Book description
This could be the last self-help book you ever read.Self-help books promise transformation and empowerment but rarely deliver real change. What gives?Despite what we've been told, no amount of self-help, quick-fixes, or mind-hacks will get us where we need to go. We cannot transform our futures through willpower and hard work alone.It's Not (All) Your Fault reveals the ways self-help-though well-meaning-is deeply flawed and keeps us trapped in stagnant cycles. It makes all of society's problems your problems.Sharon Podobnik draws on extensive industry and personal experience to offer a fresh perspective on personal development and collective transformation, revealing their inextricable link and demonstrating that well-being depends on solidarity, not self-optimization.Whether you're a self-help enthusiast, skeptic, or outspoken activist, this book is essential reading. Through captivating stories and insightful research, Podobnik reorients us to our power, provides radical strategies for growth and change, and brings conscious awareness to what we already know: the future is a collaborative effort.Despite what the world has told you, it's not all your fault.
