"Lincee Ray is funny. Really funny. By the end of this book, you'll think of Lincee as a favorite friend: someone who shoots straight, finds the funny in every situation, and reminds you what matters most. You are in for a treat!"-- Sophie Hudson , author of Giddy Up, Eunice and cohost of The Big Boo Cast podcast Insecurity. As women, we all struggle with it. Our skinny jeans mock us. Our age-defying serums with flecks of gold refuse to erase our crow's feet. Our social media feeds taunt us with everyone else's picture-perfect lives. If you've ever felt uninteresting, unlovable, or unattractive, you're ready for Lincee Ray's particular brand of hilarious (and hard-hitting) self-reflection. Like a trustworthy friend, she shows us that the fastest way to happiness is to embrace ourselves in all our imperfection and trust that God knew what He was doing when He made us. From maneuvering the muffin top to navigating the sketchy waters of singleness to walking the judgmental halls of the workplace, Lincee's laugh-out-loud look at real life reveals many of the key truths she's learned about her identity:Yoga pants are your friend, Jesus sees you, and green-bean diets are never the answer."Lincee is a brilliant writer. She once described me as 'smelling of worn leather, a vintage nine iron and swagger.' She pretty much nailed it. She is definitely worthy of the final rose."-- Chris Harrison , host of ABC's Bachelor franchise and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

An active speaker, she can be found at her popular website ihategreenbeans.com, where she makes it clear that she believes it's important to tell your story--even if it makes you seem a little crazy.
