That's Bold of You: How To Thrive as Your Most Vibrant, Weird, and Real Self
From best-selling author and podcaster Case Kenny…
Have you ever been called “too much” or told to “be realistic?” Do you exude a passion for life that makes you feel misunderstood, weird, or out of place?
That’s Bold of You is a call to unlearn the labels society has put on you - difficult, sensitive, intimidating, crazy, too loud, too quiet, too independent, etc. - and embrace being your own version of “too much.” That’s the part of you that speaks loud and clear to your uniqueness and your willingness to express who you are. It’s the source of your self esteem, your individuality, your standards, and what brings you joy… and it’s time to reclaim its power. It’s time to say goodbye to “sorry” and pressure to conform, and, instead, emphatically embrace what makes you different and bold.
It’s time to let go of who you’re
… the labels that don’t define you
… your past and the weight it carries
… the timelines given to you
… expectations of who you’re supposed to be
… pressure to be “normal”
… so you can embrace who you really are.
That’s Bold of You presents a mix of Case Kenny’s signature mindfulness alongside science-backed research to help you let go of self-judgment and harness your boldest energy in all facets of life. Kenny is best known for his podcast New Mindset, Who Dis where he approaches life and love through the lens of simple, no BS mindfulness. He draws from his life experiences and what he calls “logical mindfulness” where he encourages listeners/readers to find proof of their “why” from life experiences. His podcast is a 5-year running top 25 podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify and his quotes/affirmations gained viral popularity driven by support from celebrity voices like Hailey Bieber, Lucy Hale, and Viola Davis and media outlets The Today Show and Good Morning America.

COULDN’T PUT IT DOWN!!!!
I was scrolling on IG one day and kept seeing quotes from this book pop up on my discover page. The more they showed up, the more I kept resonating with them. So I hit the bullet and purchased “That’s Bold of You”. Truly one of the best decisions I could have ever made as a reader.
I could not put the book down. I had my pretty pink hi-liter to go because I was ready. More so, this book threw me a whole new perspective on life and my mindset. As someone who suffers from BPD(bi-polar), manically moved across the country in the beginning of the year and then to move back.
This book helped pull me out of a hole I never thought I’d mentally get out of.
If you’re ready to change your mindset, your life, your outlook. Read this book. WARNING- it’s a page turner and something you’re going to want to pause everything for so you can read it in one sitting.
Can’t wait to read more!

Powerful and important messages throughout
This was the perfect book to start my new year with! I never say this because I have a very long to-be-read pile, but I know I will be reading this book again.

While this book may not be for absolutely everyone, I freaking loved it. It was EXACTLY what I needed. I often feel like the weirdo in the group and this felt like having the most optimistic, hype-man bestie cheering me on page after page. I felt GOOD while reading this… it does help me to look at some things differently and now I’m really looking forward to reading his other stuff.
It’s honestly hard to comprehend how much insight and wisdom pours out of a guy who is so young… he’s definitely an old soul and I’d say he’s definitely found his calling. ❤️
Highly recommend.

10/10! Love this book. I’ve been listening to case Kenny’s podcasts for over a year now and he announced how this book was 40% off on Amazon so u had to get it. Here are some takeaways:
• your mindset is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make in life. Whether you believe the world conspires to be for you or against you is a decision that will guide your life’s course and daily interactions.
• instead of manifesting through adjectives, we should be manifesting through VERBS and action
• comparison is the thief of joy. Studies show 10% of the brain is spent comparing itself to other people. That means 10% of our discontent is from comparison, often from perception or assumption of other people’s lives on the internet. Everyone is going through something
Really enjoyed this book and there was so much more in it but def recommend. ⭐️

I bought the kindle version of this book and started reading but I had to return it immediately to get my money back. The content might be good for social media but should not be b a book. It is not worth the money

Here is my reflection and review of the final pages of Case's masterpiece. The biggest lesson of all today was about loneliness. When we are lonely it means we are living our honest truths. It doesn’t mean we are unworthy. Experiences are merely experiences they don’t define our identity or self-worth. Experiences are always there to teach us something. In many cases, it means a redirection of ones course or path- living honestly, being bold— you will find those who connect to you on a soulful level. Being lonely although it sucks, not lowering your standards or becoming part of the mob is brave and beautiful. Keep being authentic. Today I feel this positive energy radiating within and out of me. I feel that I’m living in the present moment. I have forgiven, I hold no negative energy or grudges towards others who have harmed me. I have let go of all of it. As it flows down a river on a different journey, I have a new journey. One filled with positivity, new experiences, love for myself, others and the world. I feel at peace. I no longer have to feel those things I felt. Thank you Case for everything, this book has helped me in many ways. I am so grateful.

Pienso que es un libro poco convencional -en el buen sentido-, porque rompe esquemas concernientes a la auto ayuda y te lleva a un grado de introspeccion muy importante. Lo recomiendo muchisimo, lo agarré cada ratito que pude.

Good insight but repetitive.
“Life has to be loved moving forward but can only be understood looking back.”
“People feel happier when they have more variety in their daily routines, when they go to novel places and have a wider array of experiences.”

I found this book to be like a pep talk from a trusted friend or an amazing leader. I did struggle with the writing style at first, as it reads like a transcripted podcast or interview. However, once I got past the informal writing and organization, I began to enjoy the content. I believe this book is a winner for anyone who is seeking inspiration and opportunities to shift their mindset. Personally, I would definitely read this book again and explore other titles from this author.
