Picture yourself as a child on a road trip with your family. In your family car, were you the funny one, the smart one, the troublemaker, the peacemaker? In What Drives You?, author Ellen Yashinsky Chute explores how our families shape our roles and our relationships. Learn how your brain developed, how your family dynamics determined your worldview, and how the identity you formed in your family drives you as an adult. This workbook will illuminate how families work while leading you on an eye-opening journey designed to help you understand, accept, and appreciate the unique person you have become. Chute shows that while our childhood identities still drive us as adults, we can learn to turn the wheel in a new direction.
Thoughtful, Compassionate and Metaphorically Sound
Rich in analysis and storytelling, the author helps the reader analyze their family dynamics and offers support for self awareness. I was able to find connections in my past for current behaviors and hope to continue my journey of self-discovery. Highly recommended!
