Giving you the secret sauce because it took me WAY longer than it should have to realise that the self help books I was reading when I was finding myself again were doing everything but helping me! 😬
And I’m not saying there isn’t a place for self help books…actually, they can be great when you’re in a stable or expansive mindset.
But often, the very times we’re drawn to these types of books is when we’re already in a slightly fragile state, looking for answers and quick fixes…and in that mindset, they’ll just add to the load.
On top of that, the advice in self help books can be too generic and over complicated, making an already tough time even tougher 🙃
My advice, put the self help books away for another day and keep things simple.
You might even benefit from working with a coach to help you navigate this chapter and keep you accountable (hellooo, that’s me 👋🏼)
