Ordered your book a few days.  It's hard to read on Kindle without my wife catching me. Any plans for audio book? And thanks for all the hard work, I also told my therapist about your book.

Thanks, Clark.

An audiobook is a good idea. I will ask Springer how that would work and whether it is possible.
In the meantime, I have started adapting some chapters into free essays, available on my website https://leandroloriga.com/media-news/.

I am cross-posting them also on Medium and Substack
