You've been following rules you never agreed to.

They were written in silence, during a moment of fear, a need to belong, a desperate bid for safety. And now, years or decades later, you're still enforcing them. Still managing everyone's emotions while ignoring your own. Still performing perfection to earn love. Still swallowing truths that need to be spoken.

These are your silent agreements: the unspoken contracts that govern your relationships with more power than any promise made out loud. They're the reason you can't say no. The reason you're exhausted. The reason you feel like a stranger to yourself.

In Silent Agreements, author Kim Aronson reveals:

The four archetypal agreements that trap us (and how to identify which ones you're living under)
Why resentment is diagnostic data, not a character flaw, and how to use it as a compass
The exact scripts for renegotiating relationships without burning them down
How to survive the vulnerability hangover that follows speaking your truth
When a relationship can only exist because of silence, and how to leave with integrity

Drawing on psychology, attachment theory, and hard-won personal insight, this book is for anyone who's ever felt invisible in their own life. For the Caretaker who can't stop fixing. For the Performer who can't stop achieving. For the secret-keeper who's tired of pretending.

The silent agreements are costing you everything. It's time to renegotiate.
