With the practical wisdom of "Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?" by Dr. Julie Smith and the empowering guidance on emotional limits found in Set Boundaries, Find Peace by Nedra Glover Tawwab, this transformative guide shines a light on the hidden dynamics of emotional manipulation — and provides the tools to dismantle them.
Unlike other books that focus solely on the dark triad (narcissists, psychopaths, and Machiavellians), this eye-opening roadmap takes a broader, more insightful approach. Psychologist Claudia Nicolasa peels back the layers of manipulation that often go unnoticed — not just in toxic relationships, but also in the subtle, everyday power dynamics we often normalize at work, in friendships, in romantic relationships, on social media, and family life. Most strikingly, it also holds up a mirror, helping us recognize how we sometimes manipulate not only others, but ourselves.

With a sharp yet accessible tone, this survival manual for emotional well-being is the perfect companion book for anyone who’s ever doubted their instincts, questioned their worth, or put someone else’s needs above their own for too long. It’s time to neutralize mind games, understand the psychology behind manipulative behaviors, and, most importantly, set boundaries that honor your needs without guilt.
