About this listen

The beloved relationships coach, and host of the top relationships podcast Jillian on Love reveals nine core truths to self-acceptance and provides powerful self-healing techniques to help us repair our relationship with ourselves and start building the rewarding relationships we deserve.

Jillian Turecki's warm, yet no-nonsense approach to love has attracted a devoted following of millions. In this, her highly anticipated debut book, she makes clear that if you want a meaningful relationship filled with connection, security, and intimacy, you have to take responsibility. The common denominator in all your relationships is you.

Drawn on her decades of experience helping clients heal themselves and their relationships, It Begins with You introduces the 9 core truths we must accept:

Truth 1: It begins with YOU.
Truth 2: The mind is a battlefield.
Truth 3: Lust is not the same thing as love.
Truth 4: You must show up as your higher self.
Truth 5: You must speak up and tell the truth.
Truth 6: You have to love yourself.
Truth 7: You cannot convince someone to love you.
Truth 8: No one is coming to save you.
Truth 9: We must make peace with our parents.

Blending therapeutic strategies, somatic techniques, client case studies, practical tools, tips, and guiding questions, It Begins With You gives us a roadmap to finally start doing the work needed to love ourselves and find the love we deserve.

It’s eye-opening. I’m so glad I gave this book a chance.
Usually I don’t read/listen to the same book more than once, but I’ll be definitely revisiting this one!
So inspiring!

Loved everything about this book! Would highly recommend for anyone who’s on a self love/ healing journey. I was worried it might just be quotes from the Instagram account, but it is so much more than that! Listened to it in less than 48 hours.

I think the 9 truths are spot on and explained so perfectly. Honestly, even though yes it’s more aimed at a female audience, I still think it’s very relatable and helpful from a male perspective.

Many lightbulb moments and a few that are hard to take, but puts you on the reflective path.

Totally recommend this audiobook for those in a place of relationship confusion (present or post).

Brilliant listen

From the title to the conclusion, this book is all about accountability, self inquiry and reflection. The steps provide a way to navigate the journey of self inquiry to look inside and identify things in me that I must own and potentially change in order to improve the quality of my relationships. Thought provoking and thoroughly enjoyable!

Fantastic listen, would highly recommend!

Jillian has a soothing voice and uses examples of herself and clients to get across some of the patterns and difficulties in relationships. It is well structured. It is a good insight into relationship dynamics and gives the reader a good understanding of these. However theory and practice are very different and I don't believe that the book gets across how ingrained these patterns are within us and the work on our part required to unravel the chaos and trauma. It is overly simplified yet well explained. Good overview and definitely a good place to start if you find yourself lost, but not so great if you have the self awareness and struggle with the unravelling. disengaging, shame and pain that this journey ultimately requires for many. a sip of water, taking a breath and moving your body do not cut it. I would be eager for her to write another book that goes deeper. xx

Honesty and integrity
