Eat, Pray, #FML

Product Information

Reading this book has absolutely inspired me. These are words of pure truth. To say I needed to read this is an understatement. I'm so thankful for this book and how it opened my eyes about myself and my relationships. I'm ready to see it on the big screen!" The writing was still blah with waaaaaay to many ‘dudes’ and ‘likes’ and ‘he’s so hot!’ phrases that were really over used and made me feel like this person was a high schooler. Wallace is now a motivational speaker, which also alludes to the future plans of her daughter, Gabrielle Stone. Growing up in the entertainment industry inspired Stone to enter this realm herself. Where i got lost was in Europe. She goes to these absolutely amazing places and hardly anything about the culture is written. As an Aussie i rolled my eyes so, so many times and thought ‘Typical American. The entire world revolves around them’

I am Not Like Other Girls. Example 1: This girl wants so badly to be special and unique. She keeps casually dropping that she's doing this film or that film, but she's a D-list actor. She waxes poetic about how she has changed people's lives with her book and that she has been put on this earth to show other women that they can survive heartbreak. She doesn't actually give advice or useful information, she just cries over this dude she's known for 6 weeks. Example 2: I'll just let this quote from her book speak for itself: "When I'm not trying to flirt with someone, I talk the same way I talk to my good friends. I call them dude, don't really filter anything I'm saying, and might even be described as 'not ladylike.'" Example 3: Another quote: "Want to know how you're really over someone? Have a random run-in, with zero makeup on, wearing elephant pants and some shitty old tank top that shows you probably didn't shower that day. Couldn't, have cared, less." She is literally the first person to ever go out in public looking like a mess. What a revolution. Gabrielle Stone offers a group class on Amphy to help people organize their life to achieve their goals and dreams. The name of Stone’s Amphy class is Creating Dreams and Making Them Happen. This class lasts 60 minutes and brings others together in an online collaborative classroom.Okay, let me say right up front that I am one of those people who likes Eat, Pray, Love, both the book and the movie. Not every single bit of it, especially when it comes to the book, but it's one of the few contemporary books that I have rated 5 stars. I generally reserve that rating for recognized classics.

The more I read the book, the more I hated the author. She seemed very shallow and obsessed with herself. She made multiple comments throughout the book about how all these men thought she was beautiful, incredible, cute. Like she needed her ego stroked? But she was still pining over Javier! I also felt like she was looking for sympathy. Each new person that she introduced to the book, she told them her story of her ex husband and Javier. Each person of course expressed sorrow yet told her how amazing she is and how much an idiot they both were. Like I said, she obviously had insecurities and needed reassurance constantly. But to continuously read the same thing over and over again was tiresome. Her trip to Europe was not very interesting and seemed like she spent most of that time drinking and partying with random people she met, combined in wallowing in self pity and being self absorbed. By the point I stopped reading, I really didn't like her very much. I particularly find it cringey how she talked about all her social media posts with inspirational quotes and apparently she got a ton of messages from people who felt moved by them and she kind of tried to make this a self help book and act like she knows what she's doing. I would not take life advice from someone who acted the way she did with Javier and his family. I'm going to assume the author ends up with him after all this or else he wouldn't have been such a big focus of the book. But I just don't care. There is probably a target audience for this book but I definitely don't fit that audience and would not recommend this book. Gabrielle captured the emotional rollercoaster of relationships, solo travel, and discovering yourself and she bares her soul in this book.

Cheating Led To Divorce

I'm going to start with the holy hell; I felt really bad for this woman. Her husband screwed her over so badly. HOWEVER, I spent a good portion of the book going, “you don’t love Javier, that’s lust doll.” Also, her accounts of her travels are 100% why Americans don’t travel. She saw less than 1% of these countries and only parties spots. She missed out big time, which is sad. I’m also not going to hate on her going through her hoe phase cause everyone deserves it. Whether it needs to be a book, however, that’s another story. I’m not sure this was ‘the empowering, I overcame my heartbreak’ story it’s being touted to be. It’s definitely a version of Eat, Pray, Love if you sub Pray with Party and Love with DTF, all of which are fine but a bit disingenuous. Gabrielle Stone was born in 1988 in Los Angeles, California which makes her a woman in her early 30s during the early 2020s. What does FML mean?

to summarize: “I can’t believe a guy I’m flirting with is confessing his love for me. This is so unexpected. I thought we were just friends!” Stone describes the manifestation techniques she uses to uncloud her mind and reach her dreams. As Stone has created a career in entertainment and publishing, she has a lot to share! If you have ever been curious about how to move past your psychological barriers to level up your life, Stone’s Creating Dreams and Making Them Happen is for you. Learn from one of the most dynamic business woman around in this lively and interactive class. The timeline on her “writing the first book” is all over the place. First it starts with “I’m still writing it” then it jumps to “I can’t believe things aren’t working out with this guy - and it’s even worse cuz everyone loved him in book 1” and it’s like ma’am how was it possible for you to think that in that moment when in the next chapter you’re talking about how you’re still not done with the book..???Gabrielle Stone dedicated much of her life to dancing, as well as learning the craft of acting. Stone starred in several films as an actress during her career, which spanned from 2006 to 2018. She also transitioned to writing and directing films too. Third: Again, she is delusional. Every interaction she has with Javier seems fabricated and I actually rather read a book from his point of view.
