INHERITED Libri GmbH The Playing Field- Inherited Not Chosen

How to stop playing life by other people's rules - and start winning your own game
Have you been living by rules you never agreed to?
Every person alive is living by a set of rules. The problem is that most people never chose their rules - they inherited them before they were old enough to ask whether those rules were true, fair, or even meant for them. In this powerful first book of The Playing Field Series, Leora - who grew up in Zimbabwe carrying rules she never agreed to - takes readers on an honest, warm, and deeply practical journey through the invisible instructions that have been running their lives. From the pot that was too heavy to the shop she walked away from, she writes from the inside of the experience she is describing. Each of the seven chapters explores a different dimension of inherited rules - the silence that was imposed, the labour that was demanded, the love that came with hidden invoices, the opportunities fear took, and the body that held it all. And each chapter ends with six practical activities and writing space so readers work through their own lives, not just someone else's story. If you have ever felt that the life you are living was not entirely the one you would have chosen - this book is where the work begins.
