Since she was a little girl, she has kept a diary of her grandmpther’s wise sayings. When she worked as a social worker in an addiction center, she often had patients who were detoxing and unable to focus on concepts that taught effective life skills. She decided to use many of her grandmother’s sayings as teaching tools.The patients responded well and began to easily quote her grandmother because the sayings were so simple and easy to understand. The patients encouraged Dr. Lazarus to write this book because they believed that it would be helpful to everyone, not just those in recovery.
Dr. Lazarus conducts workshops and interactive seminars that help individuals to unleash the power that lives within them. Through the use of humor, storytelling, and her grandmother’s sayings she provides simple mechanisms that enhance personal growth and promote meaningful relationships. Dr. Grandma, as her grandchildren call her, lives in Florida with her husband of 44 years.view less
