Discover Dr. Patricia O'Gorman's book, The Resilient Women: Mastering the 7 Steps to Personal Power, and you're bound to be chanting, "I am woman! Hear me roar!" And, you should. Too many times, women sabotage themselves with girly thoughts, convincing themselves that their life's disappointments are a result of being too tall, too pretty, too fat, too skinny, too smart, not smart enough or not sexy enough. Simply put, our girly thoughts can be our greatest hurdle to making positive progress in our lives, both personally and professionally.

Girly thoughts not only stifle women from achieving their full potential, but they slash a woman's sense of value or self-worth because they remind us that we don't fall in line with the latest version of what is culturally desirable and acceptable. Dr. O'Gorman shows us that a resilient life is achieved by how we react to situations in our lives, not by the things that happen to us.

The path to realizing resilience is outlined in a seven step process, designed to guide you to understanding your own personal power. Dr. O'Gorman shows how to recognize when girly thoughts are taking over and redirect them with positive thinking. She further teaches us to grow from our challenges and progress to a place of gratitude and acceptance.

"Reprogram your girly thoughts," explains Dr. O'Gorman. "Once you stop being a victim, embrace your strengths and adopt positive self-talk, you'll be on the path to your own resilience."

Dr. O'Gorman is an internationally renowned psychologist, coach and public speaker. She is recognized for her work with women, trauma, children of alcoholics, and substance abuse. Her warm, humorous persona has made her a favorite inspirational speaker. This is Dr. O'Gorman's second book on women and resilience. Her third book on women and resilience, Out Your Girly Thoughts...Embrace Your Strength will be released April 2014 from HCI Books.
