About Situations 101
"Situations 101" 'Peels Back The Real' When Dealing With Relationship Issues.

The book, filled with wowing dilemmas and engrossing quandaries, gives a bird's-eye view of what so many people are dealing with in relationships, including the good, the bad and the ugly. By the reads end, you'll have found a way to a healthier relationship. Situations 101 is a fast, sometimes comical read. Yet, it is not always easily digested as Stanis 'tells it like it is' in this 'ole school-ish', no nonsense stylized book. The scenarios and 'personalized feedback' breaks dramas down to allow a microscopic self-reflection of how we perpetually contribute to unhealthy, hazardous relationship situations. Stanis challenges women and men to get real when considering their respective roles in relationships, including the initial pursuit of one.
