“I have never seen a book quite like this. Reading the perspectives of both mother and daughter was a unique experience. When we are ‘in it,’ it is hard to see past our pain. Leslie and Lindsey widened the lens on mother-daughter relationships so we could see not only the complexity of the problems, but also the journey to repair them. This makeover is a great book on making up with excellent exercises and thought-provoking writing prompts. For best results, I recommend both mother and daughter read it simultaneously and see what happens!”

With journal prompts, new information about how the brain works and how you interact negatively and why, plus their own moving and honest stories. Both mothers and daughters are certain to find relief and validation from reading and sharing the book's valuable insights.
