But, I thought this book was so well done with such great insites and suggestions. Love the reading of this and everything was so thoughtful. If you're going through a rough, toxic relationship, I would highly recommend this book. This could help you as much as it has helped me.

Clear, Eye-Opening, and Deeply Validating

This audiobook hit me harder than I expected—it helped me see just how much I’d normalized certain red flags in past relationships. I appreciated how it broke things down without ever sounding preachy, especially the parts on financial toxicity and self-gaslighting. The metaphors made the behaviors click in a way that stuck.

I know the pain of questioning your worth and doubting if you'll ever feel whole again. This is a compassionate, no nonsense guide that helps you see red flags clearly and reclaim your self worth. It's got empowering insights and cool strategies and shows you that breaking free can be the gateway to peace, healing and the life you've been waiting for.

It's your life

I often hear and see it on the news or around me. It was hard to understand when I saw that a husband or wife could be physically or mentally abused and violent towards the other person and still not get out through divorce. Why can't they leave when they're going through that? Is that why this book talks about toxic relationships? This book is well-organized, presenting complex reasons, the characteristics of the situation, the fear of what to do after a breakup, and the tips, methods, and advice needed for navigating any toxic relationship. I am confident that this book will be of great help to all those who want to take their first steps toward a new, pleased life and find true love. It's your life.
