Description
We know there are certain things we must have to survive-food, shelter, and safety to name a few. But there are also aspects of life that truly allow us to be joyful and fulfilled. For popular podcaster and bestselling author Annie F. Downs, fun is close to the top of that list. Few would argue that having fun doesn't enrich our lives, but so much gets in the way of prioritizing it. Tough days, busyness, and feelings that are hard to talk about keep us from the fun that's out there waiting to be found. With That Sounds Fun, Annie offers an irresistible invitation to understand the meaning of fun, to embrace it and chase it, and to figure out what, exactly, sounds fun to you-then do it! Exploring some research and sharing some thoughts behind why fun matters, she shows you how to find, experience, and multiply your fun. With her signature storytelling style and whimsical vulnerability, Annie is the friend we all need to guide us back to staying true to ourselves and finding the fun we need. Contains content exclusive to the audiobook.

      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Annie F. Downs gives a smile-worthy performance filled with exuberance as she encourages listeners to reclaim what brings them joy. Downs believes we have lost the foundation of our lives that once allowed us to have real fun. Here, with intoxicating honesty and enthusiasm, she shares her journey to rediscover "Eden." Downs's big voice has a raspy quality that highlights her laughter and deep affection as she discusses a plethora of topics, including the joys of being an amateur, fear, Dolly Parton, and tattoos. There is an all-encompassing warmth in her stories that embraces the largeness of life and her absolute love for her family, friends, and God. This is a listening experience that is spirited, inspiring, and so much fun. M.F. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
