Connection is something many of us long for, but staying connected without losing ourselves can feel far less intuitive. In The Balancing Act, therapist and bestselling author Nedra Glover Tawwab explores what it means to build relationships rooted in both closeness and self-trust. This book invites us to look more closely at how we show up in relationships. Nedra writes about healthy dependency, emotional intimacy, and the patterns that often shape how we give, receive, and ask for support. With clarity and compassion, she helps untangle the tension between needing others and honoring your own boundaries.
Rather than offering rigid rules, The Balancing Act provides language and perspective. It encourages reflection around attachment, communication, and self awareness, helping readers recognize where old habits may be limiting connection and where new choices can create more ease and honesty.
This book is for anyone learning how to stay connected without self abandonment. For those who want deeper relationships while remaining grounded in who they are. It is a thoughtful guide for navigating connection with more balance.
