It All Starts When You Do

How to Do the Real Work of Self-Healing




A well-loved therapist's guide to overcoming self-sabotage.

Have you ever wondered what's stopping you from achieving your dreams? Is it you?

Self-sabotage is a common human trait, and it can be the silent force that derails your goals and aspirations. Did you know that 80% of New Year’s resolutions are abandoned by February? While an abandoned resolution might seem trivial, chronic self-sabotage can destroy positivity in both your personal and professional life.

In Good Things Are Allowed to Happen, popular therapist Kier Gaines guides you through the transformative process of identifying and overcoming the obstacles that hold you back. Through a blend of practical advice and profound insights, this book empowers you to stop sabotaging your own success and start living life to the fullest.

Good Things Are Allowed to Happen isn't about quick fixes; it's about doing the deep, inner work that leads to lasting change. By embracing self-honesty, you'll learn to recognise how you're getting in your own way, and take actionable steps towards self-acceptance. This book serves as your roadmap to a more fulfilling life, encouraging you to take a long, hard look in the mirror and make the changes necessary to allow good things to happen.

Are you ready to break free from self-sabotage and embrace a life of unlimited potential? Good Things Are Allowed to Happen will help unlock the power of self-honesty and transformation. Your best life is waiting – take the first step today.
