The Fierce Beauty Club

by Elizabeth Herron

Strong women making smart choices. "…a strong and beautiful book for men and women about living life bravely and pleasurably instead of skirting it." --Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul Combining a skillful use of anecdote with psychological and cultural insights, Elizabeth Herron provides women with a revolutionary 9-step program for unleashing personal power, discovering community, and celebrating body and soul. Rooted in the stories of eight real women (self-described "Fierce Beauties") who began to hold regular support meetings in 1990, this is a book for every woman interested in confronting the big and small issues associated with being a woman in today's world. "Finally, an exploration of women's power that is not anti-male and that includes spirit and shadow too! This is a must for all generations of women who wish to marry their power to their femininity."--Connie Zweig, co-author of Romancing the Shadow. "...well-written, fresh, and inspiring…"--Jennifer Louden, author of The Women's Comfort Book.

Okay. It's about a women's support group. I have very supportive friends with whom I can talk about anything with so I'm not finding anything new.
