Summary |
"A simple question, isn't it? So why does it feel so hard to answer? What's happening behind our smiles, our busyness, our to-do lists? It's time to sit with all the questions we've been avoiding, ignoring, or just not hearing, to find a path to something real. Crack open this spine and get ready. We're about to get really honest. Because this book? It's not about my truth, it's about yours." -- Back cover. |
