How Are You, Really?: Living Your Truth One Answer at a Time

"The perfect read for every person who has ever felt stuck between where she is and where she wants to be. In short? Everyone I know." - Maria Menounos, New York Times bestselling author

The truth is, we lie. We lie to ourselves about how we're really feeling and what we really want. Not anymore.

In How Are You, Really?, Jenna Kutcher teaches how to harness your power to take control of your life. You deserve more – and deep down, you know it. If, when you get really honest with yourself, you discover that you want more out of your life: more joy, more passion, more fulfillment, and more peace? This book is for you.

In today's chaotic world, sometimes you might wake up and not feel like yourself anymore, and you don't even know how you are… REALLY. You're trying to balance it all: your family, your work, and your goals, but your emotions are all over the place and you don't feel as confident and happy as you thought you would.

This book is a guide to reframing your entire life and finally finding your own sense of joy and fulfillment in a world telling you who to be. It's about understanding what's going on in your head and finding your way back to a life that is truly your own.

Your expert guide is Jenna Kutcher, who started from working a day job at Target to building an empire while living in a small town in Minnesota as a mom. In her inspirational debut book, she shares how she struggled with these same issues to find her identity and balance in launching a business, raising a family, and, eventually, starting her popular podcast The Goal Digger.

Join the millions of people who count on Jenna's life and business advice every week because of her authentic example and deep understanding of how women think and strive to achieve their dreams. It's time to ask yourself the question you've been avoiding: How are you, really? It's time to find your answer, and start living.

This book was hard to put down as each chapter felt like sitting down having a conversation with a good friend. Jenna has a gift of storytelling and asking the meaningful questions that cause you to pause and reflect, to look more closely at how you are… really!

As a working mama of little kiddos, Jenna has been someone I’ve loved following in recent years. I was so excited to hear she wrote a book, and I can tell you, not only did it not disappoint- it was even better than I could have imagined. I absolutely devoured it- every chapter will leave you inspired and motivated to create, visualize and go after your dreams. She writes in a way the feels like she’s your best friend right there talking to you, it’s the best book I’ve read in a long time!!

Reading Jenna’s book felt like having a heart-to-heart with your best friend at a coffee shop or at a bonfire. I was impressed with each of the 3 sections of the book, and the last section was my favorite! So many books in this genre provide action steps to achieve your goals or live your best life, but the steps Jenna describes really resonated more than others I’ve read. This is a book I will re-read many times. Highly recommend!!

How Are You, Really is everything my soul needed in this season of life & more! One of my favorite quotes was, “You’re going to have to walk slowly in the direction of yourself, one small step at a time.” These beautiful words from Jenna reminded me I am exactly where I need to be & that it’s OK to slow down & take one step at a time. I am excited to take Jenna’s advice to rest, trust the ping, enjoy the present moment & align with my values to create the life I want without risking my health & what matters most. I will be ordering more copies for family, friends & clients. ✨

Not what I expected!! Seriously a must-read book! This book was equal parts self-help/motivation/talking to a friend, and I so desperately didn’t want it to be over. Loving Jenna Kutcher is easy, and her writing is the same way. Reading the book felt like a conversation with a friend; I laughed, I cried, and I genuinely wanted to become the best version of me. Jenna leaves you with prompting questions in each chapter; just like a good friendship should.
