About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The Sunday Times Bestseller

If change is the natural order of things, why do so many people struggle with the milestones of life - from first jobs and first loves to children leaving home and retirement?

We live in a culture of limitless choice - and life is now more complex than ever. In This Too Shall Pass, acclaimed psychotherapist Julia Samuel draws on hours of conversations with her patients to show how we can learn to adapt and thrive during our most difficult and transformative experiences. Illuminated by the latest social and psychological research, this book unflinchingly deals with the hard times in family, love, work, health and identity.

From a woman deciding whether to leave her husband for a younger lover, to a father handling a serious medical diagnosis. And from a new mother struggling with the decision to return to work, to a young man dealing with the aftermath of coming out, and a woman starting over after losing her job.

These powerful, unforgettable and deeply intimate stories about everyday people will inform our understanding of our own unique response to change and enlighten the way we approach challenges at every stage of life.

Full of helpful insight

I really enjoyed the wisdom of this book. The calm, honest and non-judgemental attitude of Julia makes even the listener feel like they are in a safe space to learn, absorb and try to change alongside the case studies/patients she writes about in the book.

The audible narration by the author can be a bit monotone and I found I could only listen to this book at times when I could allow myself to become fully absorbed, such as on a solo car ride or walk, and not before socialising or high-energy engagements.

I think that this touches on so many important topics and is a great read/listen for someone on the self-discovery and self-acceptance journey.
