Gratitude and Trust

Praise

A New York Times Relationships Bestseller


“This amazing book is about a revolutionary concept—recovery for the non-addict, for those who have longed for what their recovering friends have: a spiritual path, healthy company, and a little light to see by. Paul Williams and Tracey Jackson have great insight into our shared problems, solutions, humanity, craziness, and dreams. Plus, they will make you laugh, and give you hope, that recovery—starting over—is for everyone who has imagined a life of immediacy, honesty, and joy.”
—Anne Lamott

“Witty and modern.”
—Marc Spitz, VanityFair.com

“Paul and Tracey have come up with a brilliant insight: recovery is not just for addicts. Why should our friends in recovery be the only ones to benefit from this time-tested wisdom? I’ll take some too, please. If you read this book, you’ll feel better by page 5 or thereabouts. And by page 51, you’ll be underlining passages and making notes in the margins – at least if you’re like me. It helped me change the way I think, eat, feel, even do my housework. My deep gratitude to Paul and Tracey for writing this book that will help millions.”
—A.J. Jacobs, author of The Know-It-All

“Self-help books can be so woo woo and annoying. Gratitude and Trust is the brilliant exception. This life-affirming book is bursting with wicked insights, bravado and wit.”
—Simon Doonan, author of The Asylum

“Reading Gratitude and Trust is like a long sit-down with a couple of very smart, funny, plain-spoken friends who have been through some hard times, and are here to help you avoid the same pitfalls. This is a generous and insightful book.”
—Dani Shapiro, author of Slow Motion

“The affirmations address spiritual and practical needs… [Gratitude and Trust] may come at a time when our increasingly obsessive and addictive culture revels in escapism in the form of video games, binge show watching, overating, and the many varieties of diversion on the Internet.”
—East Hampton Star

“What a great gift – Christmas, Hanukah, holidays – to give Gratitude and Trust.”
—Oprah Winfrey, Super Soul Sunday

“Personal and powerful… An amazing book.”
—Kathie Lee Gifford
