I really enjoyed this book. The author shares her story and how kindness has opened doors and created opportunities for her.

I loved her side notes that she shared at the opening of each chapter. They added a nice personal touch to the book and it felt like the author was speaking directly to me in those moments.

This will definitely be a book that I would read again, while highlighting important points and taking notes.

I received this audio book for free in exchange for an honest review from the publisher and Netgalley.

What a kind thing I did for myself by listening to this audiobook written and narrated by Adrienne Bankert. Your Hidden Superpower is all about the positive impact that being kind to others has on ourselves, others, and the world.

Bankert focused a lot of her professional career when it came to this story. She demonstrated over and over how kindness makes you stand out among others in an impactful way. She illustrated over and over how being kind to others somehow has this mysterious way of turning the tables and bestowing kindness on to you by others. I think the biggest lesson for me was the difference between being kind and being nice. Often people, including myself, make them interchangeable or the same gesture.

At first, I was unsure about the narration, but I REALLY wanted to hear what Bankert had to say. Some of her talking sounds like she is speaking from a stage in an arena, to a mass group of people. Almost like you are sitting among thousands of people listening to a motivational talk. It’s not good or bad, just a personal preference. Sometimes it sounded more intimate. What did come through loud and clear throughout the entire book, was her passion, and love for the subject, and the kindness she wants to continue to shine on others. I think having her narrate it was a fabulous choice. Her genuine spirit comes through.

I feel this book was so impactful and has the opportunity to change so many lives that is should be required reading for the human population. I am not normally a motivational, self development book reader, but this book is a must read!

I received an advanced audiobook copy from HarperCollins Leadership through NetGalley. All opinions are 100% my own.

They say that coincidences are actually opportunities, and I think it must be true. I'm currently going through a rough time in my life and although I'm only twenty-five, as of late I would describe myself as... "bitter." So when I listened through Your Hidden Superpower, I realized that it was a much needed wake-up call for me right when I needed it. And for that I'm eternally grateful to Adrienne Bankert.

The premise of this book is simple: kindness can open many doors, even though being selfishly competitive is often portrayed as a path to success. This principle is explored in depth and in many practical ways, and it can be attributed to many areas in life, both professional and personal.

Again, I can't believe I let myself become so selfish and bitter, so I'm beyond thankful that this audiobook made its way into my hands. I hope to re-listen to it some time in the future, especially because I really like the narrator, The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that I wish it was longer and provided more practical advice.

*Thank you to the Publisher for a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

I listened to this audiobook and Adrienne's personality really shone through. Her advice on getting along with people and that being one of the top things to open up opportunities was spot on. I enjoy watching Adrienne on Good Morning America and this book is exactly what I would expect from her, as she comes across as very positive!
