Valerie Mason-John is one of those rare people who has not only explored many departments of hell... she has also found her own way out of them. Here she draws on her own life, personal stories, and current work as an anger management trainer to explore why we become angry, resentful and revengeful, and how we can transform toxins like anger, hatred and fear.
