Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

An Eye-Opening Guide to Healthier Relationships
As a 35-year-old working mom, I've had my share of complicated relationships. This book was a real wake-up call. It helped me identify subtle toxic behaviors I'd been overlooking in both personal and professional settings. The explanations of gaslighting and narcissism were particularly enlightening - I found myself thinking "Oh, that's what that was!" more than once. The practical advice for setting boundaries and rebuilding self-esteem has been invaluable. I appreciate how the author balances compassion with encouragement to take action. While some parts were tough to read, especially when I recognized past mistakes, the overall message is empowering. It's not a quick fix, but it's given me tools to navigate relationships more confidently. A must-read for anyone feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns and ready for change.
