Lyons combines leading behavioral science with actionable advice on how to communicate with intent, think critically, and open your mind and ears to the world around you. Talk less, get more. That's what STFU is all about. Prescriptive, informative, and addictively readable, STFU gives you the tools to become your better self, whether that's in the office, at home, online, or in your most treasured relationships. Because, after all, what you say is who you are. So take a deep breath, turn the page, and quietly change your life.

I've listened to hundreds of audiobooks, and this one stands out for its professional quality. The narrator struck the ideal balance between dramatic interpretation and letting the text speak for itself. The audio engineering was superb with consistent volume levels and crystal-clear recording.
