Would you dare hug a stranger at the grocery check-out?
And if you continued to hug strangers for 365 days, how might it change you?
Melinda Lee did just that, spending a year hugging everyone she encountered-family, friends, strangers, no one was off limits. But in the quest to prove that everyone is worthy of love and belongingness, she found herself questioning her own.
Rebel Hugger tells the story of Melinda's first hug journey, complete with the soul-rocking questions that followed, and a second journey that would take her cross-country to hug and stay with strangers. What happened in between and after is a funny, relatable deep dive into the way women struggle with low self-esteem and substitute people-pleasing for developing healthy boundaries.
Melinda explores life across America, makes unlikely friends, encounters stranger danger, and challenges what we think we know about the human condition. You'll come out the other side feeling love for your fellow humans and ready to embrace your own sense of self-worth.
Reading this memoir is like being wrapped in a comforting hug-one that empowers you to believe in yourself just a little bit more. Download your copy today.
