Abstract:
"From licensed therapist and popular Instagram relationship expert Vienna Pharaon (@mindfulmft, +631K followers) comes a profound guide to understanding and overcoming wounds from your Family of Origin-the foundation of how we relate to others, ourselves, and the world around us"-- Provided by publisher.
"None of us had a perfect childhood. We all carry around behaviors that don't serve us-- and may in fact be hurting us. Pharaon wants us to understand our "family of origin"-- the family and framework we grew up within-- and examine what worked and what didn't in that system. Armed with the knowledge of our past, we can rewire our programming to meaningfully improve our relationships and our live, now and in the future."-- Adapted from jacket.
