Connie Bennett liked Arshiya Sultana's review of The Mountain Is You: Transforming Self-Sabotage Into Self-Mastery: "It talks about self-sabotage. Brianna explains the root causes, triggers and recommends actions to help you transform self-sabotage into self-mastery. She believes that the only thing stopping you is YOU. Highly overrated.

“Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?”
