Meet bestselling author Dr. Harriet Lerner, touring with her new book: Why Won’t You Apologize?

Thursday, February 16, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

FREE

Meet Harriet Lerner and learn about the apology from her latest book “Why Won’t You Apologize?” (Touchstone, 2017). This timely book shows us how much the apology matters and why we so often muck it up. “I’m sorry” are the two most powerful words in the English language. When these words are part of a wholehearted apology, they are the greatest gift that we can give to the hurt party, to the relationship, and to ourselves. Yet the complicated dance between the offender and the offended often goes badly. Whether the issue is as trivial as shopping for bananas or as serious as betraying a friend or family member, Lerner provides a unique perspective on what the good apology requires and how we can restore compromised and broken relationships. This book has a particularly relevant chapter about learning how to live without the apology that you deserve.

More about the author: Harriet Lerner, PhD, is one of America’s most respected relationship experts, and the author of numerous scholarly articles and popular books, including the New York Times bestseller The Dance of Anger, which has sold several million copies.
