Drawing from Bowen family systems theory, Growing Yourself Up takes you on a journey through each stage of life to see the predictable patterns of relationships and to show you how to use this knowledge to make purposeful adjustments in yourself. The result, though certainly not a quick fix, is a sturdier self, sturdier relationships and a refreshing new way of viewing life's challenges and opportunities."

This book is fantastic. It will equip you to make sense of (and have a greater awareness for) how we as human beings relate to one another through times of stress and changing life circumstances. Jenny has also incorporated not a few stories from her professional experience, which makes this book easy to read and deeply relatable. Whether you struggle in your relationships or not, you will appreciate this book for equipping you not only to understand yourself and the relationships around you, but also for counselling friends and family should those times arise—it is a book you will find yourself reading and rereading to these ends.
