Reviews

Suzanne Gibbs writes from the heart on a topic that is so important to any relationship we value. Using her artistic talents as a visual artist, I enjoyed how she drove home her written points with her sketches. —Kim

I loved how this book encourages the use of communication to improve relationships. Throughout the book the author asks you to reflect on what you read by taking notes which I found helpful. This is a great book for anyone looking to improve/discover new ways to communicate. —E. Garcia

Suzanne writes a no holds barred book about stepping out of one's comfort zone to confront the challenges of open communication with spouse and family. She bares her soul as she helps readers navigate those spaces that crop up as we live, grow and open up honestly with the one(s) we love. Lots of food for thought and exercises to do during this journey of self reflection. Her illustrations as well as her words keep the reader company as a friend might walk you through a sensitive time in your life. —xxx

Suzanne Gibbs writes an immensely practical, hilariously bold, and entertaining journal of her life. She includes the reader in her family conversations and is Unafraid to reveal her lessons earned while learning how to be a good human being. If I were to sum up this book in one phrase, it would be, "life experience." I've used information from the book in conversations I've initiated with my partner, and the results led me to an honest conversation—which led to transparency and intimacy in my relationship. This book is a wild ride of experiences from Suzanne, and I am so glad I've read it! —xxxx

From the Author

Conscious Curiosity: Communicating to Connect was my first book. I wrote from my heart. As a married mother of two, at the time of publication I had over 22 years of experience on what it takes to make a marriage work. Soon, we will celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. I love my husband and my family. I hope to be able to share some of what has worked for me with you, the reader.

Conscious Curiosity does get personal. I felt that for readers to be able to deeply hone in on their communication skills I had to be willing to be vulnerable and show what it takes to be consciously curious on a personal day to day basis.

Thank you for considering this purchase, and if you do buy Conscious Curiosity, I wish you much happiness, love, and deeper more intimate conversations with your loved ones.

I admire your bravery for tackling the subject in such an "in your face" kind of way. Most importantly, I found a lot of your thoughts and suggestions very helpful as I look at the relationships in my life. I can honestly say many points made me stop and think about how I deal with other people and will affect how I handle situations. -- Tom S.

Having been divorced twice, I have learned the hard way that communication is key. Everybody "knows" that partners should talk and listen to each other - but HOW is hardly ever addressed. Your book indeed fills a gap - thank you! -- Sandra R.
