A fantastic journey of self discovery. loved it! Ashleigh's journey is one for both men and women.

Really much deeper and more meaningful than I was expecting

I actually didn’t know what this book was about until I started to listen. As I listened, I assumed it would be a somewhat one dimensional story of alternate lifestyles, but the journey of self discovery, personal growth, and ultimately transformation was very inspiring. I really exceptional book!

Mix of relationship, personal development, and swing culture

While somewhat misleading, the book had some very insightful concepts of developing yourself and understanding your relationship with the culture around you.

Such an authentic soul!

This was an amazing journey that she shared. You’re a powerhouse, keep it up. It was very inspiring to me.
