Description

A compelling life journey, told in a mosaic of stories, from one of the leaders of the Adult Children of Alcoholics movement.

Communication is more than an exchange of information. Words can inspire, teach important lessons, and woven together offer a legacy to those that we love for generations to come. Sharon Wegscheider-Cruse, who has brought hope and healing to millions of people through her work as a family therapist, co-founder of the National Association of Children of Alcoholics, acclaimed author, and conference presenter invites readers to join her as she recounts her remarkable life. Included are tales of celebrity, culture, humor, history, questions, relationships, surprises, spirituality, traditions, and travels. She then invites readers to then go deep within, to realize the wonder of their own life experiences, and to craft their own legacy of stories. Everyone has a story . . . what is yours
