Tired of the same old self-help crap that tells you to "be brave" without showing you what that actually looks like?
Meet Fearless: Hilarious and Horrible Stories from an Absurd Life Spent in the Woods by Alison Monda-a roller-coaster memoir packed with near-death experiences, terrible decisions, ridiculous adventures, and an unapologetic refusal to live by other people's expectations.
A local firefighter, search-and-rescue expert, climber, and extreme backpacker, Monda doesn't just write about pushing limits-she has spent her life testing them.
From backpacking the Pacific Crest Trail and Te Araroa to staring down grizzlies and sharks, engaging in a sword fight at her own wedding, and surviving a cyclone alone in the wilderness while wearing a skirt, Monda's adventures are equal parts terrifying and absurd.
But Fearless isn't just an adrenaline-fueled adventure story.
Through brutally honest reflections and wildly self-deprecating humor, Monda explores what it means to face fear instead of running from it. Her message is simple: freedom doesn't come from eliminating fear. It comes from deciding that fear doesn't get to make your decisions for you.
Forget waiting for permission. Forget trying to fit into someone else's idea of who you're supposed to be. And forget taking yourself so seriously.
Fearless is a celebration of mistakes, adventure, resilience, and becoming comfortable in your own skin-because, as Monda puts it, wearing someone else's will land you in prison. Funny, outrageous, and unexpectedly empowering, Fearless is for anyone who has ever felt like they're supposed to play it safe, anyone who's ever wondered what would happen if they stopped caring what other people thought, and anyone who would rather laugh their way through the terrifying business of being alive.
Come for the grizzlies, sharks, cyclones, and questionable life choices.
Stay for the reminder that you don't need to be fearless to live fearlessly.

Über den Autor
Since fourth grade, Monda has backpacked all over the United States and New Zealand, sharing her photos and outlandish stories on her Instagram account [...]-round, Monda works as a team member of Olympic Mountain Rescue, with a mission dedicated to backcountry rescue and mountain safety education. She also volunteers with Northwest Wilderness Programs, a nonprofit that provides experiences at a hot spring in a cave deep in the [...] didn't always enjoy this much time off to adventure. At age ten, she wanted to be a child actress, and over the years, she worked in film and theater, appearing on stages all over the Pacific Northwest. She didn't want to sleep with directors, however, and preferred meals of bacon and Oreos to Barbie-size salads, so she buried her Hollywood hopes six feet under, next to her dignity and high heels that gave her bunions.Naturally, the next step for an actress was a competitive career in firefighting, so she drew a mustache over her lip, gained weight, and never looked back. She works as a structural and wildland firefighter/EMT, mentoring young women and pulling a twenty-four-hour schedule that allows for extended time off to explore her passion for backpacking and writing. Her goal for her book is to inspire the reader to be authentic, laugh at their mistakes, and challenge themselves.
