Inspiring Book - Surviving & thriving through all the seasons of life by Lydia
Congratulations Lydia - I couldn't put this book down!Yesterday I collected my Evergreen book from Waterstones a day before the official release and last night I wasn’t able to put the book down, it is FANTASTIC! Better than I ever expected and I already had high expectations. I have also ordered the audio version on Audible to listen to while walking. Lydia pours everything into the book about her own personal experiences and how walking in nature has really helped her survive and thrive.I have been following Lydia's journey since the early days of her YouTube channel and I first stumbled upon her fashion content after my sister had passed away. In times of grief Lydia's content was a source of inspiration and comfort, she wasn’t just sharing her style tips but also much of her life which is no easy task. Over the years Lydia's style, content and tastes have evolved and continued to inspire me especially the seasonal content which she shares in this book. I have seen Lydia go through much controversy, hate and online bullying over the years and found it horrendous and often wondered how Lydia coped through it all. I recently read Steven Bartlett's book Diary of a CEO and he says something along the lines of 80% of people won't like you and 20% will and that is ok. You have to stand for what you believe in and won't please everyone and that’s a good thing.The book is a triumph and a true walk with Lydia through the seasons as she offers advice on how to live your best life, take inspiration from your surroundings and thrive through the highs and the lows.What a marvellous read and even the lady on the counter in Waterstones said - wow that is a pretty book!Buy it!!! Lydia I am already awaiting your next book - Thank you for sharing your journey and wisdom with us.

Why I loved this book
I was not sure what to expect, but if you are someone who like Lydia’s current content, you will love this book. It’s well written, comforting and inspirational. It gives you a warm hug right where you are in your life.It’s a tiny bit about her career, our connection to nature, managing loss and grief, cultivating joy and gaining strength through ever changing seasons.I’m in digital media, and I was delighted not to be pitched or sold nor did I feel this was a “funnel” of any kind.Thank you Lydia for sharing your authenticity and passions with us. I know I grew from reading this wonderful book. 🙏 I’ll be reading/listening to it again.
