In this helpful guide, life coach Berryman (Nine Strategies for Dealing with the Difficult Stuff) offers 12 steps for dealing with stress and finding ways to strike a more beneficial work-life balance. Focusing primarily on one's sense of self-betterment, she writes: "We aren't responsible for everything that happens in our lives, but we are responsible for how we respond to it." Living a happy and productive life, for Berryman, must include working a job that aligns with one's values, having the courage to manage and alleviate dislikes, and putting one's own needs first when in a detrimental situation. To this end, she provides question and "action" sections filled with prompts and suggestions that will help readers take personal responsibility, engage in difficult conversations, and development mindfulness practices. Throughout, she emphasizes that accepting the reality of one's limitations and the nature of any given situation allows one to work toward positive change. Berryman's straightforward work will help readers looking to better understand emotional responses to working life. (Self-published)
