What to expect
The fundamental belief I hold is that each individual is responsible for the way in which they engage with their own existence.
How is it possible for us not to know who we are? If we are not ourselves, who are we? The truth is, we can become many things - a modified version of our true selves, a manifestation of our wounds, a projection of who others want us to be, or, in extreme circumstances, a stranger. In order to explain how this occurs, existential psychotherapist Sara Kuburic will introduce the listener to the concept of self-loss and explore how it manifests physically, emotionally, relationally and spiritually.
Told through the lens of the author's own journey, the audiobook is divided into three parts: The Self I Lost, The Self I Found and, finally, The Self I Live.
The listener will get a closer look at the behind the scenes of Kuburic's life and the numerous failed relationships, poor decisions, and over-achieving tendencies that are all rooted in her own self-loss. As she reflects on her own experiences, she will invite the reader to do the same.

A masterful guide to help all those who are building self-awareness, It's On Me eloquently and brilliantly reconnects us with a life of meaning and empowerment by helping us understand the concept of self-loss. . . . Relatable and necessary

As the expectations of work, home, social media, parenthood, partnerships, etc., pile on, Sara Kuburic touches on something many people feel in their bones: lost. In It's On Me, she gently yet firmly guides readers through our self-investigation so that we may take full responsibility and ultimately create a more aligned, authentic, and vibrant life

If human beings came with a manual, It's On Me would be it! Though we are all subject to the ups and downs of the world around us, we have more control over how we respond to that world than we realize, and Sara Kuburic shows us how

It's hard to know exactly how to return to yourself, especially if you didn't realize how far you had drifted. It's On Me invites you to do what is otherwise deeply challenging and often elusive work in a tangible, supported, and com- passionate way. It lights a path that will lead you back to you
Melissa Urban, New York Times bestselling author

Masterful and provoking . . . Kuburic has outdone herself with her brilliant guide, It's On Me, as she challenges the reader to step toward a path of self-inquiry and discovery. If your goal is to live an authentic life- one of freedom-then this a must read. In a world where skirting responsibility is often the norm, Kuburic argues that finding responsibility becomes the gateway to meaning, which will ultimately lead you to the Self-the most profound form of existence
