Smart girls screw up too : the no-nonsense guide to creating the life you want

**Own your screw ups, get inspired and create the life you want.** Sick of chasing the perfect relationship, career or bank balance? Tired of feeling like you’re never quite ‘enough’? You’re not alone. And it’s time to do something about it. __Smart Girls Screw Up Too__, is THE no-nonsense guide for a generation of women who secretly muse about what might be possible in their careers, health and relationships but don’t know where to start or are too afraid to. When a clusterf\*\*k of screw ups found author Bella Zanesco burnt out, depressed and with a broken soul, she knew something – perhaps everything – had to change. But what? Her first ports of call were the usual Band-Aids: Tinder, work and shopping. But soon, she realised those weren’t going to work. If she wanted to fix this thing, she was going to need to take extreme measures. And so she began the journey that would transform her from ‘Sad Girl’ to ‘Smart Girl’; a journey that meant taking up all the things that she’d been told were good for her but she had always been too afraid, too ‘busy’, or too lazy to try. Cue everything from green juices to setting boundaries to quitting her job to culling her friends. Delivered with no-holds-barred honesty, humour and compassion, __Smart Girls Screw Up Too__ brings together: the latest research into gut science, neuroscience and epigenetics; ancient tribal wisdom; interviews with global game changers; and insights from the author’s own two-year study of over 2000 women. Paired with a Personal Life Audit, you will get immediate clarity about where to start when seeking purpose, vitality and love. And, together with Bella – the wise but ass-kicking bestie you wish you’d known earlier – you’ll embark on a series of simple daily challenges that will not only get you to the root causes of why you think, feel and behave as you do, but see you making changes that stick. No matter what your starting point, you are capable of creating the life you want NOW. Sick of chasing the perfect relationship, career or bank balance?

No matter what your starting point, you are capable of creating the life you want NOW Smart Girls Screw Up Too is based on my bold experiment at 36 to recreate my life with 15 Aspirations that put only my mental, physical and spiritual health first. The Aspirations were my humble attempt to ditch an unhealthy addiction to the work that I hated and the lifestyle diseases that came with it; Tinder swiping to find a man to knock me up before it was too late and Pinot Grigio to mask the pain of it all. The ultimate goal was to find joy, love and a career that made a difference. The Aspirations, the questions I asked that inspired them and the new way of living saw me navigate my way out of depression without meds to become a joyful world champion in 18 months.
