Maybe it’s not you… maybe it’s them!

In Maybe it's Them, celebrated life coach and bestselling author Lauren Handel Zander delivers a radically honest, no holds barred examination of the power of surrendering control, shedding toxic environments and people to find the path back to oneself.

Her first book, Maybe it’s You, helped readers tackle their personal issues with her signature no-nonsense style of coaching, the same method that helped Zander form her wildly successful business. But when Zander was faced with burnout, a divorce after twenty-two years of a seemingly solid marriage, and people who robbed her own business out from under her, her world came crashing down. Surprisingly, once alone and living on her own terms, she came to realize that maybe it’s NOT her after all. Maybe it’s them.

Now, in Maybe it’s Them, Zander explains how she rebooted and rewired her thinking, presenting new, practical methods that will help you be true to yourself, stop lying, and finally face the people in your life who don’t want the best for you.

By helping readers identify the core beliefs they learn early on in their family bubble, as well as the flawed inner dialogue they develop along the way, Maybe It’s Them teaches you that while you can’t control other people—their lying, taking, gossiping, and more—you can learn how to protect yourself from their toxic behavior. Zander offers a candid and uncensored manifesto for letting go of the people holding you back and living the life you were meant to live.
