About the Book
Why do we find ourselves repeating the same inner patterns again and again?
Why is it so difficult at times to feel our own worth, so that we constantly compare ourselves to others?
How can we free ourselves from the fear of mistakes, dependence on other people’s opinions, and lingering regrets?
What happens to us during periods of adaptation, and how can we recognize when we are being manipulated?
We read books on these subjects and recognize ourselves in other people’s stories, yet still feel that something is missing that will make real inner change happen.

This book offers a new approach
to self-exploration — through metaphors.
Here, metaphors become translators
of emotions, containers for multiple layers
of meaning, and tools for inner work.
Inside this book, you will find:
Dialogues from coaching sessions.
Original metaphors created by the author.
Fresh perspectives on familiar concepts such as
self-worth, boundaries, relationships, success,
public opinion, procrastination, manipulation,
and many other.
The author’s observations.
Questions for self-reflection.
