Life coach stuff. People probably paid a lot of money for this in course form but I didn’t get a lot out of it. Basically, we’re all living in The Matrix of our own wrong thoughts about ourselves and what we can do. Notice your automatic responses and rewire them to create better mindsets and automatic responses. It didn’t really address the things that are in my way and skirted on the edge of toxic positivity. There’s one paragraph acknowledging racism, oppression and real barriers in the world and then it’s back to the message that it’s mostly just you in your own way.

I read an ARC of this book via netgalley.

This book is like what you see in movies when a hypnotist snaps their finger and you see things "for real". If you are ready to have the veil lifted and to really change your life, The Adversity Hack is the book for you. Meg Poag does a great job in being nurturing, guiding, and coaching your way into the "Real World". The world where you are in control and you are not sabotaging yourself. The steps, lanterns, and the coaching illustrations are so useful to anyone, in any path that you are in or any career, Meg Poag helps you get through it. It's an inspiring and motivating book that I truly enjoyed.

As with most self help, there are some nice nuggets here, but much of this info is recycled ideas. Way too many steps and sub-steps to really be a useful daily tool, IMHO
