Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
Good Self, Bad Self
Judy Smith · 2012
65/100
👎 Skip It
Smith knows crisis management - she's the real-life inspiration behind Scandal - and her POWER framework for handling personal blowups has genuine professional grounding. That said, it leans pretty hard on her celebrity connection, and there isn't much independent detail to confirm how well the ideas land on the page. Solid but not essential.
