Crave less approval, savour more life: a bold guide to appetite, identity and freedom.
Too loud. Too emotional. Too ambitious. Too… powerful?
What happens when you stop dimming your light and dare to shine?
Beyond Palatable is a manifesto for women who are done shrinking. For too long, we’ve been told to smooth our edges, soften our voices, and contort ourselves into versions of ‘good’ that leave us cut off from our true power. Sophie Lee calls time on bending to societal norms and exposes the lies that keep women small, compliant and exhausted.
Through somatic wisdom (a field that emphasises body awareness and mindful movement for wellbeing), cultural critique and practical tools, she shows readers how to unpick their stories, disrupt the systems that silence them, and remember who the f*ck they are.
Raw, unfiltered and unapologetically honest, Beyond Palatable is both a personal reckoning and a cultural intervention. It’s a book for every woman who has ever asked: Am I too much? Not enough? Too complicated to be loved as I am?
The truth is, you are more powerful than you’ve been led to believe.
