Just wanted to let you know I had my second deposition in my work comp case and your e-book helped me so much. The HR lady showed up as she did for the 1st depo with lots of plots and stories to make me look like I was the one who caused the problems and was a liar. I calmly and truthfully answered each question and blew up her plans and stories. After reading your book I was not intimidated as I was in the first deposition. My lawyer said it was one of the best depositions he's been in and he has been in practice a very long time. Thank you so much for writing your book. Realizing it was not me. All this time, i blamed myself for everything and after reading your eBook, it taught me that it really wasn't my fault. Thank you so much.

I just bought your book last night, and I am so happy I did! Even in the first few pages, I am learning a lot. The way you explain things is very clear and easy to understand. I really appreciate how you break down complex ideas into simple steps. It makes me feel more confident about handling the issues at my job. Right now, there is a lot of nonsense going on, and I often feel frustrated. I hope your book will give me the tools I need to deal with these problems effectively. The $17 I spent on your book already feels worth it, and I can’t wait to read more. Learning how to navigate difficult situations at work is important to me, and I believe your advice will help me.

Team Leader, Hospitality Industry
Personally, the eBook really helped me understand how bullies work and why they act the way they do. It explained that many bullies show narcissistic behaviors, which means they focus on themselves and don’t consider how their actions hurt others. Reading this made me realize that the problem lies with the bullies, not with me. I learned that bullies often act out because of their own issues, and this was a big relief for me. The eBook also guided me on how to recover from the feelings of self-blame that I had for a long time. It taught me to see that I am not at fault for their actions. Understanding these points has been really helpful in my journey to heal and move forward. Now, I feel more empowered, knowing I can break free from the negative thoughts caused by bullying.
