It's easy to sleepwalk our way through life, programmed on the same stories that we grew up with. After the ages of 18-22, when most of us are finished with traditional schooling, it becomes more and more common to live life on a loop. Wake up, get dressed, go to work, sit in traffic, come home, eat, sleep. But we're meant for more than that. We're not meant to sedate ourselves with swipes and scrolls—we're meant to live colorful lives, with villains and lovers, victories and defeats, and everything in between. By writing about what we *specifically* want out of life, we're able to become the heroes of our own stories.

We are no therapists, and this workbook is no substitute for therapy, but studies show that thoughtfully writing about traumatic or uncertain events, past, present or future, are good for us across a variety of metrics both physiologically and psychologically. Written accounts of trauma positively influence your ability to process them, and written accounts of future states positively influence your ability to achieve them. James W. Pennebaker, a legendary professor of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin (and a member of the Academy of Distinguished Teachers) has linked "written narrative—that is, living our life as though we're in a story of our own creation—to significantly enhanced mental and physical health.  

Over 10,000+ women from all walks of life—boxers, weightlifters, mothers, professionals—have joined the No Prince Charming sisterhood. This workbook is just the next step in spreading our message around the world: women can write their own fairytales.
