Publisher's summary

Never fast enough, never smart enough, never pretty enough - just never enough. I was conditioned from a young age to firmly believe that I would never be enough of anything to attain the unconditional love I craved so deeply from my bipolar, narcissistic mother and the safety and protection I craved from my loving but terrified father. I would grow up to be a strong-willed, highly accomplished woman who hated and hid from the world. What good are fancy houses, lots of money, and a great job if you are small, tired, miserable, and slowly dying inside?

My life truly started the day I woke up and realized that the emotional abuse of my childhood had distorted the lens through which I see myself and the world around me. In this book, I share with you my beautiful, painful, and sometimes humorous journey to healing. Whether it’s boiled peas, sledgehammers, or therapists, I share all my tools for healing and the lessons learned from my first awakening.

Not very helpful

I really enjoyed listening to this story. The narrator had. pleasant voice and used inflection of emotion, in all the right places. Tge story was also well written and I never found myself bored, while listening.

I gave three stars because the book's intro led me to believe that I would get much more out of it as far as explanations for how she was able to start healing. She gave a descriptor or two, but never explained in what ways these outlets worked for her.

It's still worth a listen, if you want to read the story as if it's a work of fiction. I doubt you'll find much help, with your trauma, between tge pages however.
