Women Living Deliciously

In this illustrated guide, Florence Given encourages women to rediscover joy, reject toxic wellness culture, and redefine feminism on their own terms. The book addresses how shame, perfectionism, and self-objectification—rooted in patriarchal systems—have buried women's sense of awe and wonder. Given examines how women have internalized the belief that their bodies exist to be observed rather than inhabited, and how this has led to suppressing self-expression and distrusting their own desires. Women Living Deliciously identifies barriers that prevent women from accessing joy and offers a path toward claiming the life available to them now—not in an imagined future or when circumstances change. The book aims to restore a sense of agency and encourage women to move toward a more expansive life.
