What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Discover the bestselling personal development guide designed to help you feel confident, exude calm, establish boundaries, and live an easier, more self-determined life.
Often, just one line can turn a difficult situation around or stop trouble in its tracks:
- I decide who pushes my buttons.
- I'll forgive myself right now.
- I’m sorry if I gave you the impression you could talk to me like that.
- I understand you completely, and I would like something else.
- This isn't against you, it's for me.
Drawing on more than two decades’ experience as a leadership and life coach, Karin Kuschik demonstrates how a well-chosen sentence can provide much-needed clarity, offering up an effective solution even in the heat of the moment.
Combining entertaining storytelling with practical tips and examples, Karin shows how purposeful words can have a freeing effect, how they make us strong, calm and confident, ready to win respect, meet challenges and take control.
Whether you’re searching for the right words to resolve a situation at work or at home, this toolkit of small but mighty sentences will empower you to stay calm, gain respect and take control of whatever life throws at you.

Normally I'm allergic to self-help books but there's something very bracing in Kuschik's insistence on authenticity - avoiding white lies that only stress us out and fog our minds.
