Winner of the Literary Titan Gold Book Award To Be You or Not to Be You? What a Silly Question. From the day we are born, our culture embeds in us a system for navigating life. Know challenges these societal rules and expectations, illuminating how The Model, or control, traps us in a seemingly unbreakable cycle and leaves us living for a false sense of security. Based on over twenty-two years of observational research, author Amy Cerny Vasterling reveals how our social hierarchy stunts personal growth, suppresses us into conformity, and disallows all people to thrive. Know explores how we became disconnected from ourselves, resulting in anxiety, limitations, and more—while reclaiming our personal knowing leads us to freedom. Learn how to break free from the tenets keeping you stuck so you can trust yourself and navigate life with clarity and confidence. Know offers a path to who we truly are and shows how, when we attend to this work, our shared result is natural equality. The journey begins within and ends as we bring ourselves to life.
