What I learned: The biggest thing I learned from the book Warrior Princess by Kristin Beck was that in order to be truly happy you can’t hide who you are or who you want to be. Kristin Beck does an amazing job of teaching this by giving the readers insight to how her life went while she was trying to hide her feelings and urges to be a women. Through reading about Kristin and her life it made me realize that someones the people in your life that make you the happiest and that you want to accept you can’t always put their views aside and understand why you do the things you do to make yourself happy.

Kristin is a prime example of someone who knew what she wanted, she went after it, and eventually after years of struggling was about to become the woman she always wanted to be. Another thing that was valuable to me was how dedicated Kristin was with everything she did. Kristin made it through 20 years as a Navy SEAL with her inner woman just begging to get out, and if that's not true dedication than I don’t know what is. Even from day one of joining the Navy SEALS she always gave 110% and never slowed down. Not only was Kristin dedicated to the Navy SEAL's but she was also dedicated in becoming the woman she always longed to be. Though her family didn’t approve and treated her very poorly she still pushed on and
