OverviewLiving in a dysfunctional family isn't easy. But while you can't choose where you come from, you can choose the lessons you take away. Bestselling recovery author Karen Casey looks at stories of people who grew up in dysfunctional families and ""the good stuff"" that can, ironically, come from the experience. She interviews survivors who emerged from the fires of turbulent households affected by abuse, addiction, or other problems, and reveals how they came to process their often-harrowing personal trials and, against the odds, triumph over their difficulties--using skills they honed in response to their childhoods. In The Good Stuff from Growing Up in a Dysfunctional Family, Casey reveals the stories and the skills they developed to live more creative and fulfilling lives, and not just survive but thrive. ""Using her interviews as groundwork, she explores the benefits that result from surviving in a dysfunctional family, including resiliency, perseverance, a sense of humor, forgiveness, kindness, and the ability to discern real love."" --Publishers Weekly ""You just can't go wrong with Karen Casey."" --Earnie Larson, author of Stage II Recovery Full Product DetailsAuthor: Karen Casey , Laural MerlingtonPublisher: Tantor Audio Imprint: Tantor Audio ISBN: 9798228007512Publication Date: 13 August 2024 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Audio Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
