Valuable concepts on relating to one's self

I enjoyed the clear content the author explains about how to better manage one's own self-talk and manage relationships.

Great book

Really good content, not something I’ve read before and very helpful in my trauma healing. I don’t love the narration though, it’s a little stiff and unnatural.

Direct and Discernable Information with Depth

This is such a useful book for application. I tend to get lost in the complexity of self-help information. This one had an inclusive foundation that can be applied to everyone, while honoring differences among us. Love this author's work. She's exquisitely reflective in her writing.

Great Read!

I really enjoyed this book. I think she should have changed the order of how it’s written but my favorite part of the book was the middle to end. I feel like this book is great for everyone to read.

Super clear psychology

Elaine is not just a genious, but also generous by sharing ideas that has the power to make many break free from medications. Since the book uses many high level ideas it took me a while to see Elaine loves to keep things to common sense. Something that today should be called rare sense.

Great book for couple

I really enjoyed the bike by opening my eyes to a new world I’m linking in ranking

A lot of helpful information

This book digs into the different personas inside you and really helps you understand why and how you undervalue yourself. It also provides steps you can take to begin to heal. In order to do the assignments it is helpful to also have a paper copy or the e-book.

Life Changing!

I am sooo grateful for this book! It has absolutely changed me and made me more aware of why I act and did the things I used to do. Everyone I recommended this book to thanks me, tells me how their brain has been rewired and how much more sure of themselves they are. Definitely a great read for EVERYONE! I am excited to see where I take myself now that the persecuting and critical voice in my head is virtually non existent!

Brilliant book!

I can honestly say that this book has transformed my life. I understood a lot about myself, tactics that I had been inadvertently using to sabotage myself.

I think every one should learn about the linking/ranking concept and protector/ persecutor reflex.

Would highly recommend it.

Love this book

I loved every chapter in this book. In fact, I listened to it again right after the first time, just so I could hear the plethora of information offered in each one, and I probably will listen again. It’s a wealth of information & advice on a subject that is very close to me.
