Our second book club episode is on Untamed by Glennon Doyle. In this episode, Lucy, Jamie, and Avery explore Glennon’s 4 Keys to Freedom: 1) Feel it All, 2) Be Still and Know, 3) Dare to Imagine, and 4) Build and Burn. We also highlight our favorite nuggets of wisdom about parenting that Glennon shares in Untamed.
Note: No prior reading/knowledge of this book is required to enjoy and benefit from this episode.
In this episode we discuss:
- Key 1: Feel it All {Pain vs suffering; how we avoid our feelings; how to befriend our feelings}
- Key 2: Be Still and Know {Stop doing. Be still. Sink into the body. Get a nudge to the next right thing. Opposite of the “poll and research” strategy}
- Key 3: Dare to Imagine {What is true and beautiful?}
- Key 4: Build and Burn {Must destroy the “good enough” to build the “true and beautiful”}
- Parenting nuggets of wisdom garnered from Untamed
Do try this at home:
- Pick one of the Keys to Freedom (perhaps the one that resonated with you the most or the one you think you need the most) and practice it in your life
