Book Description
Do you ever feel like giving in to a fear of failure? Do you ever fear what others may think? Do you fear letting others down? If so, Tiffany Toombs has five words for you: Stop Being a Selfish B*tch. As a life coach and self-love advocate for the past 18 years, Tiffany inspires women to put themselves first and stop giving in to the fears that keep them from living their truth every single day. Through this book she turns the concept of being a selfish b*tch on its head in order to help you get to a place of ultimate self-love where you can confidently say "No" to opportunities that aren't in alignment with your truth or highest intention. She details how to set intentional boundaries within which you can thrive (while avoiding the minefield of self-sabotage). Through blatant honesty, deep understanding, and implementable strategies, Tiffany shows the incredible power of self-awareness, not only in transforming your own life but also the lives of those around you. "Tiffany facilitated the clearing out of some blocks that I didn't even realize were limiting me. The things I discovered about myself were so far back in my blind spot that I'd completely forgotten about most of them. Tiffany's ways of being gentle and caring [allowed me to] trust her fully. I never would have seen these parts of me let alone accepted them without meeting Tiffany." -Candice Ashly, NLP Trainer "The results of [Tiffany's] style and technique were genuinely surprising and have broken through some deep, ingrained patterns that have been holding me back." -Charlotte Webb, Global Marketing Manager, Movember

A great relationship is unlike anything else in life, and can contribute a lot to our wellbeing and happiness. Sadly, many of us struggle in maintaining healthy relationships.

We'll talk about: - How to develop mutually supportive relationships as partnerships. - How to monitor yourself and check your selfish impulses to avoid unnecessary confrontation. - How to learn how much space you take up, and strategies for stepping up or stepping back to create more equality and fairness in our relationships. - The importance of giving without receiving.

The book is a real gift to anybody interested in raising and counselling young people." — Peggy Natiello, in the Foreword
