Outstanding!!! Life changing!!!

I usually don't write reviews but it's the least I could do considering what this book has done for me. I recently came to know of the Japanese tradition of Kintsugi. I found it very interesting the way flaws were embraced and I just googled it to read up more about it, I didn't realise I was about to stumble across a book that would completely change my life. I've gone through serious traumas in my life and I've never really dealt with them properly, which unfortunately means they have manifested in damaging unhealthy ways. Ruining my relationships, performance at work, quality of life and outlook on life. Deep down I've know that I needed to talk to an expert on how I can change this but I've been hurt by people I've trusted so I didn't want to go through the hassle of opening up to try to start finding the ideal person that could advise me on my particular circumstances. Tomas Navarro is that guy! I've laughed with this book, I've cried with this book. I love the way it is read, it's brilliant! The narrator has a great tone, not too serious but not too comical. I loved the accent changes when appropriate it really helped me visualise the stories. It feels like he actually cares. This is not a book you can listen to non-stop as work needs to be done in between certain chapters, those exercises I have found very helpful. I'm not finished the book yet but I'm so impressed and couldn't wait to review. This is probably one the most important books I've ever read as it's taught me so much useful information I can apply to my life. I'm already noticing the different on my outlook on life and how I'm handling the adversity I'm currently facing. Thank you Tomas Navarro :)

Another self help book

Not a bad book at all, however, there's very little to do with Kintsugi in this book, aside from the begining of each chapter, the rest is just self help that has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Somewhat misleading but it's a solid self help book, I've just listened to too many. The narration is really good though.

Thought header was optional. Why is one required?

A majority of this book has nothing to do with the concept of kintsugi. There was a lot of talk about depression which isn't immediately relatable to readers.
