This book will help you get rid of perfectionism and the feeling of your own inadequacy, and learn how to build more trusting relationships with yourself and with others. The well-known German psychotherapist Bärbel Wardecki will gently guide you through the experiences of childhood and show at what point the belief formed that love must be earned, recognition must be pursued, and the right to be accepted depends on constant victories and being first. You’ll learn to better hear your genuine feelings, express your needs honestly, and understand more clearly who you are and what place you occupy in the world.
