I wanted to share a Press Release for a new book The Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover Four Steps To Bring Back The Love I will be reviewing as the Author of The Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover Shares Four Steps to Help Heal the Family Dynamic.
SARASOTA, Fla. — Mothers and daughters already knee-deep in drama and those who want to keep trouble at bay will find a wealth of practical insights on communication, conflict resolution and reconciliation in the new book, The Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover.
Written by mother-daughter duo Leslie and Lindsey Glass, The Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover is a compelling, vulnerable exploration into communication styles, common areas of conflict, triggers, healing, and so much more, using their own difficult past as the backstory.
“The main message is that we want to love each other, and we want to be loved,” Leslie Glass said. “We can find a way to do that if we understand more about ourselves and more about the other person. You can make your situation better, no matter what situation you’re in.”
In their book, Leslie Glass, a bestselling author, and Lindsey Glass, an award-winning documentarian, get candid about their tumultuous relationship and share the formula that helped them reconnect after being estranged for four years.
“The book was designed to create hope and healing no matter what’s happened,” Lindsey Glass said. “We do recover. We can heal. We can stop engaging in destructive or unhealthy behavior. It just takes some understanding, compassion and practice.”
The Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover features an interactive blend of actionable information, compelling storytelling and writing prompts to help bring awareness, understanding, and compassion to mothers and daughters everywhere.
At the book’s core is the four-step process that helped the authors understand each other, ease their conflicts, and rediscover their appreciation and love:
• Revealing Your Back Story
• Exploring Your Emotional and Personality Styles
• Understanding Your Conflicts and Triggers
• Learning the Tools to Restore the Love
Along the way, readers learn empowering insights about the impact of generational trauma; the most common issues mothers and daughters fight about and why; how to nurture forgiveness and healing; and whether family members should reconcile at all and how to do so safely.
“If you take the time to figure out what’s at the root of these things and then find the compassion and the respect to treat this precious person a little bit better knowing what they’re going through, I think the relationship can be so much stronger,” Lindsey Glass added.
