Too loud. Too emotional. Too ambitious. Too… powerfu? hat happens when you stop dimming your light and dare to shin? eyond 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 a? he truth is, you are more powerful than you’ve been led to believe. I spent most of my life thinking there was something deeply wrong with me. So, I sought validation and constantly outsourced my sense of worthiness to others. It was only when I started doing the real work that I realised the lies we are told to keep us small and compliant, and the ways they destroy our lives. I watched incredible women apologise for themselves in every moment. This isn’t just a me thing, I realised. This is endemic; we’ve all just got really good at pretending. This is for all of the women who have shrunk themselves to fit in. For us, our younger selves and the girls who are growing up in a world of filters, loud expectations and conflicting messages about what it means to be a woman.
