A profoundly life changing book as valuable as the journey that the author shares with us. His own transformation. The author peals back the curtain and fearlessly shows their own life changing journey. It’s raw, it’s real, and it helps you to look at your own journey in a new light.
Was I expecting it at first? No. As I continued reading I found that it was exactly what I needed. Reading his story made me question my own.
This book gives you the tools to own your power. To claim your truth by finding Zero. ⭕️
If I could tell you anything I’d tell you this. Read this book. Stop living in your small truths. Embrace your Truth. Own your story. Reclaim your power now.
My personal experience: I’ve watched my life transform ever since I read this book the first time. As soon as I finished it I sat down and followed the principles step by step. From there my world, which was filled with small truths, crumbled and I embraced zero. Looking back it’s been an evolution. I’m standing in my power and owning my truth everyday. I’ve reached zero. My life isn’t perfect but it’s changing in all the ways I’d always wanted. Excited for everyone else to experience this too! 🙏🏻 Great book.
The second and third times that I read it I went straight to the principles which are towards the back of the book and accessed new entry points to zero.

I couldn’t put it down!! Not only was the book helpful for my own life, but it also follows the author’s life with many of his own anecdotes that made this a nonstop page turner!

I fully enjoyed reading Law of Zero and loved it’s engagement through storytelling while offering transformative life lessons. Through entertaining and often deeply personal stories, the Chad, the author, illustrates how embracing and owning one’s traumas can unlock the potential to live a fuller and more meaningful life. Each chapter builds on the last, pulling you in with anticipation, eager to see what comes next.
Chad’s personal experiences are laid out not just as anecdotes, but as powerful tools for reflection. He has developed a methodology that anyone can leverage to achieve greater happiness and fulfillment. It’s not just theory—it’s practical advice rooted in real-world struggles and triumphs. The framework is actionable, relatable, and designed to empower readers to take control of their lives.
After finishing the book, I applied Chad’s methodology to rekindle a friendship that I had previously tried—and failed—to restore. His approach gave me the tools and the mindset to take ownership of my role in the disconnect and to release past frustrations. This created a new possibility, and I was able to rebuild the relationship that had once felt lost. Chad’s book gave me the framework to navigate this delicate situation, leading to a successful reconciliation.
If you’re looking for a book that entertains while offering genuine, life-changing advice, this is a must-read.

Reading Law of Zero by Chad Michael Hardy was a truly eye-opening experience for me. From the very first page, I felt like Hardy was speaking directly to my soul, encouraging me to break free from the fears and limitations I didn’t even realize were holding me back. His concept of “Zero”—a state of balance, clarity, and infinite possibility—resonated deeply, making me reflect on the areas of my life where I’ve been stuck.
What I loved most was Hardy’s raw honesty about his own journey. Growing up in a strict religious environment and struggling with his identity, he faced challenges that many of us can relate to in different ways. His vulnerability made me feel seen, and his wisdom gave me practical steps to move forward. The five principles he outlines—like taking ownership of our lives and learning to let go—aren’t just theories; they are real, actionable steps that I’ve already started applying.
If you’re feeling lost, uncertain, or trapped by expectations, Law of Zero is the guide you didn’t know you needed. It’s not just a book—it’s an invitation to step into your true power and live with authenticity.

Get your hands on this book! The idea of starting from nothing and embracing life‘s opportunities comes from such an honest place. While reading, it felt like I was listening to a friend share their story. Hardy’s insights on growth and transformation are truly inspiring and I love how he connected them to his personal experience. This book is a great reminder that with every setback there is a chance to rebuild. Definitely worth a read.
