In 2001, the Surgeon General of the U.S. issued a report stating rejection as a greater risk for adolescent violence than drugs, poverty, or gang membership. In Growing Old: One Lucille Ball Moment at a Time, author Heather Westover takes a hard look at her life and recounts the hardships, pain, and spirit that drove her to rise above those feelings of not being good enough. It took her fifty years of hiccups and social tragedy to finally find a way to accept herself.

This book is for you if you or someone you love:

Feels isolated and alone in a group of people
Endured social rejection by friends, classmates, or peers
Experiences unresolved feelings from past trauma

Growing Old: One Lucille Ball Moment at a Time shows us there's hope to be found, laughter to enjoy, and healing for the soul when you do the hard work!
