JoAnne's Story

“I want you to know that you have helped save a woman’s sanity. I am a former nurse and mother of three adults. Two of them, ages 22 and 26, are still living at home (due to the economy) and my husband has just taken early retirement from an executive position with a pharmaceutical company. I found myself being used up, taken for granted, and the butt of everyone’s criticism when things didn't run smoothly. I wondered where I'd gone wrong until a close friend loaned me your book. Reading it was an enlightening experience! I'm now on my way to pulling myself out of the hole I dug myself into by being too much of a Giver. You have accomplished what expensive psychiatric therapy sessions may have cost me to regain my self-esteem. Thank you for being there.”
