Synopsis

In our deeply divided, binary world, honest discussion is stressful for all sides, but Africa Brooke says there is another way: the Third Perspective.

"With Africa's graceful guidance, we can all learn to own our voice, speak our minds, and to become an authentic version of ourselves." ―Nicole LePera, international bestselling author of How to Do the Work: Recognize Your Patterns, Heal From Your Past and Create Yourself

In this manifesto, Africa teaches us how to return to critical thinking and reduce societal divides by opening our minds and being more self-questioning in difficult discussions. This book will help you navigate difficult conversations. You’ll learn to share your views, hear the other side, make a point you feel must be made, and try to find common ground without self-censorship or self-sabotage. 

This personal guide helps readers move away from rigid thinking, allowing them to enter any potentially difficult discussion about politics, work, personal responsibility, race, sex, gender, religion—whatever the subject —while maintaining integrity, authenticity, and openness. Africa has built a successful business coaching an exclusive roster of high-profile clients seeking to handle themselves in the public eye. 

The tools offered in The Third Perspective have been honed over years of that experience: hers is a proven system that works. She offers readers a new path for communication that is critical to building trust and fruitful relationships. Africa Brooke’s framework has three pillars—Awareness, Responsibility, and Expression—that ask: what is stopping you from speaking your mind, what do you stand for, and what are you willing to risk?

"A true rising star and a voice that demands attention." ―Matt Haig, international bestselling author The Midnight Library

“Challenging, unapologetically honest, and immeasurably wise. Africa is the brave necessary modern antidote, for the unfortunate modern challenges our society faces.” ―Steven Bartlett, author of The Diary of a CEO
