Book Synopsis

Stop self-sabotaging and start creating lasting emotional healing with popular online psychotherapist Nadia Addesi's powerful guide to understanding--and breaking--destructive patterns.

Why do I . . .
. . . shut down in an argument?
. . . lose myself in relationships?
. . . keep sabotaging good things?

No matter who you are or whatever walk in life you have, at some point (or many), you've caught yourself wondering, Why do I do this? Why do I keep repeating the same cycles?

Psychotherapist and mental health educator Nadia Addesi is here to tell you that it's not your fault, and you don't need to feel ashamed or sorry. Instead, your most confusing behaviors are survival strategies designed to protect you.

Drawing on her clinical expertise, Nadia offers science-backed tools and practical exercises to help you break the most common negative cycles by:

• Identifying and understanding the behavior that shows up
• Getting to the root of why the behavior exists
• Transforming the behavior into a grounding presence through nervous system-based healing

Personal growth starts with you right here, right now, just as you are. By moving from self-criticism to self-compassion, you can have a life aligned with your true values and your most authentic self.
