Featured Reviews

I really enjoyed Trent’s book. I think it’s a great starter self-help book, that has a lot of what Trent speaks on all in one place. I love the way Trent doesn’t sugar coat anything when he writes. If you’ve listened to Trent for a while, you’ve probably heard him touch on most of these topics, but I enjoyed having them all written down and in one place.
