Fix Your Fairytale: A Woman’s Guide to a Great Life, Love, and Legacy
$24.99
As women, many of us are taught that if we do all the right things, a husband and children will come along in time. However, it’s becoming more and more common that young women are educated, successful—and single. And, as femininity is often linked with being a wife and mother in media and culture, this can make us feel like failures as women.
In Fix Your Fairytale: A Woman’s Guide to a Great Life, Love, and Legacy, psychiatrist Ericka Goodwin shares a blueprint of how to find fulfillment in your life even when things don’t seem to be going the way you planned. With advice on topics ranging from finding a tribe to setting boundaries to seeking help when you need it, Dr. Ericka shows how, with positive energy and action, it is possible to thrive no matter where you end up in life.
