Dr. Luana Marques
About this listen
"If you’re timid when you should be tough and resigned when you should be resolute, this book is the antidote. Drawing on her own life story along with a stack of research, Dr. Luana Marques will help you break free from limiting patterns and create a life of meaning and purpose.”
— Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestseller author of Drive, When, and The Power of Regret
Turn your anxiety into strength with Harvard-based psychotherapist Dr. Luana Marques’ 3-step method to living boldly—her clinically-proven approach inspires her clients from CEOs to at-risk teens and echoes lessons learned growing up in challenging circumstances in Brazil.
Bold Move is Harvard-based psychotherapist Dr. Luana Marques’ unique, tried and tested method to get you out of your rut and give you the courage to create a more confident and meaningful life. Dr. Luana pinpoints the anxiety at the root of avoidance and shows you how to overcome it and achieve your goals.
Dr. Luana understands anxiety. After decades of research, teaching, and clinical practice, she realized that the coping techniques she learned from her mother and grandmother while growing up in challenging circumstances in Brazil mimicked science-based CBT therapy. Now, she has synthesized that knowledge, developing a 3-step path that works for everyone—from teens in crisis to executives experiencing burnout.
Bold Move includes concrete examples and exercises backed by the most recent clinical and scientific research. Dr. Luana’s 3-step plan:
· Helps you recognize thinking patterns that leave you feeling tense, anxious, and worried
· Outlines the many forms that avoidance can take
· Explains the importance of being your own “thought lawyer”
· Shows you why “just do it” doesn’t get it done.
· Strategizes how you can build on your values to establish boundaries and make room for your dreams
A blend of Unwinding Anxiety, Don’t Believe Everything You Think, and Do Hard Things, Bold Move is a groundbreaking, transformative program that works for everyone. This book will be invaluable for people looking to jumpstart their dreams and for clinicians working with a diverse client community.

In the ever more competitive race to secure the best possible future, today’s students face unprecedented pressure to succeed. They jam-pack their schedules with AP classes, fill every waking hour with resume-padding activities, and even sabotage relationships with friends to “get ahead.” Family incomes and schedules are stretched to the breaking point by tutoring fees and athletic schedules. Yet this drive to optimize performance has only resulted in skyrocketing rates of anxiety, depression, and even self-harm in America’s highest achieving schools.

Does it feel like your life is too busy, your days are too short, and you're feeling overworked, overstressed, and overtired? Chances are you’ve asked your doctor for help, only to be told that it’s because of your age, or your workload, or, worse, that it’s just “normal.” If so, you’re not alone. Women of all ages are suffering from an epidemic of fatigue and burnout. But exhaustion doesn’t have to be your new normal.

We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

Supporting the people you love as they go after what they want in life. Imagine if you gave that same love and encouragement to yourself. Or even better, you made it a daily habit. You'd be unstoppable. In this book, Mel teaches you how to start high fiving the most important person in your life, the one who is staring back at you in the mirror: YOURSELF.

How do we make and keep friends in an era of distraction, burnout, and chaos, especially in a society that often prizes romantic love at the expense of other relationships? In Platonic, Dr. Marisa G. Franco unpacks the latest, often counterintuitive findings about the bonds between us—for example, why your friends aren’t texting you back (it’s not because they hate you!), and the myth of “friendships happening organically” (making friends, like cultivating any relationship, requires effort!).

In this groundbreaking book, clinical psychologist and mind-body expert Dr. Scott Lyons turns the notion of the “drama queen” on its head, showing that drama is actually an addiction and those who are suffering with it are experiencing a much deeper psychological, biological, and social pain. Rather than dismiss addiction to drama as just attention-seeking, Dr. Lyons offers clear-eyed empathy, humor, and practical strategies to help us all understand and break free of the drama cycle.

Bold Move: Psychology Tools for All
As a psychologist and a Ph.D. student, I found "Bold Move: A 3-Step Plan to Transform Anxiety into Power" by Dr. Luana Marques to be profoundly insightful. This book's real strength lies in its universal appeal - it serves as an enlightening guide for everyone, not just academics, who are interested in learning the tools to manage anxiety, stress, anger, and other aspects of psychological avoidance.
Dr. Marques, a renowned Harvard professor, brilliantly demystifies complex concepts from psychology and neuroscience, making them accessible to all. Her blend of professional and personal experiences offers an invaluable combination of knowledge and relatability.
I found the audiobook version particularly engaging, thanks to Dr. Marques's dynamic narration. I am now eager to delve into the printed copy. Whether you're an experienced mental health professional or a curious newcomer to the subject, "Bold Move" is an indispensable addition to your library. Step into this insightful book and gain a fresh understanding of what it means to be bold.

Transformative, Inspiring, Empowering
This book is a game-changer for me. Luana Marques - I want you to know that Bold Move has given me the tools to leave a job that, while aligned with commitment to providing legal services to low-income and no-income individuals with psychiatric disabilities, was simultaneously misaligned with my desire to work in, and contribute to, an organization that is committed to creating and maintaining a safe and supportive work environment. For the last 2-3 years, I invested countless hours and emotional energy trying to change the organizational culture and persuade senior management to be more transparent and humane - to incorporate trauma-informed into its management and HR policies, practices and procedures. I failed at every juncture and, worse, it affected my energy and ability to be present, joyful, and generous in my personal relationships and I lost my resilience. I have a bold vision now, as a result of listening to this book and engaging in the writing exercises. I have a calm heart and a clear mind. I feel capable of approaching and tolerating the fear and discomfort of the major transformations needed to live boldly, to live a life that aligns with my values. My bold vision begins with resigning from my job, which I am doing today.

Review from a Psychologist
I absolutely loved this book. I have a foundation in CBT but the way that Dr. Marques explains it is exceptional. Additionally, she weaves client and personal stories into the book in such a way that is seamless and elegant, and continuously engaging. A wonderful book - I will be recommending it to my clients.

Great ideas and intentions, moderate delivery
There is no lack of enthusiasm for a good cognitive challenge here. Luana is being helpful, and candid, and warm. However, it falls short of invigorating or inspiring in the way these uncomfortable tasks for growth require. Love the author, appreciate the book, but wish I had felt more powerful calls to action.

A practical journey towards growth and fulfillment
Listening to "Bold Move" is an experience that goes far beyond the realms of a typical audiobook. What sets it apart is the personal touch of Dr. Luana Marques herself, who takes on the role of narrator (and protagonist). This creates an intimate atmosphere, as if engaging in a heartfelt conversation with a trusted friend or mentor. Marques' voice exudes authenticity and warmth, effortlessly enhancing the relatability of her stories and advice. However, this audiobook is not just about emotional experience. It excels in its practicality, offering a plethora of hands-on strategies that can be immediately applied to one's life. Marques has a remarkable ability to break down complex psychological concepts into actionable steps, transforming the content into something accessible and beneficial for everyone seeking positive change. Through relatable anecdotes and straightforward guidance, "Bold Move" becomes more than just an educational listen; it becomes an inspiration. The amalgamation of personal narration, relatable content, and evidence-based guidance transforms "Bold Move" into a great resource for those navigating life's challenges. With this audiobook, listeners can confidently face their own journeys, armed with the tools and knowledge to make bold moves towards personal growth and fulfillment.

Some inherent biases in the writing. Returned this title by the second chapter. Do not recommend due to logical fallacies.
