"The generosity in the material that is shared, ... Read morethe power in the stories, the vulnerability and honesty in the case studies makes this book an exciting and compelling read that brings you face to face with your own learning edge of working with crisis. This book stretches the assumptions of what it is to coach."
Dr Alison Whybrow, Chartered Psychologist and Coach
"The idea of this book was initially a little daunting, as I wasn't sure how coping with crisis was something I wanted to be drawn towards. Rather than uncomfortable reading, it's inspiring. To connect with so many real and relatable stories of people's triumph in almost impossible experiences caused me to wonder - what would I do in this situation? Liz's research and references are comprehensive and it's a read I think most coaches would get something from."
Julie Starr, Director, Starr Consulting and author of The Coaching Manual
