    About this audiobook

    Button-pushers come in all shapes and sizes, but they have one thing in common: Their behavior drives us crazy and makes us dream of ways to escape the mess we're in. The person who pushes your buttons is likely someone who matters to you-a spouse, a parent, a boss, a fellow church member. Almost always the difficult person is connected to you by blood, love, faith, or money, so you can't just end the relationship without causing pain and upheaval in your life. Our friends and today's culture will often advise us to abandon such relationships quickly-to end this unpleasant chapter and get on with our lives. "Your button-pusher is not someone you would easily and casually leave. You are intertwined at many levels. It is worth the trouble to take a look at the ways the relationship you had, and want, can be revived and reborn." This audio book offers expert insights to help you understand your own button-pusher, wise assistance in determining the nature of the problem, compassionate help in identifying your failed attempts to fix things, a hope-filled vision for what can be and how to make it come true, and rich resources to help you navigate the necessary changes.

      Very helpful and hopeful insights, even for the non believer. I highly recommend Dr Townsend’s books.

      This turned my life around from being involved with a very toxic boyfriend. I had tools and understanding of what I was dealing with to ease pain and find my way to being safe from his “button pushing”.
