get your life together, girl

“It's rare that a motivational book affords such insights that the reader thinks, "I wish I'd had this book growing up: it's guidance would have saved a lot of time and trouble." But Get Your Life Together, Girl: Imperfect Life Lessons from the Storyteller is such a read. It excels in outlining the exact fallacies and truths about everyday living, including the paths that inadvertently cause people to give up their inner strength and wisdom, charting clear lessons learned from life events with an attention to detail not seen in other motivational writings.

If only one motivational book were chosen for years of growth and study, it should be Get Your Life Together, Girl: Imperfect Life Lessons from the Storyteller. It weaves an educational, compelling story with life truths that were hard-earned by the author—but the path will be easier for readers because someone has already done the hardest work of all: synthesizing these life experiences into a formula for success.” D. Donovan, Sr. Editor of Midwest Review

"The book is laid out in seven easy steps to self-awareness and taking control of our life’s purpose. Using her gift of being a storyteller, the process is explained with wit and intense meaning, balancing her personal experience and insights with philosophy, psychology and clearly outlined motivational life lessons. The end result is to create a whole person, ourselves, based on who we perceive we should be: without fear of failure, without fear of rejection, without fear of ridicule. In looking into ourselves and evaluating our lives to the present time, we are instructed to learn from what has happened and move forward: “Everything is meant to teach us a lesson.” A well-presented and surprisingly interesting self-help book."

"Get Your Life Together, Girl is a well thought out self-help guide designed from pure and powerful experiences. This is not the typical self-help book full of the usual do’s and don’ts that usually don’t help at all. Vann provides seven key areas to help the reader focus on the truth in the pain they may or may not have caused themselves, then outlines how to push past this negativity and become stronger individuals. I love how blunt and honest Vann is when she shares her own experiences and gives her insights with point-blank accuracy. I recommend Get Your Life Together, Girl to anyone that has ever had a moment of weakness or found themselves mentally tearing themselves down. I believe Vann’s self-help guide belongs in libraries, doctors' offices...because her experiences and bold truths would definitely help women see themselves in a new, positive light. Get Your Life Together, Girl is the product of a simple question which leads me to believe that Vann has much more to share that would be highly beneficial to women everywhere and I hope to see more of her writing in the future."

Storyteller Danielle A. Vann was used to being the one who asked the thought-provoking questions as a former journalist turned novelist, but when the tables were turned, she was faced with a life-altering question of her own: “Can you name everyone you love?” Asked before a live audience, those simple words seemed innocent until the answer rapidly revealed potent insights and set Vann on an epic life-changing audit to get her own life together. But, can six words truly redirect the trajectory of a life? Hell YES, they can!

Vann reveals seven of life’s least utilized truths, which are firmly based on and organized around the fact that everything you need to live your best life is already inside of you. Moving through the essential steps: Getting to know yourself, Stop running from your problems, Stop dumbing yourself and your dreams down to make others comfortable, Stop making excuses rather than decisions, Drop your limiting expectations, Stop placing your value in others, and Stop sitting empty-handed waiting for life to show up, what unfolds is not the typical self-help book; instead, what was born is a complete shift—an all-encompassing movement in all facets of life through all relationships—including the one with self, spirituality, grief, lifestyle, marriage and parenting, and finally flipping the script for a grounded beautiful life.

Written through edgy, raw humor and hard-earned life experiences, Vann takes you on a no BS, straightforward, get out of your own way, stop looking at your damn shoes and get into your own lane journey that breaks through the most common barriers and mistruths. It’s an experience that further shatters the mind’s storytelling tendencies of being stuck in fear, grief, perceiving oneself as small, misused “sage” advice and unworthiness, and for the first time introduces the storyteller to the real author of your life—you.

 By the time the last page is dog-eared and highlighted, the inner storyteller will have taken a seat, while the real person, the one the reader has been fighting against for far too long, steps in as the earthshaking, goal-gettin’, butt-kicking, purpose-driven purveyor of inspiration that marches to her own beat and says Hell YES to living a life that is finally together!
