She observed a majestic female cheetah tamed by her keepers and trained to chase a stuffed animal around her pen. Doyle’s Inspiration: The Cheetahĭoyle’s inspiration for the book came when she took a trip to the zoo with her family. To be free from this captivity, Doyle had to learn how to break society’s rules, upend cultural expectations, and rebuild her life based on her emotion, intuition, and imagination.
Introduction: Captivity and the Pathways to Freedomįor much of her life, Glennon Doyle has felt like a wild animal in captivity-conditioned not to feel, think, or trust herself. Doyle wants her readers to use her story as a framework to examine their lives and deconstruct societal expectations, thereby liberating themselves from the metaphorical captivity that limits their potential. Her book is an intimate memoir-telling her personal story of addiction and rehab, falling in love with a woman, leaving her marriage, and rebuilding her family-and a call to action. In Untamed, speaker, author, and activist Glennon Doyle explores how she freed herself from the strictures of society and embraced her true identity by rejecting the expectations and limitations society imposes on women.
