This is a wonderful collection of inspiring stories celebrating the power of ritual and positive habits in our lives. I gobbled up the stories, completely transported to the different circumstances and each writer's celebration of how they brought joy into their lives by trying something new. Stories are worth a thousand worthy words. The earnest theory of behaviour change becomes colourful and moving when told as a story about a real person's life. Thank you to Fleur and all the wonderful storytellers for giving us this volume. Highly recommended!

It's easy to lose perspective, but North Star Habits shows us how to find our footing again in the humblest and sometimes most hilarious ways. Seventeen distinct and dynamic tales explore how we can overcome adversity, push beyond our limits and change our paths through the simplest rituals and transformative habits. It makes you feel excited about what you may find in the bottom your next bowl of homemade soup or within the expansive ocean if you take a brave dip!
