This book really spoke to me. After a couple of my own blindsides (Thankfully none worthy of media attention) I had come to many of the same conclusions, so Leigh Sales really spoke to my own confirmation bias. There was quite a bit that she researched that I hadn't and I was surprised to learn that some quirks of thinking that we all go through when something blindsides us have been documented in the research.
I found it really interesting not only reading about what some of those people have gone through in their very public blindsides and the way they coped but also I found it interesting reading about the professionals who were the best help to them and hearing directly from them and how they assist people the best and be there for them in their worst times.
Such an excellent book. Underlined many bits and will be recommending this to everyone I can. Although they may have to get their own copy because I intend to read this again and again.
