Live Learn Love Well - by Emma Lovewell (Hardcover)

About the Book

"A memoir chronicling one woman's incredible journey to physical--and mental--fitness that will give readers an inside look at the hardships, heartbreaks, and trials she overcame to become a beloved Peloton instructor and an inspiration to people everywhere. Emma Lovewell is one of the star instructors for the fitness phenomenon Peloton, but her story is so much more than that--and it's a story she can't wait to share with her legions of fans. Emma's journey to success began with a simple realization: that change is inevitable, but growth is optional--and she chose to grow. In this book, Emma shares the moments in her life that inspired her to become the woman she is today--from growing up impoverished in the midst of Martha's Vineyard's affluence, to being one of the few students of color in her community, to struggling with her biracial identity, never feeling as though she fit in well enough with either the white community or the Asian American community, to moving to New York and striving to make a career in dance and fitness. And much in the same way that Emma is more than just a fitness instructor, she's learned that fitness is more than just a physical condition. Emma also shares the moments that her mental fortitude was even more important than her physical fortitude--touching on subjects like her mother's cancer diagnosis, past unhappy relationships, and finally understanding the importance of being kind to herself and surrounding herself with good friends. This is a book for anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed by their current situation, who feels that there is too much they need to change to even get started. Emma's own journey, along with her easy-to-initiate tips, will give readers the confidence to know that even the smallest changes can have truly outsize impacts on their lives and happiness"--

Book Synopsis

A memoir chronicling Emma Lovewell's incredible path to physical―and mental―fitness that traces her journey to becoming a beloved Peloton instructor and inspires readers to live, learn, and love well

Emma Lovewell is a star instructor at Peloton, a global fitness brand and media content company, but her journey to success began with a simple realization: Change is inevitable, but growth is optional. She chose to grow. In Live Learn Love Well, she shares the moments in her life that shaped her into the woman she is today―from growing up in a modest home amidst the affluence of Martha's Vineyard, to struggling with her biracial identity and fitting in, both in the white community and the Asian American community, to health setbacks and relationship challenges, to moving to New York and striving for a career in dance and fitness.

Just as Lovewell is more than a fitness instructor, she's learned that wellness is more than just a physical condition. She shares the moments where mental fortitude shaped her outlook on the world and how the idea of "progress, not perfection" became a guiding principle.

Filled with surprising insights, charming anecdotes, and never-before-shared moments, Live Learn Love Well is for anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed, who worries there's too much to change to even get started, or who simply needs a little inspiration to make tomorrow better than today. Lovewell's stories, along with her easy-to-initiate tips, will give readers the confidence to know that even the smallest modifications can have truly outsized impacts on their lives and wellness.
