Do you want to be the best parent you can be?

We all want to be good parents, but our pasts hold us back. We all feel like we're failing at parenting.

In Grow Up, personal development guru Gary John Bishop shows us how to let go of what came before and start taking action. Gary argues we're never going to measure up to the perfect parent modelβ€”this book will equip you to think about how you show up in the world to nurture your children in the present.

No more tips and tricks, Grow Up will help you take charge of the direction of your life and show your kids how to follow theirs.
