medium-paced
Sonya Renee Taylor writes in a way that feels like she's chatting with you over coffee, like she's that friend that cares about you deeply and "that's why you gotta change something, pal". She takes the notions of 'self-love' and 'self-confidence' that we're all familiar with and uses them as gateway terms for a belief/thought system that is so much more powerful and fertile for growth. Emphasizing the necessity for both strong, healthy, and considerate intrapersonal AND interpersonal relationships, Taylor genuinely gives you hope for a future that is better in all manner of ways.
