{"product_id":"the-yes-woman","title":"The Yes Woman","description":"In a world that teaches girls to become Yes Women, learning to say 'no' is a radical feat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor most of her life, Australian journalist Grace Jennings-Edquist had been keen to please. From school to career, in her appearance, friendships, and even everyday interactions, she was always  anxious not to disappoint. Becoming a mother finally tipped  her over the edge, and she wound up in a mental-health unit. Her attempts to be everything to everyone - and to do it all perfectly - had taken their toll.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrace could no longer avoid the truth: she was chronically addicted to saying yes. And she was not alone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrace discovered that, in a phenomenon that crosses class, culture and sexuality, Yes Women are everywhere, and there's a bit of Yes Woman in just about everyone. Interviewing scores  of people in Australia and overseas, both ordinary women and experts, Grace gained a deeper understanding of the patriarchal origins of the Yes Woman, and developed a plan to seize  control of her own life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Yes Woman is a practical guide to recognising your own Yes Woman tendencies, measuring their cost on your health, and resisting that need to please. It won't be easy, but it'll be worth it","brand":"Affirm Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313325859054,"sku":"9781922400796","price":24.73,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781922400796.jpg?v=1716307513","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/the-yes-woman","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
