to slow down and speak...with...intention...and it just comes off unnatural.
Any additional comments?
I saw other reviewers mention the God thing, but it still caught me off guard. I really wish the description mentioned "Christian" since that is apparently a big part of the author's identity and purpose. At times the relentless discussion of faith and God alienated me, but I did like that she mentioned that she equates God to Love when speaking with people of different faiths. I do that already, so it was nice to hear someone of such devout faith make attempts to find common ground with those of different beliefs.

Thought provoking & Inspiring
Great listen and the author does a nice job reading it. Glennon has a unique and encouraging perspective for getting through struggles and managing the day to day. An eye opener for a glimpse into the pain of addiction too. She is like that friend, that leaves you speechless for better or for worse. Worth reading!

Very inspiring
I love Glennon's realness. I recommend this book for any mom who is not your typical PTA mother, any mom who is struggling to get through the day to day activities of life, and any person who has struggled with addiction. This book made me reevaluate my life and what is truly important.
