A feel good yet deep discovery book about a woman who has everything on paper, looses it all by choice and finds it all again within herself whilst soaking in the cultures, foods and glory of her travels.Ĭompletely Self Obsessed becomes Assured Obsessed
This book is a wonderful mixture of travel, friendships, self discovery, grieving and spirituality that I am oh so glad I could relate too and suddenly feel not so alone whilst processing my past. It’s not heavy going by any means but she puts a perspective on life that is so deep and true yet light to take. I saw Italy, India and Bali through her eyes and felt swept away in her world of self discovery, spirituality, processing and finding herself that I oh so needed to hear. I could relate to her on so many levels it was so human. long term relationship went bad blah blah you know the rest) I went on her journey and mine too. I love the fact Elizabeth narrates this (and her voice sounds identical to Julia Roberts!? How odd!?) and with Liz’s emotional journey through finding herself from a lost place (which I had been in a similar place a few years ago minus the amazing travelling afterwards.
I decided to download the book and give it a go and I am so very glad I did. A debilitating low that was unlike the others I had before due to being stuck indoors with COVID-19 restrictions (add anxiety and depression into the mix and that’s a hella cocktail of fun.) and then I remembered watching the EPL film and it always brought me joy. Your taken on a journey of self discoveryĪ few months ago, like most of us I hit a real low. But life happened & long term ill health after an accident during my late 30’s had prevented me considering it xx Whilst listening and being super inspired by this book Have found organisations that offer travel with ‘care support’ provided xx So savings started and I think for my 50th birthday I’ll be off on the long awaited/needed adventure xx Elizabeth writes & narrates this beautifully, with enough depth not to lose you, enough humour to keep you alert (I tend to drift off easy) & with a skill that really made me feel I went on this journey also xx Excellent 5***** Had planned that my business would be running itself by then and could be monitored from anywhere in the world. Loved this so much that even though I’m just finished I’m looking forward to starting it again tonight x As a woman who married & became a mother while still in my teens (because that’s what I wanted more than anything) I always aimed to travel & find myself in my 40’s once the kids had left home & were all settled in their lives.
