Spot On!

Eye opening! Everything in Geneen's book makes sense. I find myself having ah ha moments with moments of giddiness. I became to enjoy the narrator, however, miss Geneen's voice telling her own story. She's right, I have to find my own beautiful self and that won't come from trying to lose weight. I'm so inspired and motivated to keep finding my.. self and try to enjoy this journey. 💖

Pretty Good

I've found that I just like most of Geneen Roth's books. I haven't found exceptionally different information in one from another but enjoy the new form of inspiration and affirmation, as it were.

The reader is good, and gave a pretty good performance, but has an older sounding voice and speaks still as if she's reading but reading very well. But she's just not Geneen, who I mostly love listening to, inspite of her sometimes baby voice, because when she speaks, it's as though you are listening to her give a speech in person, not at all as though she's reading.

There was no story as this is non-fiction self-help, but I didn't want to give it a low-rating when really it simply doesn't apply. Audible needs to take that into account. Right now they make you rate all categories before moving on to the review portion.

Overall, I enjoyed the book and found it helpful. I may even listen to it again some time.

So reassuring

I have read a lot of Geneen’s books and they can sound similar, but this one was shorter in chapters, straight and to the point in her guidance, still had the kindness and compassion message. So grateful for all of her work. Another great read.

Good Listen

I really like the verbiage behnd this book. What I have a problem with, is the author, or the recording or her voice. There is a great meaning behind the book. There are allot of helpfull hints contained therein, if you can get past her voice and scratchy recording. I would still recommend it to anyone who has had an issue with their weight.

Hit a lot of key points

This book hit a lot of key points for me to help me understand things about myself. I like that it makes you accountable for how you want to look and feel about yourself.
