how does one speak about this book? i need to gather my thoughts. it’s definitely a lot better than the body keeps the score.
“it’s not the fights that matter. it’s the repairs” i love this way of reframing conflict.
there’s so many parts i’ve had to sit back and reflect on but for now i’ll just give that line.
so vulnerable and informative yet heartbreaking in less than 300 pages
i just wish i had a physical copy (which i will be purchasing) so i could add in my notes. very validating. love the tools she mentioned to help people in similar positions or on their own healing journey. love that she got the help she needed! i might be biased for giving it 5 stars given it’s my area of interest but it was so good! i’d recommend to anyone and everyone just to see a refreshing yet blunt perspective
full review may be written once i have a copy of my own
