About this listen
Imagine if you could reach new levels of happiness and joy; releasing years of shame, guilt, and stress from your life. Are you ready for a spiritual awakening and to start fully living life? You may be holding onto a Black Ball.
After childhood bullying, debt, alcohol, gambling and drugs, business mentor Simon Lovell went on a huge journey into self-help and personal transformation, but still found himself lost after investing hundreds of thousands of dollars. He was living a double life.
Finally, in 2018 he experienced a profound spiritual awakening that was captured live on Facebook, releasing 30 years of shame from a secret that he was holding deep inside. This was his “Black Ball”. It was raw, emotional, and impactful to everyone watching.
Suicide is both a major mental health and national public health issue around the globe with rates rising sharply. A person dies every 40 seconds by suicide and up to 25 times as many again make an attempt to take their life.
The Black Ball is Simon’s journey, as well as a series of courageous stories from people around the world who have released their shame and guilt and are living happier lives through the groundbreaking Black Ball process.
Simon also reveals a powerful four step process to letting go and living your best life possible.
Simon writes, “It was finally when I was willing to let go of the masks I was wearing and stop playing the character of Simon Lovell that everything changed. Now I understand personal transformation at a much deeper level because I’ve found “home”, the real Simon Lovell. Now it’s my mission to help others release their Black Ball and for them to be 100% okay with the story of their life."
Are you ready to reach huge levels of happiness?
This audiobook is for anyone who is currently feeling helpless, lost, and wants to boost their self-esteem with a motivational message as well as simple action steps to change.
It’s also for those who are currently on their personal transformation and self-help journey and want to boost their spiritual growth.

Story
How to Stop Feeling Like Sh*t is a straight-shooting self-improvement guide for women, one that offers frank advice about the most common self-destructive behaviors women engage in. Andrea Owen—a nationally sought-after life coach—crystallizes what’s behind several invisible, undermining habits, from catastrophizing and people-pleasing to listening to the imposter complex or to one’s inner critic. Powerfully on the mark, the chapters are short and digestible, nicely bypassing weighty examinations in favor of punch points of awareness.

Debbie Ford explains that the dark side of our personality should not be hidden. By denying our dark side, we reject aspects of our true natures rather than giving ourselves the freedom to live authentically. Here she shows that it is possible to acknowledge and accept our so-called weaknesses, proving that these qualities may be hidden strengths. Full of illuminating stories and practical exercises, Debbie Ford shows us how to reconcile our darker impulses and find the gifts they offer.

Story
Everything you “know” about yourself today is based on who you decided you were when you were just four or five years old. In your childhood you formed decisions about yourself before you were even capable of thinking logically. Those decisions were based on a child’s emotional survival brain, and they are the foundation of the neural pathways of thought and feelings that are instrumental in forming your identity, both positive AND negative. This is why so many people have challenges in their adult lives, especially when it comes to their personal and professional relationships.

Safely, my friend, we have to visit our shadows and darkness, because that is the only way to get the full image, the full picture, and that is where love resides - in fullness. Loving Yourself Properly is an invitation to reconnect with the outcast parts of your existence. This journey is about us making space for the outcast parts of our soul that we hide, for the parts of our personality that we are too afraid to show. This invitation is about finding your voice - the voice of passion and fire if you so dare to allow it to be ignited.

This is an audiobook for the person who is hungry for an answer. I know that feeling. That "feeling" stops us from executing one or more steps to make our lives better. I couldn't overcome that feeling either. None of the books showed me or explained where that feeling comes from, why we all get it, and how to overcome it. Without that information, I couldn't execute all of their wonderful suggestions. This audiobook bridges the gap.

Simply Powerful
This audiobook hooks you right from the beginning. The author's passion comes through in the delivery of the book. Simon's story is powerful and so relatable. We all have those moments that we don't want to share with anyone. To think about how something like that can haunt you for 30 years is sobering. More than just the stories shared by the author and others, this book gives a simple system for identifying and releasing for yourself. It is both simple and powerful. So glad this book is in my library!
