The Nine Asks by Kimberly Danielle is a fantastic book on helping each one of us be more aware of the people around us and how we can help create areas that are welcoming and inviting to those around us while being mindful of the impact each one of us can bring. Among the nine asks are: • Be honest and vulnerable • Respect boundaries • Offer no judgment • Maintain confidentiality • Respect the process of learning the right language • Take the time to listen first . Each 'ask' is set up to name, explain, and then goes into different 'red light' (warnings on how we can turn an environment toxic), 'yellow light' (warnings on where we are too close to crossing a line that can change the situation to a toxic one OR can turn it back to a healthy situation), and 'green light' (healthiest way possible). Each of these asks are broken down and are presented and explained very well. I believe this is a great book for anyone who is in relationships with anyone. A book for everyone, basically. Highly recommend.
