From award-winning blogger Melissa Camara Wilkins, come and find a stunningly simple path to confidence and clarity. All you have to do is give yourself permission to show up as your gloriously imperfect self. Trying to fix yourself is exhausting. But being yourself - that is both possible and life-giving. The key is a simple heart-shift from chasing after perfection to learning to tell a truer story about ourselves, the world, and our place in it. Melissa Camara Wilkins invites you into her journey of discovering the profound simplicity of dropping the pretenses and allowing ourselves to be fully human - flaws and all. This is a story about making life simpler by letting go of who you think you're supposed to be and becoming who you really are. With wit and compassion, Melissa explores how to be present, show up as your real self, and get comfortable in your own skin by aligning the truth inside you with the life you live on the outside. Gain confidence with the freeing practices of dropping the mask, abandoning the experts, and understanding your real assignment. With refreshing honesty and insight, Melissa invites you to move from the either/or dichotomy into a spacious freedom of embracing the both/and - brave and scared, messy and real, gloriously imperfect and absolutely enough. This is your permission slip to be your whole, human self. For everyone who feels the pressure to fit in, measure up, and get it together, Permission Granted is a life-giving invitation to soul-level simplicity.

"From 1501 to 1505, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo Buonarroti both lived and worked in Florence. Leonardo was a charming, handsome fifty year-old at the peak of his career. Michelangelo was a temperamental sculptor in his mid-twenties, desperate to make a name for himself. The two despise each other."--Front jacket flap.

Addictive behaviour operates routinely at organisational, societal and global levels. In fact, the addictive process is so socially integrated into our society that much of it goes unrecognised. Addictions discussed in Set Yourself Free include alcoholism, drug dependency, eating disorders, work addiction, compulsive gambling, religious addiction, sex addiction, love addicted relationships, and Co-dependency. Co-dependency originates from the denial of the true self in order to survive within a dysfunctional family or societal system. Co-dependents either isolate, becoming very anti-dependent or become overly focused on and affected by others behaviour. They have an impaired relationship with themselves, and therefore don't really know their true inner self. In Set Yourself Free, Shirley defines the meaning of true personal freedom and explains why so many of us feel trapped, frustrated and are sick and tired of being sick and tired. She shows co-dependents how to learn to love others while honouring themselves. A must read for people with addictive personalities ... and those who love them! Shirley says: We don't have to keep talking about the fact that people have had wounded childhoods. Now it's time to start asking ourselves what are we going to do about it? My book is not for those looking for another self-help, quick fix. It is for those who are looking for real answers to real life problems, and are ready to take responsibility to make positive changes in their lives.
