Purchase options and add-ons
Do you want to let go of what’s not working and claim your authentic life?
“Dr. Bob’s book offers the practical tools to gain awareness of the ways we unconsciously remain trapped in cycles of trauma and dependency.” — Dr. Nicole LePera, #1 NY Times Best-selling author of How to Do the Work and How to Meet Yourself
Trauma is running the show and most of us don’t think we have it. We label it “stuck”, “stress”, “depression”, and “anxiety.” The solutions are simple but not easy. Stop Doing Sh*t You Don’t Want to Do unpacks:
1) The many forms of trauma - mild and severe,
2) The many ways we medicate our pain.
3) The importance of finding support.
4) How to do the deep inner work.
5) How to live with purpose.
6) How to live with passion.
Dr. Bob Beare’s book is a framework and a guide to emotional freedom. It provides powerful insights on how to go beyond therapy and create a meaningful and purposeful life — a reminder that, with support, we can transcend the patterns that keep us stuck!
Get this book if you are ready to let go of the crap, and live your most passionate and purposeful life.

I can not possibly tell you in review the many lessons learned you must read it!
One nugget. Many feel that the worst thing that can occur is to be triggered by random events or when hearing others share their traumas. Dr. Beare says, “If we are in fear and can get it out on paper with intense red paint, or in a wild dance, or by writing a poem, we keep the energy moving rather than letting it build into despair. When you are going through hell, keep going!”
“The way out is through.” I endorse this 1000%!
Perhaps, it is because I went through the fire in 334 pages of We Are Not Our Secrets, my memoir. Doing what he suggests transforms. I was able to release completely. Never having to revisit that pain again, unless it’s when helping others or sharing my story.
But the tears are temporary as when watching a movie. They are most often tears of joy.
I feel as Dr. Beare so eloquently writes, “The way out is through.” Dr. Beare is a trail blazer presenting new psychology techniques that are imperative. He outlines them, not only based upon his years of research and study, but his years of fighting addiction and winning. He believes the best teachers are those who have battled and won:. Survivors learn from survivors.
Go through your fires, as Dr. Beare suggests, because it is in this you will be set free! Thank you Dr. Beare for this treasure.
I would recommend this book to people frustrated with unresolved trauma, or perhaps psychology students wanting a fresh perspective. Download the sample, if you can stomach/appreciate the tone of this book, then this is for you.
Written with the reader in mind, it flows like a friendly conversation. The book is also very practical with down-to-earth exercises after each chapter to help the reader reflect on how new lessons resonate with them personally. These are great to come back to any time we feel getting sucked into old patterns, behavioral compulsions, and addictive tendencies.
A much needed resource for those who want to keep growing personally and emotionally. When we let go of people-pleasing by doing sh*t we don't want to do, we can start living -- living a full life that aligns with what we do want.

On particular, I loved learning about trauma and creativity, that ‘laziness is a lack of enthusiasm’ and how to charge your creativity.
