I have told almost anyone who would listen about this book. It has opened my eyes to my triggers, lack of boundaries and how to communicate better internally and with my kids. I checked it out from the library months ago and am looking to buy a permanent copy for myself and a friend. I find the author totally relatable, funny and practical. I feel it’s changed so much about my approach to parenting.
