These "hand-me-down dreams" influence every aspect of our lives, including our work and how we do it.In Hand-Me-Down Dreams, Mary H. Jacobsen's insightful wisdom, culled from her experience as a psychotherapist and career counselor and from her own personal life, illuminates the problems you'll encounter when trying to change this family dynamic. In reading this book and participating in its exercises, you'll be armed with the knowledge you'll need to find the motivation and the courage to fulfill your own dreams and attain success on your terms.
