Helpful Score: 3
This is one of the best self-help books I have seen in the history of self-help books.
She has expanded definitions of words we take for granted, that we have preconceived notions about. Then she offers an expanded idea, and suggestions for self-help.

The author also has a TED talk available on YouTube.

There is some good information in this book. However, much of it comes from a very negative place. I don't like to dwell on the negative. Didn't finish reading it.

A reminder of positive behaviors such as authenticity, self-compassion, resilience, and gratitude to encompass "wholehearted" living and a description of author's personal journey through this process from researcher Dr. Brene Brown.
