Reviews for Surrounded by Vampires: Or, How to Slay the Time, Energy and Soul Suckers in Your Life

'With his trademark humor and practical insights, Erikson will help you vanquish the 'energy vampires' in your life-even when it turns out you're the villain! Using his wildly successful behavior-based system, you'll learn how self-awareness is the key to preserving your time, energy, and sanity-no matter what comes your way.' * Gay Hendricks, bestselling author of THE BIG LEAP * 'Thomas Erikson just gets it-this book is equal parts logical, emotionally astute, and gut-wrenchingly funny. His observations are studied in a way that don't come across as either snarky or preachy-he's one of us and sees what we have always known-vampires are real! This book gives you tools to ward off those who would try to suck out your joy. Buy it!' * Jim McPartlin, author of THE ENNEAGRAM AT WORK *
