This book was recommended in te meeting I attended yesterday morning. As a people pleaser, it interested me immediately and I bought it on Audible. With all the books I’m trying to read, and only so many hours in a day, listening to some of them in the car makes it easier to get through them all. Within the first five minutes of listening, I was hooked. Everything she was saying related to my life. She was in my head, and I couldn’t wait to hear more about the tools the book teaches.
It’s so difficult for me to not waste my energy trying to control things out of my control. I was thinking about the First Step as I listened to the book. It reminded me of the list of things I am powerless against I wrote for this step. My life became unmanageable because I was completely frustrated by what I couldn’t control. I drank to forget and numb myself to the feelings and emotions I had over this. Pretty ironic that my outlet became #1 on the list of things I couldn’t control. I’m excited and looking forward to listening to the rest of this book!
