Standing Still And The Art Of Effective Parenting: A Transformation Process

This book is a journey from childhood to adulthood. It tells the extraordinary story of my life and the hard lessons learned over the decades as a young woman growing up in the South, from segregation to integration, from community to isolation, and from home and back.It is filled with the wisdom and wicked humor of my single mom who taught me the unscripted and earned principles of effective communication passed down from generations caregivers who mastered the art of listening, observing, and sensing to help their children to thrive by nurturing a sharpened sense of awareness to better understand the world, ourselves and others.Each chapter tells the story of a moment that transformed my life and shaped my memories. Each section ends with a list of provocative questions titled: Life's Teachable Moments. It is my wish that these exercises will help the reader to answer life's most pressing questions, to stop you from "standing still" and begin moving towards living your fullest life. This book will help you to think and uncover the keys to your life's journey. By reading this book, you will increase your awareness, learn to communicate effectively, challenge your decisions, and create a mindset that is open to growth and change.This is the gift of my mother's teachings and I pass it on to you, the reader.
