Story4.5 out of 5 stars 20
Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Over the past few years, Brianna Wiest has gained renown for her deeply moving, philosophical writing. This new compilation of her published work features pieces on why you should pursue purpose over passion, embrace negative thinking, see the wisdom in daily routine, and become aware of the cognitive biases that are creating the way you see your life. Some of these pieces have never been seen; others have been read by millions of people around the world. Regardless, each will leave you thinking: This idea changed my life.

She's come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up - she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily's life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.

Beautiful
I loved this book entirely. The narrator did an awesome job. And i don’t usually find such a short book can say so much but this one was really beautiful and uplifting. I also don’t reread books very often but i think i will read this one from time to time. I recommend this book.

Disappointing
Liked the general wisdom.
Disliked repetition, same phraseology, as well as concepts, over and over ad nauseam. Wisdom now a days seems dished out like ice cream, so much so that it can be dismissive as well as misleading of the time and work of true growth. Were wisdom concepts as easy as writing about them, we would meet a lot of wise, mentally healthy, robust and flourishing people every day.
Working with people who have experienced crises, I know it can take decades to grow enough to be motivated more by love than fear, or to flourish post traumatically.
Too superficial a treatment of the human condition for me.

A keeper
This is one of those gems that make me feel like I stumbled upon a winning jackpot lottery ticket of insight & inspiration. Potentially life changing prospectives & stirs well the soul.
One I know I’ll listen to again.
Also. Excellent narrator. Very relaxing voice, & calm matter of fact expression.

Great for going through hard times
The listen was very good. she's trying to comfort and encourage after a hard breakup but can help after losing a loved one as well. Rachel Jacobs read slowly but I think she did so intentionally to help emphasize the material, and in that she did a very good job. unfortunately if you try to speed up just a bit it gets very choppy. very recommended though esp if trying to cope with difficult times.

This was just perfect for my specific pain.
It was almost eerie, feeling like this was written for me, and she was talking to me the whole time. Grateful for this work. It was affirming and felt like a therapy session.
