"Insightful and powerful ideas from a world-famous therapist " --Carol Dweck, New York Times bestselling author of Mindset Break free from your past, embrace the true you, and unleash your brightest future A lot of us have been trying to "fix" ourselves for a really long time. We've spent years "working on ourselves" and analyzing our past to try to get beyond it. We assume that once we understand why we are the way we are and heal all the wounds of our past, we'll finally be free to live the lives we yearn to be living. Yet healing and transformation are two different domains. The truth is that while healing your past can certainly save your life, it won't necessarily change your life. In What's True About You, licensed therapist and New York Times bestselling author Katherine Woodward Thomas reveals a revolutionary way to leave behind a painful past and grow into the abundant and fulfilling future you desire. In this book, Thomas guides us through her radically effective, life-altering seven-step process. This process liberates us from the false beliefs we have about ourselves--born of past pain--and empowers us to begin living and loving as our true selves. The version of ourselves we've always sensed we could, and should be. We no longer need let our past define or limit what's possible. Instead, by following Thomas's groundbreaking and refreshingly inspiring protocol, we can change who we are today. We can manifest the positive possibilities we hold for a bright and beautiful future for ourselves and for our world.

And Then They Lived Happily... We enter our romantic relationships with great love, hope, and excitement--we've found the 'one', so we plan and forge our futures together. But sometimes, for many different reasons, relationships come undone; they don't work out. Commonly, we view this as a personal failure, rather than an opportunity. And instead of honoring what we once meant to each other, we hoard bitterness and anger, stewing in shame and resentment. Sometimes even lashing out in destructive and hurtful ways, despite the fact that we're good people at heart. That's natural: we're almost biologically primed to respond this way. Yet there is another path to the end of a relationship--one filled with mutual respect, kindness, and deep caring.
