Sinossi
As a former police detective, hostage negotiator and international peacekeeper, J. Paul Nadeau spent more than thirty years working with victims and perpetrators and learning from top experts in abuse situations, murder investigations, hostage-takings, terrorist attacks and human behaviour in general. As a survivor of physical and emotional abuse by an alcoholic father, he experienced first-hand the loss of hope and destructive internal dialogue that can immobilize a person as effectively as any prison.
In Take Control of Your Life, Nadeau combines his personal experiences and insights from his many years in the field to help us overcome the self-sabotaging thoughts and attitudes that prevent us from becoming our best selves and achieving our dreams to the fullest.

Dalla quarta di copertina
Former police detective, hostage negotiator and international peacekeeper J. Paul Nadeau spent more than thirty years working with victims and perpetrators and learning from top experts in abuse situations, murder investigations, hostage-takings, terrorist attacks and human behavior in general. Over the course of his career, Nadeau talked hostage-takers into giving themselves up and murderers into admitting to their crimes. And because of his extensive training and the techniques he has developed, he survived a terror attack in the Middle East.
As accomplished as Nadeau’s career has been, his life has been equally influenced by events in his youth that were beyond his control. As a survivor of physical and emotional abuse by an alcoholic father, he experienced first-hand the loss of hope and destructive internal dialogue that can immobilize a person as effectively as any prison. Nadeau has made it his mission to guide others through the thoughts and experiences in their lives that hold them hostage, whether it’s overcoming a bad marriage, adjusting to an unexpected career change or dealing with other traumas and setbacks, and he has spoken to thousands of people—in large audiences and one-on-one—about what they can do not only to overcome their fears and challenges but also to confidently step forward into a new life.
In Take Control of Your Life, Nadeau combines his personal experiences and insights from many years in the field to help us overcome the self-sabotaging thoughts and attitudes that prevent us from becoming our best selves and fully achieving our dreams.
