The Art of Being A Woman Alone



Hello,
Looking for a good read? Here is another book I recommend. It is called "On My Own" The Art of Being A Woman Alone by Florence Falk.

Recently, a fellow widow found my coaching website (http://www.coachingforwidows/) and requested to meet for lunch. We met, found we had much in common and had a most insightful and fun meeting. Again, there is so much support and encouragement when we reach out to those who also "get it" and have walked in our shoes.
She was reading this book, On My Own and highly recommended it. I quickly purchased it and am in process of "the read" which so far is amazing. Here is some information on the book.

To be fully free, every women must learn to be by herself. At some point over the course of the average American woman's life, she will find herself alone, whether she is divorced, widowed, single, or in a loveless, isolating relationship. And when that time comes, it is likely that she will be at a loss as to how to handle it. As a society, we have an unspoken but omnipresent belief that a women alone is an outcast, inherently flawed in some way. In this invigorating, supportive book, psychotherapist Flroence Falk aims to take the fear, doubt, confusion, and helplessness out of being a woman alone. Falk invites all women to find their own paths toward an authentic self hood, to discover the pleasures and riches of solitude, and to reconnect with others through a new found sense of self-confidence.
Hope you enjoy the book.

Warmly,
Colleen
