The goal isn't to be sober. The goal is to love yourself so much you don't need to drink. For decades we have been sold the idea that alcohol is our 'reward' at the end of a busy day. We use it to celebrate and commiserate, for self-care and socialising, and to relieve the stress of the daily grind. But alcohol affects our physical and mental wellbeing in ways we don't even realise. It negatively impacts our sleep, anxiety levels, weight and skin, not to mention our mood and mindset. If you can't remember when you last felt energised, optimistic or motivated, you are not alone.

In this ground-breaking book, Gillian Anderson collects and introduces the anonymous sexual fantasies of hundreds of women from around the world (along with her own anonymous fantasy). The fantasies are extraordinary: they are full of desire, fear, intimacy, shame, satisfaction and, ultimately, liberation.
