Overview

Vicki Paris Goodman's enlightening memoir is a must-read for those who strive for perfection but sometimes find themselves tripping over hurdles of their own making. Whether you're a driven professional, someone juggling countless responsibilities, or a type B hard-pressed to decipher the motivations of a type A in your life, Speed Bumps will resonate with your own reality. Goodman's tell-all unmasks the little-known trials of life as viewed through the lens of a type A personality.
