If you’re already deeply familiar with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or books like The Big Leap (Gay Hendricks), some concepts will feel repetitive. Also, the PDF lacks the audio version’s energy (Newman narrates with great passion).
Eye-opening mindset shift, but be mindful of the format
I’d heard James Newman speak at a seminar and was curious to read Release Your Brakes . The core premise is simple but powerful: most of us drive through life with one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake, and those "brakes" are limiting beliefs, fears, and past conditioning. The PDF version is convenient and searchable, which is great for revisiting specific concepts like the "Comfort Zone vs. Growth Zone" or the "90/10 Principle."
Anyone feeling stuck, procrastinating, or achieving less than their potential – from entrepreneurs to students. It’s less about "positive thinking" and more about identifying specific psychological blocks.
