This book uses words that are common to everyone and puts them into a refreshing perspective to show how we confuse our emotions with our finances. The book digs deep and raises eyebrows; some of the observations are startling. The book comes from one woman's journey of healing from almost financial ruin to peace and stability. The author's comment: "If I can do it without a Masters degree, so can you. It takes compassion, hard work and courage." Using in part client stories to illustrate a point, the book also provides tools that can be used immediately.
