Inhalt:

It's Never Too Late to Ignite Your Inner Badass Stephanie Geller never thought of herself as a badass. She just knew she had some badass stories to share with the world. From growing up as an Air Force brat to training for the Olympics, from waitressing at Waffle House to succeeding as a top executive, her life stories hilariously illustrate the magic that can happen when you fearlessly and relentlessly believe in yourself. Above all, this book is a brave and exuberant ode to carrying your heart with you wherever you go. It is true that by age forty Stephanie's bank account had grown from two figures to seven. But this is far from your typical story of upward mobility dwelling on hardship, isolation, and struggle. Rather, this book is an honest and entertaining celebration of the joy and pure fun to be had at each and every wrong turn, dead end, and golden opportunity. It is an enthusiastic tribute to kindness, laughter, friendship, hard work, and hard play. Spanning over five decades of simply rocking it every day, these vibrant stories are bound to stick with you long after you've put them down. Whether it's Six Teenagers and an El Camino, where Stephanie uses shoelaces to MacGyver the broken windshield wipers on her friend's car in the middle of a rainstorm, or I'll Take His Name to the Grave, concerning a fling with a celebrity she meets at an underground club in LA, or The Class They'll Never Forget, where she convinces her fellow financial advisor trainees to wear togas made from hotel bed sheets to the President's Reception, the pure zest for life to be found on every page is nothing short of contagious. However, like most good humorists, Stephanie is never too sentimental. Reading this book is not going to change your life, she warns readers in her punchy introduction. That's bullshit. That may be true, but You Can't Make This Sh!t Up will undoubtedly compel you to see your own life in a new light. Maybe you want to dream bigger, let go of some past regrets, or just know when to say no. Wherever you may be in your journey on this wild and precious planet, be prepared for this book to uncover your own inner badass along the way.
