Put On Your Big-Girl Shoes: Stepping into Courage, Resilience, and Gratitude

In today’s divisive cultural discourse, women are too often viewed in terms of polarities: they’re either motherly or businesslike; compassionate or demanding; feminine or invisible; weak or overbearing. But women can embrace these complex dualities, gaining access to untold strengths that can change the world. Clinical health psychologist, author and nationally recognized speaker Dr. Lori Stevic-Rust shows today’s women what having it all really means, revealing that when women step into their big-girl shoes-reckoning with their contradictions and fears-they can tap into their awesome power. Through powerful personal interviews with women like MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, Cleveland news anchor Stefani Schaefer, and Holocaust survivor Rena finder, Stevic-Rust reveals how you too can push through life’s hurdles to embrace the best kind of success: a purposeful life. In addition, stories from a heart transplant recipient, homeless mother, educator and former nun are conduits to addressing vital current topics such as race, guilt and our moral responsibilities.
