In the world of Self Help, a genre to which Americans are peculiarly addicted, Rachel Hollis is suddenly ascendant her diminutive figure bolstered in 6 inch heels, her flawlessly high lighted hair extensions framing her bright, inviting smile. She is the with it cream at the very top of an already fulsome pitcher. Her enthusiastic Girl, You Can Do It inspires millions of women to reach deep into their pockets and plunk down their money with a restless hope. Whether they wash their faces and take their lives unapologetically into their own hands or not, her message of self actualization and self improvement is hitting the discontented, anxious, middle class suburban woman like a tuning fork just the right note and just the right moment. Unhappily though in a gospel of radical independence Hollis casts a this worldly vision, a utopia contingent upon the actions and motivations of the individual.
