About Unpacked & Detangled

From the publisher's feed

There’s no guide for how to make it through life. Many of us thought that going to college and following the career checklist would put our lives on that straight path. But no one really gave us the guide to many of the obstacles we face as adults? For example, what to do when we have difficulties in our friendships, relationships, and jobs. We were never told that growing hurts. Therapists, Dr. Ronald Love and Dr. Deonna Kitwana unpack and detangle some of life's struggles and provides tips and support on how to navigate life.
