In Pursuit of Radio Mom

In Pursuit of Radio Mom brings the reader tight to Terry Crylen's side as it traces her path from frequent and debilitating anxiety, loneliness, and shame-and a dysfunctional marriage that mirrors the dynamics of her relationship with her mother-to the discovery of her authentic self and the happiness and fulfillment such a transformation brings. Radio Mom also illuminates the ways in which one generation impacts the next both wittingly and unwittingly when later, while pressing along the difficult route of raising her own daughter, the author is challenged to confront, yet again, the legacy of her past. A book that also makes transparent the process of psychotherapy, In Pursuit of Radio Mom's message is this: the excavation of pain clears space within the mind and heart affording the growth of new insight, overturning fear, and making acceptance and forgiveness possible.
