When you choose to become unfiltered and unafraid, your life will change.

Looking at Rachel Luna today, you would never guess what she has been through. Both her parents died from AIDS, she survived a cancer diagnosis that upended her life, and she served for a decade in the United States Marine Corps. However, with every challenging experience, Rachel noticed herself becoming a more watered-down version of her true self, questioning her every thought, decision, and action, and filtering each through the expectations of other people. She finally had a revelation: her life would stay the same until she became radically honest with herself and others.

In Permission to Offend, certified master coach Rachel Luna reveals her β€œPermission Slips” for living in truth, faith, freedom, and abundance. She delivers actionable steps for ending validation addiction, recognising your values and anchoring your life in them, defining your beliefs, accepting rejection, and activating your truth. Rachel introduces her Offender Identity Framework so you can get more of what you want without losing what matters most.

If you have ever wondered what it would feel like to live completely unfettered by the opinions and judgements of others, Permission to Offend is for you. It’s time for you to step out of the corner and into the light.

This book will show you how.
