From New York Times bestselling author Katherine Woodward Thomas comes a radical guide to help you let go of the old version of yourself, and start living as the person you want to be today
A lot of us have been trying to “fix” ourselves for a really long time. We’ve spent years in therapy, analyzing our past, trying to heal. Yet what we focus on grows. By continually focusing on the old, wounded parts of ourselves, we inadvertently risk validating again and again the old version of our self at the heart of that narrative, and becoming overly-enmeshed with an outdated idea of who we are.
What we need is a new method of healing. One that forces us to move beyond our past and focus, instead, on our future self.

Calling in “The One” Katherine Woodward Thomas shares a transformational step-by-step roadmap to untethering people from their painful past, so we can consciously create a more authentic, healthier version of ourselves in the present.
The book is divided into two parts. Part one walks us through a seven-step process that helps us identify, investigate, and alleviate our limiting paradigms. Part two introduces us to twenty-two of the most commonly held false beliefs we have about ourselves—such as “I don't belong,” “I am not loved,” “I am too much,” “I am not wanted,”—and provides us with exercises designed to help us dismantle these false beliefs about ourselves and replace them with more empowering narratives.
We don’t need to let our past define us. Instead, by following Thomas's groundbreaking protocol, examining how we’re showing up in the present, and envisioning how we want our future to be, we can change who we are
today.
