We are understandably scared to have difficult conversations right now. But comedian and bestselling writer Deborah Frances-White is even more scared of not having them.

Having grown up in a cult which shut down any dissent, Deborah sees the same tactics being used in our rapidly changing society. She knows the value of freedom of speech, critical thinking and the ability to argue well. And as the host of hit podcast The Guilty Feminist, she has been having difficult conversations in public for almost a decade.

In her new, urgent page-turner Deborah examines how the world has come to this and what we can actually do about it. Most importantly, she explores how to change minds, including our own. Deborah invites us to boldly meet this moment in history with hope, clarity and courage. She has written, as Desiree Burch says, 'a book to leave you transformed.'

This book really is a clear illustration of the reason that we need to have conversations with people from all sides, really listen, ask questions to understand and then challenge in a gentle way to understand our differences and lean into the discomfort that might bring.

Deborah has an amazing voice, has done a huge amount of research and clearly wants everyone to have conversations to help narrow the divide and create a deeper understanding on all sides.

Fascinating, amazing and necessary!!
