When she was 18 years old, Carolyn Jessop was coerced into an arranged marriage with a total stranger - a man 32 years her senior. Merril Jessop already had three wives. But arranged plural marriages were an integral part of Carolyn's heritage: She was born into and raised in the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), the radical offshoot of the Mormon Church.

Really enjoyed the story from beginning to end
Revisado: 11-23-22
It was a good listen and the pace and tone of the narrator, Ann Marie Lee, was good for both settling down or going about my tasks. The storyline was told in a thorough yet respectful of others regard that I feel like I have a much deeper understanding from an empathetic and sympathetic regard for that CULTure (emphasis because that is the entire monologue throughout the book) I feel it was nice to have an insider perspective to consider when looking from the outside. I would say anyone who likes female authored/narrated titles, someone wanting to learn about the set group of people, or just looking for encouragement if you have left yourself, even someone wanting an easy to follow, but documentary as a story is told, would enjoy this book. The partial autobiography was insightful and I’m glad to know more about the author(s), the background from which they come, and to hear a book with a nearly flawless good outcome in the end. It was ALMOST all positive in the end.

Dr. Faith Harper lays it all out: what anxiety is, what it's good for - that's right, it's actually a necessary response that helps to keep us alive in bad situations - how to know when it's gone overboard, and practical tips on how to deal with it when it gets bad. This book is a lifesaver for panic attacks, breaking out of flight-or-fight-or-freeze responses, and for chronic anxiety. It's also good for folks who aren't daily burdened by anxiety, but want to better cope with those tough situations that affect us all.

Relatable- NOT a dry scientific listen.
Revisado: 02-01-21
This is the second book in my library that I actually began listening to narrated by Erin. I thoroughly enjoy her nonchalant DGAF style of reading. I think she does a remarkable job of relaying it the way the author intended. If you don't like the f-bomb don't give it a listen. If you're looking for a scientific specific book this one touches on it but this isn't your best bet although she does list more scientifically geared authors in this publication. For those who also struggle with ADHD, this is a really good listen; You can get through it in one go.
