“If you allow yourself to wind your way slowly through this book it will wrap itself around your heart and seep into your soul. There is much hard-earned and prophetic wisdom in her pages. Whilst this should be read by everyone living in Sydney its words resonate far beyond this city to the heart of what it means to be a part of the family of humanity. You won’t read this book, this book will read you…“

” I really enjoyed this book…a punchy, dark, gritty tale of descending into the dark halls of addiction hell and back out the other side into the sunlight of recovery. I’m normally a tad wary (and weary) of some of the stuff coming out of the recovery/ confessional tale-of-woe genre, but this book is made of sterner stuff and doesn’t leave much to the imagination. In short, real. Set against the background of Sydney’s eastern suburbs and the underbelly of King’s Cross the narrative voice tells the story of a young life torn to shreds by alcohol and drugs…The final chapters offer insights on all kinds of topics, from debt to love to ADHD and more, which are refreshing and based on the author’s experience, strength and hope. Well worth the read.”

“I’m so grateful that our paths crossed through your book. Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring me to be a better person. Love and light.”

“Just wanted to thank you personally for your contribution to society in penning ‘One Day One Life, the propaganda of success’. As a sober alcoholic of more than three years, Western capitalism nearly killed me. I am finally free. I quit my corporate job, now helping women suffering as a direct result of Western impairments and disabilities. Thank you again. You rock!”

“Great book. This book provides much food for thought for anyone who has asked the question of what it is to feel happiness in today’s age. To question all the things we strive towards in our life and whether that brings us happiness, or just glosses over the emptiness and isolation that many people feel….I found it hard to go more than a few pages without stumbling on a pearl of wisdom, where Dave has put in a few words something that at once seem so obvious but that no one has stated previously.”
