    Book Review: The Fearless Factor

    The Fearless Factor
    by Jacqueline Wales

    Who do you think you are?

    That is just one of the many questions that author Jacqueline Wales asks in this no nonsense self-help book. It is a question which can hold you back – or it can help to catapult you forward.

    Wales directs her words to the older woman (40’, 50’s and older) but it is chock full of wise words for all ages and genders. Too many of us get stuck in the past and learn to use the negative words and disappointments as excuses. Is the “devil we know” really the better life? Just making it through the day isn’t enough. Forging ahead is being a sur-thriver.

    Fearlessness is not the absence of fear – it is the courage to face our fears head-on.”

    Jacqueline Wales speaks from experience as she encourages women to take responsibility for their own lives, make choices even if it means facing the unknown and to see every failure as a gift to try again. An accompanying workbook guides readers through mind and eye opening decisions towards happiness.

    This must read book addresses an audience where sudden empty nests, retirement and other life changes including divorce and widowhood often occur. This book helps the reader see into herself and focus on goals while she sheds the bias of a past that can keep her trapped.

    Life has to be lived – that’s all there is to it.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt


    The Fearless Factor is a timely new self-help book from in demand speaker and entrepreneur Jacqueline Wales. This guide helps women move from stuck in fear to moving forward with practical and inspirational advice on seizing the life they want and know they deserve! Packed full of stories from the trenches, and insight from women around the world who have been there, done that , The Fearless Factor is a must-have for women who are ready to confront their fears and move on to the next stage of living. Using the jungle of life as her framework, Wales takes readers through the process of facing their biggest fears, whether they be related to money, relationships, career, age or motherhood, and gives prescriptive ways to overcome those fears and succeed in life. From learning how to dump emotional baggage that is useless and potentially dangerous to succeeding at stepping away from needing jobs or people to fill them up, readers can learn to detach, let go, and trust their own instincts for what is good for them. Fear dominates headlines, drives decisions, and can prevent readers from achieving true happiness in everyday life. The Fearless Factor teaches them to face their fears head on and take control of their future.
