I’m India Muñoz: published author, therapist, Army veteran, entrepreneur, and creator of The Laws of a Savage.

I believe women deserve lives that are bigger than being liked, chosen, needed, or approved of. I also believe we spend entirely too much time knowing what we need to do and talking ourselves out of actually doing it.

My work lives somewhere between psychology, lived experience, real conversation, and the occasional necessary use of profanity. I’m interested in the patterns we repeat, the excuses we make, the relationships we outgrow, the ways we abandon ourselves to keep other people comfortable, and what happens when we finally decide to do something differently.

As a therapist, I understand the value of healing, self-awareness, and understanding why we are the way we are. As a woman who has lived a whole lot of life, I also know insight alone won't change your life. Eventually, you have to make a decision.

That philosophy became The Laws of a Savage.

A savage isn't cold, cruel, or interested in proving that she doesn't need anyone. She can love deeply, show up for people, change her mind, make mistakes, and still have a soft place to land. What she stops doing is sacrificing herself for the privilege of keeping everyone else comfortable.

Through my books, essays, and other work, I write about self, relationships, business, money, boundaries, ambition, healing, and the complicated space between knowing your worth and actually living as you know it.

I’m not here to tell women who they should become. I’m much more interested in what happens when we stop asking for permission to become who we already know we are.
