Purchase options and add-ons
UK bestseller, Sunday Times, December 2023
'I love Dr Nicole LePera. She helps me a lot.' GWYNETH PALTROW
'A practical and inspiring primer on how to extend true connection and love to others and to our hurting world.' DR GABOR MATE´
'A loving, patient, and powerful guide to creating happy, fulfilling life relationships of all kinds. How to Be the Love You Seek is a masterwork of awareness and compassion.' JAY SHETTY
A radical new path to revolutionise your relationships
Why are our closest relationships so often a source of more stress than solace? Whether the relationship is with a romantic partner, a parent, child, friend or colleague, the dynamic is frequently the same - you'd like the relationship to change for the better, yet nothing you try seems to work.
Author of international bestseller How to Do the Work, Dr Nicole LePera has heard these frustrating patterns of loneliness, disconnection, and resentment described time and again, both from patients in her clinical practice and from her global online community @the.holistic.psychologist. In this groundbreaking book she offers a new path to healing our relationships by tapping into the power of the heart.
How to Be the Love You Seek harnesses the latest scientific research to teach us how to recognise our dysfunctional patterns, identify their roots in our earliest relationships, break painful cycles, build security and share compassion with ourselves and others.
Through stories, exercises, journal prompts, and other practical tools, Dr LePera empowers us first to strengthen our foundation of self-love, paving the way for deeper, more harmonious connections with those around us.
When you become the love you seek, you have the power to transform every relationship, from your most intimate partnerships to the bonds that hold our communities together.

Putting others before myself wasn’t selfless; it was self-abandonment.Highlighted by 529 Kindle readers
In order to emotionally connect with another person, as I discovered years later, you have to be emotionally connected with yourself. And to be emotionally connected with yourself, you have to be able to authentically feel and express your emotions. Authentically expressing our emotions allows us to feel truly seen, known, and supported by others—core emotional needs we all share.Highlighted by 517 Kindle readers
Love, I have learned, is not about showing up in any particular way but about embodying the feeling itself, offering others the support and opportunity to be themselves, exactly as they are.Highlighted by 494 Kindle readers

Top reviews from the United Kingdom

Bought for my partner, and has helped us BOTH with our relationship and jouney.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 August 2024I bought this book for my partner as she had seen an interesting video reviewing it, and after hearing her thoughts on it, I decided to take a look myself. My partner was really impressed by how practical and encouraging the book is, especially in how it dives into the root causes of relationship challenges while offering strategies for personal growth. After reading parts of it, I have to agree with her and I personal think LePera’s ability to explain these complicated concepts and explain them to all audiences with practical, actionable steps is amazing.
LePera’s approach is both insightful and accessible, turning complex psychological concepts into actionable steps. My partner mentioned how the book blends therapeutic techniques with holistic wisdom, and I could see how that really helped her—and now me—understand the importance of self-love in improving our relationship dynamics. It’s not just a guide to better relationships; it’s a roadmap for personal healing and growth. I’m glad I picked it up for her, and even more so that it’s had such a positive impact on both of us.
With that said, some of the points in this book and what my partner has brought out of this for us, such as handling triggers, regulation of one’s emotions and feelings, had allowed me to understand how to work with her self-help progress. It has made me personally take a larger look into my past with my trauma history which I never would of realised I engage with daily in my personal journey.
Great book for understand a depth of therapeutic techniques and psychological concepts which you can bring in to your day-to-day or relationship; especially the reminders towards health and nutrition. I just think some topics are repeated a little from the parts I read.

A Support for Self-Journey
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2025This was a Christmas gift that I got for myself last year and even though it took me a long time to finish it (for personal reasons) I really enjoyed the process of it. During the time of self-development, learning and improving it was a great help and guide to support that process. Dr. Nicole LePera speaks to your soul, and opens up the doors for you to help you see your true self, find your own path and keep walking and exploring along the way. I can't wait to read her other works and get inspired.

LIFE CHANGING AND INSPIRATIONAL
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 December 2023I have followed Nicole on Instagram for some time and am the proud owner of her 3 books. This book is so empowering at so many levels, a deep wisdom and insight into our connections with others and ourselves. This book is life changing and should be on the school curriculum. Why wait to start healing a world in crisis ? By sharing her personal journey of healing, we immediately are drawn to Nicole, her honesty and compassion awakening our senses. The desire for awareness of self and breaking old patterns creates a zest for a life. Imagine living and experiencing deeper meaningful relationships, breaking old cycles is possible. Read this book to help yourself have a more harmonious existence.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK and am grateful to have the honour of absorbing the wisdom it holds.
