They tried to suppress me. They tried to lock me into their standard ideas. While everyone was tuned into society's culture, current events, politics, and social media, I was living the life many of us secretly desire. I broke free while no one was looking! I traveled to many countries, danced fearlessly on mountain tops, sang with people from across the oceans, had multiple orgasms and hot passionate sex even movie stars dream about — I did it all, because I stopped talking about it and became it — Free. They were right about one thing ... life is abundant and you can manifest anything. This is my story of life, love, pain, and pursuit. Come take this journey with me and set yourself free. I am Helen and to me, there is Nothing Sexier Than Freedom! DEFY THE ODDS THAT ARE STACKED AGAINST YOU.
Helen Edwards wrote a raw, brutally honest book. I feel most readers could relate to many topics she covered about her life. iWhen her brother committed suicide, I cried. I could relate to her pain, unfortunately, I’m a member of this clubs. Thank you Goodreads for this amazing read.

I stumbled apon this book from an old friend from middle school.. her sister wrote it. I found it when I was in need of something encouraging and positive in my life. I loved every minute of reading this very raw.. honest and open book. The stories shes told and the events she went through really hit home for me. I loved it so much I ordered a soft cover book.. the one I just finished was digital. Would very much recommend this book to any woman struggling with life... needs a pick me up.. needs something positive or just loves a good story.
This was a Goodreads giveaway and it is not a book I would typically buy. She is as honest and real as it gets. She is a survivor and lived her life her way and made choices that must have just broken her heart and kept going, kept loving, and doing what she had to do. I would recommend this book to anyone who has been knocked down and needs to be encouraged not to stay there. I gave it three stars because, like I said, it usually isn't the kind of book I would generally read and it was a little too 'raw' for me but a good read, none the less.
Love to hear how other woman stand in their courage, even through all the ups and downs. I personally understand her journey through life in the search of health and wellness.
Helen is the real deal! She makes steps towards the place she wants to end up! She doesn't stop there, she wants everyone to find the same happiness she's found!
I was absolutely enthralled through the entire book! I LOVED it!! All the juiciness, the truth bombs, the raw honesty and the authenticity in this book blew my mind! Helen's opinions are not for the faint of heart and they're not for those who aren't ready to look in the mirror and OWN their s**t!!!! I found myself having moments of, "omg I didn't know other women felt like that too!" OFTEN while reading this book! I would HIGHLY recommend this book to any woman that's on a self-love journey, no matter what level you're at!
