Writing style is a bit dry.

Author has some solid concepts, but unfortunately it feels like an academic journal most of the time. Would love more case studies, real world examples, and stories to illustrate the methods. Instead it’s a lot of caveats, asides, and multi-point sentences which make it feel like a training manual. The emphasis on being comfortable with ones self in order to be an effective teacher was well argued and probably my favorite takeaway. Narrator has a nice voice, but her inflections, particularly on long sentences, is distracting.
