It’s been out for a few years now, but the book I wrote with Dr. Dennis R. Rader, Living Toad Free, is still getting reviews. And I’m glad to report that the reviews continue to be positive. 

Granted, the person who recently gave the book a positive review is a colleague who runs the Treasure Valley Consultant’s network in Southwest Idaho, but I’m certainly not going to tell him he can’t say positive things about my book! 

Here’s just a bit of what TVCNet’s president, Justin Beller, had to say:

Toads are obstacles that get in the way of what we truly want out of life. Toads come in many forms, shapes, colors and sizes. They show up just about anywhere. At home, at work or in places we least suspect. Some call them “personal demons”, some call them “monkeys on our back.” Whatever you call them, they have the ability to make us and the people around us miserable.

How do you get rid of “toads” in your life? This book can be your weapon.

Dan and Dennis cleverly collected a series of short stories based on actual events in the lives of the many students, clients and colleagues they have worked with over the years. Each story focuses on a theme and lesson at the end of each story identifies the toad and what the main character did to overcome that very toad. These powerful examples set the overall tone for the book that helps you identify the toads you face in your own life and how you can overcome them.

Thanks, Justin!
