A bad breakup. A serious illness. The loss of a job. Life has a habit of throwing people curveballs. To which our guest,, Karen Salmansohn, says: "When life throws you curveballs, hit them out of the park," and tells readers just how in her latest book, The Bounce Back Book - which has a symbolic red rubber cover on the outside, and inside tips on how to thrive in the face of adversity, setbacks, losses, divorce, bankruptcy, assaults, illness, miscarriage, death, layoffs, slander - you name it.

In The Bounce Back Book, Karen , whose quirky self-help books—including How to Make Your Man Behave . . . Ballsy, 99 Ways to grow a Bigger Pair... and How to Be Happy, Dammit—mixes from-the-gut wisdom, humor, feistiness, and sophistication to create a hip, inspiring resource that will brighten the darkest mood. The book is grounded in happiness research, psychological studies, Greek philosophy, and Karen's unique sense of humor.
