I'm kind of a compassionate communication and meaningful conflict junkie. I heard about this book on Hidden Brain while on a road trip and immediately got it to listen to on my long drive from NC to CO. the information is beautiful, well researched and elegantly presented. the narrator though.. oh man, it's really hard to take him seriously or listen to him speaking, especially after listening to the author speak on conflict on a podcast with such a compassionate and receptive voice and manner. I think the narrator does a disservice to this incredible work. The narrator makes something so interesting feel tedious.

I loved this. I too am on a journey to heal the "reasons" in the way of love. joyfully unlearning being reasonable. eagerly embracing UNREASONABLE LOVE. ♡

I'm a big reader, my focus in reading is predominantly focused on compassionate and mindful communication, expanding my own capacity for compassion and integrating my own trauma. I don't struggle with addiction as Dr. Mate explains in the book, however as a survivor of so much early childhood violence and neglect so many of the stories he relays resonate with own internal struggle. The enormity of his compassion and honesty alongside the science of trauma, stress and addiction and how it is informed by socioeconomics/capitalism/systemic misogyny and racism is enlightening. I recommend this book to anyone who is wanting to shift into a deeper compassion for themselves and the world around them, especially when confronted with stressful connections with folx struggling with addiction or the aftermath of trauma.
