Critic reviews

The book's great. It's real, it's authentic . . . Very practical and very, very helpful (Lorraine Kelly)
I'm blown away by her ability to communicate difficult ideas with ease, simplicity and practicality. Amazing. Go and buy it now! (Jay Shetty)
Such a brilliant book (Steven Bartlett)
It's so engaging that it's even led me to switch off my phone for several hours so I can read it, and in this social media-obsessed age, I don't think I can give a bigger recommendation than that (Bryony Gordon)
Very helpful (BBC Radio 2)

absolutely brilliant

I wouldn't say I'm a person who particularly struggles with my mental health. However my partner does and this has helped me, help her I've also told her she must listen. Has so many great insights can't recommend it enough (the PDF can be found in the chapters section on Audible) and for the PDF I can only assume they're images in the book and for that reason if they're something you'd like to pay more interest to I'd recommend getting the physical Book or Kindle version.

Jesus that was helpful.

Honestly helpful. It's like counselling without someone looking at you as you think.
