This book is about radical self love - what it is, why it’s important, and how you can work towards practising it. It is also about reflecting on your thoughts and actions. It’s also a collection of academic research, personal experiences and the experiences of Taylor’s students/clients. Taylor provides you with a toolkit to do the self love work within yourself. 

I really enjoyed reading this. I listened to the audiobook and I loved that it was narrator by the author. I prefer audiobooks of nonfiction, especially educative ones like this, because it feels like having an actual conversation with the author! This book gave me a lot to think about, it added to my perspectives, and made me reassess my own biases. That’s exactly what I wanted from it! This is definitely one I’ll be rereading multiple times.
