"The North Star - Stella Polaris - is a fixed point that can always be used to figure out which way you're headed. Explorers and mariners can depend on Polaris when there are no other landmarks in sight. The same relationship exists between you and your right life, the ultimate realization of your potential for happiness. I believe that a knowledge of that perfect life sits inside you just as the North Star sits in its unaltering spot. You may think you're utterly lost, but brush away the leaves, wait for the clouds to clear, and you'll see your destiny shining as brightly as ever - the fixed point in the constantly changing constellations of your life." (Martha Beck)

I will never buy another book with this woman. She also did brene Browns book. I was livid when I heard her voice! Horrifying and ruins the good content.

Worst narrator!!

A book I’d rather read than listen to, had to fast forward through it, the voice and inflection absolutely grated on my nerves.

Good info, Horrible annoying narration

Great book! Loved the content but the sarcastic tone of the narrator made it very difficult to get through. Poor choice in narrator.

A bit disappointed. After listening to this book for 14 hours, the conclusion is that I am my own north star! Seems like I didn't need this book after all.

This book came to my life at a perfect time! This book saved me from wallowing in the tragedy that hit me! Martha Beck is brilliant in the way that she explains change & suffering in the life cycle. Can’t recommend this book enough!

You would assume that a self-help book that reads heartfelt would be read out loud in a heartfelt way. This truly sounds like it's being narrated by AI (artificial intelligence) Extremely difficult to listen to.

HORRIBLE narrating

I really enjoyed listening to this book. It definitely resonates with me and it helped me realize that I wasn’t being true to my essential self. I also realized what I could do differently to access my essential self more in my life. This was an excellent read. I would suggest it to anyone who has difficulty making decisions, or just feels like they want more in life I would suggest this book definitely!

The way she would break each chapter down and revert back to the old ones as well to have it come full circle.

I wish I would have found this book sooner. This book excites the inner parts of my soul. I am now happy, relaxed, and more confident about the world.

This book for me was life-changing!

This book completely changed my life! So many deep, actionable insights into understanding what it means to live my right life- the "ultimate realization of [my] potential for happiness" (xv), "the ultimate manifestation of [my] potential for good and happiness" (xiv). These insights are accompanied by remarkable steps to get there, to access "the set of conditions [that] allow [me] to fulfill [my] potential while creating the greatest positive impact on the world" (xv). My life has changed immeasurably because of this book, and I continue re-reading it seven years later.

I did give the narrator for the Audible version a low rating though : ( the voice sounds timid and afraid and does not do justice to this powerful work.

Remarkably healing and transformative!
