I just started reading The Gift of Fear last night when I went to bed and couldn't put it down. I read almost half of the book before I made myself stop and go to sleep. Wow. This is a must read, especially for women of *all* ages, but I think men would benefit as well, if only to understand the feelings and real life threats that their mother, sister, daughter, wife, girlfriend face almost daily. I'd say it's also a great 'reminder' for seniors also, as some of the tactics and deceptions described certainly apply to that vulnerable group. Thank you Gavin.
Thank you for doing this masterclass!!! I have talked to people about your book since the 1st time I saw you on Oprah. I started to talk to my daughter about trusting her intuition since she could understand. Now she has the age for reading your book and I am planning to give it as a gift to each one of her female friends (with their parent's permit of course). This topic is the most important and can not thank you enough for sharing all this information. Your knowledge has been a compass in my life 🙏
Gavin is amazing. I would love to shake his hand and give him a hug. I appreciate his vulnerability in sharing his own experiences with violence. That's what sets him apart from all other male 'experts' on violence against women. I've read thousands of nonfiction books. GOF is one of very few I would recommend to everyone I know and anyone who might be receptive to the hard truths he presents about how our culture silences women.
I'm watching this series for the third time because I just read about P. Diddy's brutal assault of Cassy Ventura caught on security camera. This is the beginning of my comments on articles about the story: "THIS BOOK SAVES LIVES: Gavin deBecker’s The Gift of Fear And Other Survival Signals That Protect Us From Violence (1999). I agree with Oprah's review: 'Every woman in America needs to read this book.' I would take it further...every teenager and adult...everywhere. It helped me process my childhood abuse and find my voice as a woman in a culture that constantly tells women to be quiet."

Best book I have ever read.

This topic is so fascinating to me. I already own 2 copies of the book (one for loaning out and one just for me) I LOVE that this Master Class exists!
I have the book & even though it was written years ago, I went thru it in one day.
Thank you for sharing
