''A beautiful blend of storytelling, science and practical tools. Smith uses her expertise to introduce true boundary setting tools to build (and rebuild) our relationships to others and ourselves.'' Eve Rodsky, New York Times bestselling author of Fair PlayWhen''s the last time you felt as composed as you portray to your boss, family and friends? If there''s a discord between the two, you''re not alone.

She also unpacks the science of our social nature, explaining why we''re so focused on others and teaching us how to interrupt anxious relationship patterns.
