"By the time Lu Ann Cahn hit her mid-fifties, she had successfully raised her child, built a career as an award-winning reporter and television personality, nurtured and maintained a happy marriage, and overcome breast cancer. So why was she feeling so stuck? Everything in her life pointed to achievement and success and yet she couldn't drum up enthusiasm for the road stretching out before her. Frustrated (and with a nudge from her daughter), Cahn dared herself to get out of her rut. The challenge was set. The taskmaster would be a blog that must be fed every day. And the goal was to try something new every day for a year. While still tending to her everyday responsibilities, Cahn found herself transformed by simply taking one small step each day into unfamiliar territory. What began as a whimsical challenge ended up dramatically changing her outlook and brought her unexpected experiences, new friends, fresh skills, and, most significantly, a genuine enthusiasm for each new day. Accessible, motivational, and encouraging, I Dare Me is the story of Lu Ann's journey. But it's also a road map for a journey of your own--an inspiring read that will challenge you to step outside of your comfort zone and dare yourself to open up to newness"--Jacket.
