🎙 Narrated by Alexis Fernandez-Preiksa (author-narrated)
60/100
👎 Skip It
A former Pilates instructor turned neuroscience writer breaks down how to rewire negative self-talk using real brain science, and readers say the practical habit-and-brain-function sections land well — though the purely self-love material apparently resonates less. Fernandez-Preiksa narrates her own book, which adds authenticity even though no one's independently rated the performance. A decent, science-leaning pick, just don't expect every chapter to hit with equal force.
