I found this at a time i really needed most. i'm an art student with fears of the future, i suffer with the grief of a best friend i lost due to an accident, and susan cain put so many of these anxieties and fears and sadness into new perspectives! i loved the guided meditations and will go back to use in times of needs. she's honest, kind, and gentle. absolutely recommend and can't wait to discover more from her!

New perspective!

This book hot home for me! I have always felt I needed to change to fit in. Society had its preferences but this book defines how it has rallied to that and how we can yet embrace ourselves in it with perspective.

Incomplete or whole? How does society read us?

I just didn’t like the subject as much as I thought I would. It was more about losing someone you love.
