“Being outraged simply isn’t enough. This book offers helpful tools for transforming outrage into action!”

“I don’t write reviews. I made an exception. If you only read one book this year, this is the one to read. It’s amazing! I’m recommending this book to everyone I know now. As I’ve been reading, I’ve been trying not to underline everything, but it is difficult not to. Don’t let the title fool you! This isn’t a book for just anti-trump people, it is a’ how to talk to people’ with people you disagree with. As Americans, we have become so divided. Emotionally Trumped Out gives practical applications as to how to get back to being able to talk about our differences without turning into a battle. No matter what side you’re on, this book lays down paths to help in understanding each other. Honestly, I contacted the Author and asked her if she would do a companion book that would allow for the reader to write and reflect in the book. It’s that good. I highly recommend this book.“

“I have read your book, and found it to be exactly what one of your reviewers suggested, “A Guide through the Chaos”. You have been a breath of fresh air, a level headed person, aiming higher than what some people are in this divisive, political climate. Those of us who truly wish to have meaningful dialogue and help promote kindness, compassion, equality, etc., are doing our work. We may not sit in a politician’s chair, but we do have the opportunity to campaign, vote, and support the candidates who DO reflect common decency and what we value. We do have people in our lives with whom we can encourage, uplift, and demonstrate that the fear which is promoted, encouraged, and displayed in this administration and many of the churches supporting them is a dead end. Fear seeks destruction, divisiveness, hatred, and fails all of humanity. Thank you for being a beacon of light, for being the face of courage. God knows the ugliness of what some readers post on your social media is a reflection of their angry, hurting heart ensnared in fear. Through your kind responses, you demonstrate constructive dialogue. We need more of that.”

“I have been on edge since 11/7/2016. In three days, your book has helped me so much. I feel much calmer and have been able to have several reasonable conversations. I can’t thank you enough!”

“Your book has been a godsend! After Donald Trump was elected, I found myself in a very dark place and becoming the kind of person that I despise (hateful, angry, and self-righteous).  I am currently listening to it through Audible. Your insights and examples have helped me to better understand my feelings about the current political atmosphere, and have inspired me to put those feelings toward productive action rather than feeding my anger in ways that only fuel the fire. What a gift for ANYONE trying to heal from the divide! Thank you!!!”

“Bravo, Diane Altomare, for igniting our repair buttons in the middle of a country at odds with itself. Go deep inside and identify your trigger button. Access it, heal it, and use it to turn the chaos into peace. This shadow work is exactly what we need to heal a nation. Read the book. Practice the philosophy. Find peace within. Thank you for this home run, Diane! This fan can’t get enough!”

“Finding internal peace… I was so happy to get a hold of this book. My days have been consumed with stress, anxiety, anger, and worry all around the current political climate in this country. I have been at a loss on how to handle these emotions until this remarkable book came along. I am learning how to understand my feelings as well as others, and most importantly, I’m learning how to find peace within myself and use my emotions in a pure, positive, and productive way. I’m so thankful for the wisdom and guidance in this book.”

“Diane takes us from outraged and exhausted to productive and hopeful. A must read for so many of us who feel helplessly stuck in our feelings of anger.“

“I absolutely love love love this book! So many emotions are being unearthed by the political climate right now. Diane’s book helps to wake us up from the fighting and leads us to being inspiring instead. Thank you for this incredible book. What a gift!”
