My dear friend Buffi Duberman wrote a book called You Are the Best Thing That’s Ever Happened to You. The book contains 26 lessons designed to help readers live a lighter and brighter life.
Each lesson is infused with Buffi’s unique mix of humor, wisdom, and a deep understanding of how to empower others.
When Buffi Duberman first told me about her idea for You Are the Best Thing That’s Ever Happened to You, I knew it would be something special. Buffi isn’t just a coach, a teacher, or a writer—she’s a force of nature. She has this magical way of making you believe in yourself, even on the days when you feel like you can’t muster the strength to try.
This book is pure Buffi: authentic, witty, and full of life. It’s not just a collection of advice; it’s 26 lessons wrapped in her signature humor, honesty, and wisdom. Every page feels like she’s right there with you, cheering you on, reminding you to lighten up and embrace your brilliance.
One of the things I love most about the book is how Buffi gently nudges you to reframe how you see yourself. She doesn’t preach; she shares. She draws from her own ups and downs, turning them into lessons we can all relate to. Each chapter is like a conversation with a friend who really gets it—a friend who’s been there, made it through, and is now handing you the tools to do the same.
What stands out is the way Buffi champions self-love, not as a lofty ideal but as a practice, a mindset, and, most importantly, a gift you can give yourself. In a world that so often focuses on what’s wrong with us, this book is a breath of fresh air. It’s a reminder that we’re not just enough—we’re amazing, messy, complicated, and utterly worth celebrating.
You Are the Best Thing That’s Ever Happened to You is Buffi’s way of handing us a mirror, saying, “Look at you. You’re incredible.” It’s uplifting, practical, and deeply personal—everything I’d expect from Buffi. If you’re looking for a book that will not only brighten your day but maybe even change the way you see yourself, this is the one. Trust me, Buffi’s got your back.
