About this listen
Accountability is an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility for and to repair the harm caused by one’s actions. It features prominently in our relationships, personal lives, and professional lives. Everything from stealing money from work to lying to a friend to making a mistake at school that caused someone else to get in trouble to pressuring your spouse into having sex when they aren’t interested to murdering a stranger on the street - each require accountability, albeit dramatically different kinds. At its heart, accountability is understanding that your actions do not always have the impact that you intend; it is ownership of your actions, working to repair problematic issues, and learning how to prevent patterns from forming or continuing in the future.
Sometimes this is as simple as getting to know yourself and apologizing. Sometimes it’s a years-long process to recognize the motivations and behaviors that you see inside yourself and feel like you have no control over. How to Be Accountable will walk you through your own head to understand your own patterns and behaviors, untangle them, and live the kind of life you want.

Thought provoking, real and insightful
I found it very interesting and thought provoking. I did realise that my own prejudices and issues affected my receptiveness of some of the content, which leaves me the opportunity to work on those. It's a very honest and open book. I enjoyed it.

Surprised by it , really good content
Listened in Hereford England,
A really good wake up call on accountability, It was a pleasant surprise on how well this audiobook was constructed and delivered ,
Possibly. This should be given as curriculum to teens.
Either way. I got a fair bit out of it. And it’s a pleasure having it on my library
Thanks

Bordering on conspiracy thinking this one
“Systemic oppression causes mental illness” and diagnoses are just guesses based off checklists. That’s where I stopped listening. Very harmful nonsense. I skipped the chapter of her misrepresenting Jordan Peterson’s views, but it didn’t get any better. Returning this book.

Profanity unnecessarily distracting
I’m sure there are a lot of good messages in this book from the looks of other reviews, but I personally found the frequency of unnecessary profanity distracting and quite frankly damaged the credibility of the author so much I couldn’t take anything seriously after about 45 minutes of listening. A real shame, because although profanity can sometimes make the point stronger, the author’s use of it here was just off-putting.
