Publisher Description
Jill Sherer Murray lived in a dead-end relationship into her forties before she finally let it go. She was like millions of women who struggle with whether to stay in a loveless marriage, a bad relationship, or give up on dating altogether, believing love isn’t in the cards. You may be struggling with a similar decision yourself. Perhaps you’re terrified of being single, and yet you don’t truly feel you’re living the life you want.
With warmth and honesty, Murray shows you how letting go—of feeling stuck, afraid, and alone, and of believing what you’ve got is all you deserve—can free you from a life that isn’t serving you. She knows this is true, because she did it herself—and ultimately attracted the love and life she wanted. Through her story, other women’s stories, surprising facts and statistics, and helpful exercises, Big Wild Love will show you the way back to the self you’ve lost. It will put you on the path to change and teach you that, wherever you are, it’s never too late to start anew and find the Big Wild Love you deserve.

Journalist and life coach Murray's excellent debut provides women a road map for personal growth, development, and pursuit of romantic love. Murray believes the foundations of growth are self-love and managing one's "vicious" inner voice. "Change your limiting beliefs, change everything," she counsels, and notes that it's impossible to attract or enjoy romantic love without first loving oneself. Her method of "big wild love" requires a deliberate, intentional approach to taking care of oneself, and understanding that at everyone's core is a set of beliefs that can both define and derail one's pursuit of love. She explains how engaging in self-exploration and uncovering beliefs (conscious and unconscious) about love can lead to happily ever after, explaining that feeling "deserved to be loved" is the key to finding the right partner. She also provides helpful questionnaires and advice for responding to relationship disharmony (such as the "Two Day Relationship Detox" plan). With an empathetic tone, Murray demonstrates that the best way of dealing with uncertainty is simply to own it. Her empowering guide will be ideal for fans of Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way.
