Kevin Lehman reveals much more about himself than members of this profession usually do. He has the temperament of a preacher and does not hide his convictions.

But this is just an inclination, not a doom. This is a path that life can take, but does not have to take.”
The book of a psychologist-TV presenter is not the same as the book of just a psychologist. Kevin Lehman reveals much more about himself than members of this profession usually do. He has the temperament of a preacher and does not hide his convictions.

Genuine treasures will suddenly shine in front of you, which will tell you about the good sides of your nature.
