Summary

Helping women recognize and realize their true desiresIn this remarkable new book, a team of highly credentialed psychologists shows women how to overcome unproductive, blameful thoughts and unrealistic expectations-the things they tell themselves about how their marriages, friendships, children, and careers should be. The book encourages women to counteract idealized images by using self talk to sort out where those "should" messages come from, isolate their own voices, and then take steps to meet their unique needs. Dorothy Cantor, PsyD, Carol Goodheart, EdD, Sandra Haber, PhD, Lenore Walker, EdD, Karen Zager, PhD, Ellen McGrath, PhD, and Alice Rubenstein, EdD, are distinguished mental health care professionals. Andrea Thompson is a professional writer.
