About this listen
The instant Sunday Times best seller from the star of Netflix's The Duchess, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Your Face or Mine and host of All That Glitters.
I've come to accept that being audacious is a gift I can't escape.
People 'know' my on-stage comedy persona or my scripted ballsy characters and wrongly assume that at home, I must stomp around all day in designer dresses eviscerating those who dare to cross my path and denouncing the existence of men in general. But mostly, I'm just sat eating pickles and being nice to some dogs.
Whatever strangers think of me is fine with me. How audacious is that? I can always take a joke, I don't waste time worrying about things I can't control and I have zero anxiety. I embrace the reality that you just can't please everyone, so you might as well put yourself out there and have a laugh. As my mother always said, 'Katherine, if we all liked the same thing, we'd all be married to your father'.
I'm often asked how I developed my lurid level of courage and assurance and for tips on how others can match. The Audacity is my chance to share my blueprint for just that. You will learn:
- How to become the most popular girl in school.
- How to waste all your money on designer dogs.
- How to attract toxic men...and keep them interested!
And so much more.... Plus, secrets! Secrets are my favourite things to be told and I figured I'd better tell a few juicy ones myself. Why not? No matter what I do, there will always be something about me that reads as simply, outrageously audacious. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
As if that wasn't enough, this audiobook includes exclusive content from my mum, Julie McCarthy. It's amazing. It's like a book within the audiobook.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A fun biography
It was a really enjoyable listen, Katherine's voice is easy on the ears. The book itself is a light and fun recollection of her life so far, the chapters are really snappy and fly by. Katherine has led an interesting life and you can see how her personality has been fashioned from her childhood. Also, randomly, alot of good baby tips in here. The only disappointments for me are that she clearly has an issue with people in age gap relationships (apart from her mum's which she's ok with) and the bonus material at the end by her mum. I enjoyed listening to her giving her perspective on all the main topics of the book, but every time she mentioned her daughter it would always sound like she was master of ceremonies and introducing her into a concert or something (my beautiful, intelligent, charismatic, charming, successful, skilled daughter etc), it's sweet but after the first couple of times it grates!
All in, a very good book, read incredibly well. Katherine's Canadian accent but with all the classic UK slang words is fun to hear.

love love love
A funny, familiar and frank life story. I'm glad I had it on audio , hearing the author talk about their own lives is always so much better than reading it.

awsome
I loved this book. Katherine is hilarious, honest. It brings out every emotion within the listener.
I completely agree with her style of feminism and her ability to be tough with whining. it's so well read.

Simply wonderful
After binge listening to her podcast over Christmas I've become a big fan, this book is a must listen so insightful. The narration is perfect so glad I didn't read it instead. The extra from her mother was an excellent touch and offered a different side to certain situations, I wish it had been longer. I will almost certainly listen to this again very soon.
