I have been the Odd One Out all my life personally and professionally. Being on the outside looking in I have thought about and questioned much of what we have been told by TED Talks, self- help gurus, psychologists, therapists, parents and teachers. Much

of what they have been telling us is not totally true or accurate.

For instance, is depression and despair the same thing? If not then they need to be treated differently. Is anger the same thing as rage? Absolutely not.

Now after 35 years of compiling, researching, writing and teaching, these and other insights are here in this book.
