It was really good to read, and to be honest about how you help YOU.
The chapters are well laid out, easy to read and informative. It’s written as if a friend was talking to you. Which I find really nice.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and publisher for an advanced copy to review for my honest opinion.
I enjoyed this book a lot! I related to a lot of what Georgia, the author, felt about her journey through therapy and self help thus far in her life, and liked the exercises and questions to help me figure out what my own answers to these questions would be. I have done some similar exercises of naming/labeling different parts of myself, and was glad for the reminder to pick that up and try it with her additional tips. I'll definitely be recommending this to others!
I think this will help in the long run but as with any self-help book, it has to come from YOU, realising your issue, your niggle etc, then gaining knowledge on how to action the change. Think about what makes you happy, write a list, do them more. Life gets in the way sometimes but sometimes you need to appreciate the NOW, what do you like about NOW? Would you change anything? Appreciate the breeze, the sunshine, the quiet period, whatever is happening, overall, appreciate being alive and having choices to make it a better/good day.
As with self-help books, there is a process, I will look into NLP as I haven't heard of that one before. I wanted to read this to help with anxiety, I feel it will help as long as I can think 'in the moment'. What is happening, how am I feeling? What can I do to change the feeling? Can I take a break? Ask for help? Etc It's a change of mindset and it takes time but it's your own journey.
I would recommend this as I feel it has good information, it's not all do this, do that, it's more about thinking about your own life and how you can bring it into your life. I like the idea of the "14 ladies" I wonder how many I have! (Past and future versions of yourselves, in different ages of you life) What knowledge did/do they pass on to you along the way?
Enjoyable read!
This was an great self help book. It's a super fast read but makes you think whole time. It's a big message in a small package. There are exercises and questions and activities throughout to help you focus and understand. This book really made me think. Soe was difficult to understand but I will be reading again so maybe can see the difference after a year. Great book.
Thanks you to NetGalley, author Georgia Holleran and publisher for an ARC of this book.
Whilst the title of this book grabbed my attention quickly, the writing and relatable situations within this book is what really appealed to me. Well written and easy to delve into and apply to my own life.
I'm not usually one for self-help books but this one was recommended to me through my network. "The Last Self-Help Book You'll Ever Need" by Georgia Holleran probably reaffirms my view of the self-help arena, it can tell you a lot of stuff but unless you actually pull your finger out and do something then it is probably not going to add much to your life. The approach in this book is different, and that's what I liked about it. Firstly, it's easy to read (a couple of hours max), partly autobiographical (so avoids corporate tones and unnecessary jargon) and keeps coming back to the point that YOU need to make the change. There are exercises to do and an online community group to join. This is so much more than just a book, it's a stepping stone to connect with like-minded beings!
