Review by Library Journal Review

Fans of the coauthors' podcast of the same name will delight in this book, which captures Simcik and Williams's playful yet circumspect style of integrating trendy pop-cultural conversations around wellness and aging alongside spirituality, entrepreneurship, and personal development into actionable chapters that feel as much like conversations with a friend as they feel like advice or knowledge sharing. The story starts when the women find each other through Soul Cycle, then grow and glow from there to shine light on struggles and strengths facing people at transitional moments--not just their transition from 20s to 30. Chapters focus on spiritual growth, self-care, nourishment, career, and relationships, and how anyone can harness the power of community by leaning into vulnerability and change. The material might feel a little "woo woo" to some but it will bring Gabby Bernstein and Sahara Rose fans into Simcik and Williams's fold while deepening current podcast listeners' knowledge of the duo's stories and practices. VERDICT With raw personal stories, reflections on the power of shared experiences, and prompts, activities, and resources designed to spark growth, this is a soul searcher's guide for seeking and embracing change.--Emily Bowles
