Judith’s approachable tone engages readers in a way that encourages them to complete the exercises. The questions at the end of each section provide takeaways and additional reinforcement.

This is a great resource for a quick pick-me-up, as well as long-term change.” — Kelly and Michelle Skeen, PsyD, coauthors of Just As You Are
