It is a call to action for all of America-and the world-to realize how poisonous alcohol is, and just how much it is truly affecting our lives. Whitker's personal story drives a moving narrative from addiction to recovery, but more than that, she creates an alternative path to holistic healing. She believes AA isn't the answer for most, that no one is really an alcoholic, and that the stigma surrounding alcoholism should and can be lifted. She believes in a world, much like the post-cigarette world we live in today, where the majority of people choose a sober life, not because they are addicts, but because they believe in healthier, more fulfilled living. Through her work, she inspires and creates an easy-to-follow path for anyone to join her.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, Quit Like a Woman Start Publishing Notes is wholly responsible for this content and is not associated with the original author in any way.

Perfection shouldn't be the goal. Instead, parents should focus on establishing a secure attachment with their child. This is achieved by ensuring that your child feels safe, seen, soothed, and secure. In other words, focus less on the child's behavior and more on the parent-child relationship. This way, you will be able to turn your home into a secure base from which your child can launch out into the world, knowing full well that they have the support that never wavers.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, The Power of Showing Up.
