"Welcome to your crisis!" Words one would expect to see on an overview during a seminar with a loud mouth motivational speaker strutting back and forth across the stage, bent on getting you to pay as much for his/her books as you paid to hear the banal blather.

Well, don't expect the same kind of performance with Laura Day. She's the real deal and takes this subject to heart, literally. It all started with a divorce and child custody battle. Day knows what it's like to perform daily routines while submerged in crisis. Her divorce and custody battle eventually took her to a better place in her life and she believes it can be the same for others. With her tools she's ready to teach listeners how to handle their reactions to a crisis, how to rebuild and reinvent themselves. On the audio book, Day explains various responses to a crisis: denial, anxiety, rage or depression. At least one of these descriptions will make you feel like someone's looking through your window or listening at your door. It's truly surreal.

Day reads the audio version. Her voice is peaceful, sometimes hypnotic. Listeners will appreciate how she guides, teaches, and questions them into being better people during and after a crisis. This one's a keeper. Highly Recommended.
