Summary
 Have you ever looked to social media for life inspiration and thought: that looks great, but nothing online remotely relates to my chaotic life? Why would you, when so often the people giving advice are leading these seemingly perfect lives, with their picture-perfect homes and morning routines? They have their lives together and don't remotely resemble your own hot mess of a life.

Enter Steph Pase, the go-to girl for all things home life, motherhood, health and fitness. And she's the first to admit: she's a hot mess too. She's also scatterbrained, a bit lazy and can't throw a ball to save her life. So how did this former messy girl-next-door become renowned for cleaning routines, home hacks, organization tips and successful entrepreneurship? It's a story far from anything you'd expect.

In this candid, vulnerable and revealing memoir, Steph chronicles the key moments in her life that led her to become the powerhouse woman she is today. From a chaotic childhood battling schoolyard bullying, anxiety and an ADHD diagnosis (for a girl in the 1990s, that was almost unheard of), to binge drinking, eating disorders, and, eventually, starting a successful business from her garage with a baby strapped to her chest, Steph's journey from chaos to clarity continues to this day.

With a vulnerable, confessional writing style, Steph tells stories that will have you sobbing one minute and snort-laughing the next. Filled with actionable advice throughout, this is not just another mummy memoir - it's a story of perseverance, growth, overcoming obstacles and learning how to live your best life using the most reliable tool at your disposal: YOURSELF.

I feel like Steph has written a book about my life, maybe some small details are different but I could totally relate. This book will change your life if your brain won’t allow you to be organized, motivated and focus. The 21st century is draining the life from us and Steph gives us the solution. This book is my bible. Thank you Steph

Where has this book been all my life

Steph had me laughing out loud, then suddenly crying, and then just sitting there feeling completely understood. It’s one of those books where you keep thinking, “Oh wow… she gets it.”

The way she talks about growing up with ADD and having to figure things out on her own really hit home for me. It made me feel so much less alone and reminded me I’m not crazy for thinking and feeling the way I do.

I listened to the audiobook while driving to work and while making lunch boxes at night, and it was amazing. Hearing Steph tell her own story just made everything even more real. She has this way of making you feel like you’re talking to a friend — the same vibe she has with her community, just genuine and down-to-earth.

It’s funny, emotional, comforting, and so relatable. If you’ve ever felt a bit messy or misunderstood, this book will absolutely speak to you.

Highly recommend — it’s a big warm hug in book form.

Mastering My Messy Life was honestly incredible.
