An award-winning guide to reducing fear and taking control of your life from Amazon bestselling author and renowned psychologist Dr Amy Silver.

When fear looms as the loudest guest in your mind, it dominates your thoughts and controls your choices.

Author and psychologist, Dr Amy Silver, believes that if you reduce the control that fear has on you, you take back control of your life. Fear is merely a guest in your mind, albeit a noisy one, and you are the host.

In The Loudest Guest, you will learn the six essential steps to calm your fear so you can run your best life.

This book is for you if you:

are prone to worrying or over-thinking

desire to do something new but feel you shouldn't or would fail

talk yourself down, either out loud or in your head

know there's a gap between what you're doing and what you could

do if you had more courage

spend too much time thinking about what people think of you

are too 'in your head', full of doubt, regret or indecision.

In this easy-to-read, practical book you'll learn to quieten your fear voice so you can be a more powerful version of yourself.

Reviews

"Fear is a mysterious and dark location for me. This book layouts a map to navigate the terrain and it creates a language to speak to the locals without energy-sapping and unpredictable wrong turns. Reading Dr Silver's book moved me from confused tourist to a fluent traveller."

"The idea that fear is an honoured guest and that we are the host of our own party is profoundly useful. Leading above the line is about having the courage to make peace with all our internal voices and create from a place of power."
