My Journey to Connection
I was surprised by how much this audiobook changed the way I think about my relationships. At first, I was a bit skeptical because I’d tried other advice before, but this one felt different. It gave me clear steps to work on my own habits and helped me see the value in setting healthy boundaries. Listening to it while driving or doing chores felt natural, like having a personal coach with me all the time. I especially liked the real-life examples and practical tips that I could start using immediately. This experience made me feel more confident about handling conflicts and improving communication with my loved ones. It truly made my everyday interactions a bit easier and more genuine.

Understand the cycles
This book doesn’t sugarcoat the hard truths, and that’s exactly why it works. It goes straight into the uncomfortable stuff and gives you tools to start digging out. Some sections will wake you up, cutting through the noice with practical advice that isn't preachy. Other parts felt a little surface-level if you're already familiar with emotional wellness, but it’s a solid starting point for anyone ready to face their patterns head-on. If you're tired of the same old self-help clichés, this guide is a good place to start.

Stop being toxic
This is a wonderful audiobook that has really good advice on how to stop being toxic, and to become a better person with helping our relationships. I listened to this because I wanted to learn more about some of the family dynamics in my family and it gave me some really good strategies. I’m going to try to get my brother-in-law to follow. I shared it with my sister and she agrees. If you know someone who is toxic and you wanna help them stop. This is a great resource.

Finally Made Peace with Myself
I wasn’t sure if I needed this book until I started reading. The way it called out behaviors I didn’t even realize were toxic hit close to home. It made me reflect on how I was affecting people around me and gave me practical steps to work on it. It’s not preachy or overwhelming—just honest and helpful. My relationships feel lighter, and I feel like I’m finally growing in the right direction. Definitely worth the read!

Practical Advice That Sticks
This book really gets to the point without making you feel judged. You’ll find clear, doable steps to recognize and change toxic habits. What I appreciated most was how it focuses on self-reflection and building stronger connections, rather than just pointing out what’s wrong. The examples are realistic, and the advice feels like it’s coming from someone who genuinely wants to help. If you’re ready to own up to your actions and make meaningful changes, this is worth the read.
