Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness: A Process for Reclaiming Your Full Self

Who am I? What do I want? What's standing in my way?

With the publication of her electrifying New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior, Elise Loehnen--often deemed "our culture's therapist"--offered a groundbreaking exploration of the rules women unwittingly follow in order to be considered good. She illuminated the centuries-old code of conduct that keeps us disempowered, exhausted, anxious, and disconnected--even from ourselves. On Our Best Behavior touched a nerve, sparking impassioned reader response and igniting conversations both virtual and in real life.

In Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness, Loehnen partners with Courtney Smith, a renowned Enneagram expert and coach, to take the ideas in On Our Best Behavior and explains what we can do to override them. Replicating the transformational process Loehnen and Smith have shared at sold-out retreats around the country, and incorporating tools they have learned from the visionary healers, thinkers, and therapists they've worked with over the years, Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness prompts readers to dig into the stories they tell themselves, guiding them to peel back the layers of cultural programming that prevent them from expressing their full potential.

This paradigm-shifting workbook leads us to answer to the questions that tug at our souls.
