After years of standard education, you may think that you could acquire or hone skills the way you did there. Unfortunately, you may be mistaken. That’s because standard education taught you how to pass tests. But it didn’t teach you how to think. It didn’t teach you the tips and tricks to actually retain what you’ve read or written in all those years.

Story
In today's workplace, managers, leaders, and HR professionals often believe they don't have the time to help employees navigate conflict. More often than not, however, it takes more time not to address conflict than to constructively intervene. But before you can successfully guide others in managing disagreements, you must be able to manage yourself - your mindset, presence, and behaviors.
Editorial reviews
Narrator Rob Davis uses a refreshing approach to Dr. Fred Woolverton's guide on how to get over addiction, adopting an encouraging, familiar manner that will make listeners feel as though they're being given advice by a trusted friend. Instead of applying a forceful tone that could alienate listeners, Davis uses gentle encouragement to describe Dr. Woolverton's easy-to-understand instructions on gaining lasting recovery through self-exploration.
Listeners will finish this audiobook feeling inspired and empowered to get rid of their addictions and live a happy, productive life.
Publisher's Summary
We're all addicted to something - but when the crutch gets in the way of living a happy and productive life, it must stop. Over the last 25 years, renowned addiction therapist Dr. Fred Woolverton has used his dynamic, empathetic approach to help thousands of addicts achieve long-term recovery - including himself and his coauthor Susan Shapiro, whom he helped quit smoking and drinking and find success in both love and her career. Dr. Woolverton views the external habit as less important than the chaos and fear underlying the addiction, which we use to regulate our feelings. The solution, he has found, is easier than we think.
Unhooked: How to Quit Anything is a smart, readable, and actionable guide to conquering any addictive habit. Using real patient examples as well as research and his own experience, Dr. Woolverton shows us how to thrive without self-medicating. His approach is an unorthodox blend of straightforward changes to behavior and open and honest conversation with another person. His specific instructions do not require an expensive therapist, rehab, 12-step program, or a higher power (but he does make readers aware of those viable options). Let Dr. Woolverton help you kick your addiction and move on with your life today!

Interesting book
I enjoyed hearing about patients stories and the unorthodox style of therapist. Not life changing, but certainly a good read.

Misleading subtitled
This is more a collection of stories of patients with various addictions, rather than a how-to book. There is very little on how to quit. The stories are also admittedly unique and the practitioner’s methodology off the beaten track to an extent. So very little in this book to take away and learn from, unless you’ve not read much about addiction.
