As an aspiring psychotherapist, this book gave me an intimate glimpse into the tender, dynamic, and evolutionary client - therapist relationship. I think anyone who appreciates raw, authentic, and deep human connection and honesty will appreciate this book. We all have unique an often painful stories and histories that we carry with us, yet it's so rare for others to learn about them and hold space for them. This book gently forces you reflect on your own life, how you're living in ways that don't align with your values, and a reminder that life is so short. If we knew we had only a few months left to live, most of us would change our priorities and behavior entirely - how can we do that NOW until waiting for our death to near?
Memorable quotes:
Page 332: "The inability to say no is largely about approval-seeking - people imagine that if they say no, they won't be loved by others. The inability to say yes, however - to intimacy, a job opportunity, an alcohol program - is more about lack of trust in one-self. Will I mess this up? Will this turn out badly? Isn't if safer to stay where I am?
