Here's What The Experts Are Saying About The P.R.I.D.E. Factor This book has helped me make great strides in the problem I have had with my need for perfection. I was always accommodating to the needs of others and, as a result, I suffered undue stress, shame and anxiety whenever I disappointed anyone. Reading the cases in the book, and learning the principles of the P.R.I.D.E. Factor, released me from the curse of always feeling bad about myself whenever I followed my own ideas. It gave me the emotional independence I needed to be my True Self. My "step is lighter" and I am not so hard on myself. People close to me can see the difference. Christian Phoenix Special Education Teacher The P.R.I.D.E. Factor offers the reader a chance to become free of the bondage associated with pain hurt and suffering. I have seen, first hand, in my work as a priest, counselor and law enforcement chaplain that the principles of this book work. I have been deep in the pit of Ground Zero. I have been steeped in the fear and terror of Emergency Rooms. I have often been called to people's homes to intervene in a crisis such as trying to prevent a potential suicide, helping a family bear some unbearable grief, or trying to move them through some other emotional pain from which they could picture no light at the end of their dark tunnel. The tools I learned in this book gave me new ways of healing to add to my armamentarium, especially in dealing with people's shame and guilt. One of the most vivid examples emblazoned in my memory is having been able to release a firefighter from his guilt and shame in his final hours as he was pinned under debris. The principles in this book can truly be life giving; as a life, no matter how long it is, lived buried in shame and guilt, is no life at all. Father Joe Moreno World Trade Center/Ground Zero Chaplain I want to say what an achievement I think this book is. It is a captivating blend of contemporary psychoanalytic thought and issues about resilience that concern us all today. It is rich with stories and examples of adults who have "bounced back" despite the odds, and guidance for parents on how to raise children who are prepared to do so in their own lives. I think that all parents would find the book inspirational. The book is also presented in a clear, engaging and up-beat tone. Although it is rich with sound information, it is presented in language that is easily understandable and accessible to the layperson. I, myself, have had formal training in these concepts and have treated both adults and children who faced the challenge of "bouncing back." Having words that lay people can also understand and work with is a real contribution. But mostly what I loved about the book is that it made me happy! Margot Garfield LICSW ( Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker ), M. Ed, Advanced Candidate in Psychoanalysis As a Superior of a religious community, I found that the focus on resilience and the capacity to "bounce back" are essential both for the psychological health of the individual and also for the well being of a community. The principles presented in this book have helped me manage many difficult human situations with increased confidence. Fr. Patrick Lynch S.J. Rector of Canisius College Jesuit Community
