Spare me the Manipulations

What a great book to help you recognize the different ways people all around you are being manipulative. I like how the book helps you to recognize it for what it is and to set healthy boundaries. After listening to this audiobook I was able to feel more comfortable going to work and speaking up that I did not want the new title (that came with no ($$) as it was only a means to have more work added to my scope as well as the added pressure. I recommend this book for those who want to stop the manipulation in thier lives.

Eye-Opening

This was a very interesting listen, presenting notions that most of us should be aware of to better navigate conflict and interpersonal relationships in all spheres of life. Everyone manipulates to some level, but understanding what toxicity looks like and knowing what tools to use to steer away from these people and situations can be life changing. Worth a listen!

Great guide to end manipulation

There are too many people who seem to manipulate their way through everything. Unfortunately, It often comes at the expense of sincere people. To be able to end manipulation, you've got to be able to see it for what it is. The book will guide you through the steps. I personally loved Chapter 2, where you find ways to spot a manipulator. Once you know that someone is a manipulator, you can start taking action. The narrator is doing an excellent job with his tone, which brings the book to another level.
