Book cover of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents

Aliza Sherman Author Of The Happy, Healthy Nonprofit: Strategies for Impact without Burnout

From my list on self-care to heal deep wounds.

Why am I passionate about this?

Everyone experiences stress, loss, grief, and disconnection in life. We often feel isolated and alone in our sorrow and pain. For many years, I’ve shared openly about my personal challenges, starting in 2003 with my Babyfruit blog about my multiple miscarriages to the speeches I’ve given around the world in the 90s, to several of the books I’ve written. Through storytelling, I try to turn my heartbreak into lessons—to turn my pain into tangible steps that can help others navigate hard things and feel less alone. Helping others is part of my healing process.

Aliza Sherman Why Aliza loves this book

As adults, we don’t always realize how our childhoodand our parentshave played a major role in how we feel about ourselves and our relationships. This is not about blaming parents but realizing how we may not have learned important aspects of healthy relationships because of our upbringing.

Unknown Author Why Tony loves this book

It covered the German defeat in France, through pointing out that American and British planes demoralised the Germans in the same way that the Germans had demoralised the rest of Europe, through the use of Stuka bombers and Blitzkrieg tactics on the ground. It also pointed out that the Germans had lost out to the fresh American and Canadian troops, plus refreshed British elements, in an overwhelming flood of soldiers, tanks, planes, bombardment by sea and air, plus ammunition and food supplies. Another thing it hammered away at was that the Germans were battle hardened and continually counter attacked the allies, slowing down their advance. The Germans 'could' have thrown the allies back into the sea but for serious military blunders by those higher up the command chain.
