Synopsis

#1 Amazon Bestseller in Health Psychology

The hidden emotional cost of being the strong one and how to come home to yourself after years of survival.

After six cancer diagnoses, Anette DeMattio learned that surviving is only part of the story. Long after the crisis ends, many people continue living in survival mode - carrying more than they should, staying strong for everyone else and quietly losing touch with themselves in the process.

If you're the one who holds everything together - at work, at home, in your relationships - you already know what this feels like.

You step up.
You push through.
You carry more than anyone realizes.

And for a while, it works..until it doesn't.

Too Strong For Your Own Good explores the hidden survival patterns that help people succeed while slowly exhausting them. Through personal stories, practical insights and the Too Strong framework, readers discover why survival can become an identity - and how to reconnect with the self that has been there beneath it all along.

Inside you'll meet five powerful survival patterns:

The First Responder.
The Empty Cup.
The Cart Puller.
The Stoic Swan.
The Island.

By the time you meet them, you'll recognize yourself in one - or perhaps all five. And you'll begin the journey from Survival Strong to Soul Strong.
