"It's a fantastic read for anyone looking for a self-esteem boost!" ( May 2014) "... funny, thought-provoking and healthily acerbic." (The Daily Telegraph, May 2014) "... provides simple, thought-provoking anecdotes and creative stories designed to put a smile on your face and a spring in your step." (Gay Times, July 2014) "The book is full of useful and easy to follow examples of how to be the most awesome version of you a bit more often, without ever, becoming sanctimonious or preachy. It doesn't offer a shortcut to enlightenment or unlimited wealth, but with lashings of dry humour and plenty of common sense, it lifts the mood and has you chuckling at yourself and the elaborate way we all trap ourselves in the cult of busy." (July 2014) "... possibly the most entertaining self-help book you will ever read." (Northern Woman, September 2014) "Written in a truly humorous and accessible way, it is easy to understand and fun to read" (Erisea Magazine, October 2014)
