    About this ebook

    “...laugh-out-loud funny...great practical suggestions...A quirky, earnest guide to regaining self-esteem for the modern woman.” — Kirkus Reviews

    Many women grow up looking for their security and sense of well being outside themselves, typically in a love relationship with a man. Man comes, self esteem comes—you’re walking on sunshine. Man goes, literally or figuratively, self esteem goes—you’re walking where the sun don’t shine. Because a strong sense of self is never internalized, this cycle of searching for and losing the man who can supposedly ground you, is endless.

    But there’s hope. Learn to internalize a strong, healthy sense of self and self love and you will be a calm, confident and much more discerning mate seeker, for a women who truly values herself will find relationships, both platonic and romantic, that value her.

    So, things are crappy. Yay! I mean, yay, because now you’ve found the perfect book. Help is on the way.
