“Apology gives us the authority to determine our own future, free of the fear, resentment, and guilt we feel from broken relationships. It makes us people of our word, people who can be trusted, people who are ready for real love.”
In The Glory of Groveling, authors Jason Feddy and Michael Waldman deliver a refreshingly honest, surprisingly practical, and often humorous guide to personal liberation through the art of apology and forgiveness. With their signature blend of insight and irreverence, they offer a six-and-a-half step program designed to help readers drop their pride, own their mistakes, and find emotional freedom.
This is not your average self-help book. Feddy and Waldman take aim at the ego’s favorite defense mechanisms—deflection, denial, blame—and replace them with simple, actionable tools to repair relationships and release resentment. Whether you’re navigating a rocky marriage, tense work dynamic, or the silent guilt of past missteps, The Glory of Groveling invites you to rethink strength, rediscover humility, and learn the surprising joy of making things right.
With real-life stories, accessible exercises, and just the right amount of sass, this book is a must-read for anyone ready to trade defensiveness for connection and bitterness for peace.
Praise for The Glory of Groveling
"While Michael Waldman has a track record of highly successful management consulting, I know him to be also effective in dealing with personal situations where the cause is unclear and the solution is unknown. I look forward to benefiting from my own applications of the recommendations in this book.”
—Werner Erhard
"The Glory of Groveling is a book much more profound than the title implies. Michael and Jason use apology as a means of reconnecting with people around us and ourselves. The steps they offer provide a healing path that not only connects with others, but carries the gift of our own liberation. I strongly recommend this book not only for its message but also for the modest and accessible way it is written."
—Peter Block, bestselling author of Flawless Consulting and The Answer to How is Yes
“Jason Feddy and MichaelWaldman's The Glory of Groveling presents apology not as weakness but as neurological transformation. . . . The book is a unique synthesis of 12-step wisdom, executive coaching, and phenomenological philosophy.”
—Joe Ferguson, PhD/MBA, clinical psychologist and philosopher
