Seven Ways Women Can Build Resilience And Self Esteem Offered By Bestselling Author Barbara Becker Holstein

In the tradition of authors like Judy Blume, Dr. Holstein pushes the envelope in covering the challenges girls really face, without sugar coating it or downplaying the feelings or passions young girls experience, regarding things that are important to them at this stage of their development.

Building resilience and self-esteem is absolutely crucial for girls, and for women of all ages, as it empowers them to navigate challenges and setbacks with confidence, fostering mental and emotional well-being. High self-esteem enables women to advocate for themselves and their rights, breaking down barriers and stereotypes. Resilience helps women to bounce back from adversity, making them more adaptable and better equipped to pursue their goals and aspirations.

In a recent article on her site, bestselling author Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein offered 7 ways girls and women can develop these all-important traits. In that article, she said in part:

Intuition. We all are intuitive at times. Research suggests that our brain has picked up on a lot more information outside of ourselves than we realize. So if your gut feels uncomfortable at times, you may want to further check what the circumstances are that you are dealing with. Of course only you know when something is exactly right for you, so it is questionable decisions that I am suggesting you listen to your own feelings when necessary. After all, who is your best friend? You are.

Staying alert. Recognizing your talents and potential even if you are the only one doing so. Never give up on your own talents and potential. Take time every once and awhile to sit down with yourself and think about all the talents you have even if they are not developed and your untapped potential. You may be amazed at all you can still do even if some doors are closed. For example you may not be able to ski anymore, but you can still enjoy watching the sport or maybe giving pointers to children about skiing.

Overcoming fears. We all get scared about new things to do or changing our behaviors in any way. Welcome to being human. Best to try to be less afraid so you don’t spoil chances for yourself. There are endless suggestions on the web as how to be more courageous and of course there are many mental health professionals who can help you feel stronger about yourself and your decisions.

Take advantage of help, as in reality you are unique. Just think about this: Kleenex may never have been invented if the inventor wasn’t willing to get a patent on it. After all, hankerchiefs had been good enough for hundreds or thousands of years. I sure glad someone had the courage to patent Kleenex.

Being generous and sharing. We all have had something happen when we were in the dumps that made us feel better. Let’s never forget to pass on goodness and kindness to others. It is so easy to do so. Most people admit that once they do a good deed even when in a bad mood they feel better. So join the crowd.

Believing in what you have to offer the world. This is a tough concept. Usually us women put ourselves down and see ourselves not in the best light. Believing in ourselves means we understand that all of us struggle to meet and handle the issues that come up in our lives. Men often hold in to themselves more of their difficulties than women do. We often have friends or family members where we will share our problems. But the truth is we bring just as much to the table of success as men do. In the end of all difficulties, some are solved and some remain failures of a sort, no matter who we are. We can only offer to do the best we can. So practice seeing yourself in a positive light. it will bring you pleasure and a more honest positive look at your offerings to the world.

Realize there is enough success to to go around for all. My dad always said that there is enough success to go around. I believe he was right. Every time one person opens the door to success then there are more doors that need to be opened to make another dream come true. So don’t lose out on your chance for your dreams to come true.

In 2015 my first selfie film, A Short Film, was selected to be shown at the Garden State Film Festival. It won an award for the best song, written by Critelli and sung by Lindsay Lucas. That was the start of an amazing part of my life. I have added Filmmaker to my resume. It took another few years and more selfie films to have the joy of experiencing almost all of my films being accepted wherever I sent them and many of them to win awards of one sort or another.

As the calendar enters the year 2025, I can account for more than 200 times that a film of mine was accepted somewhere and/or won recognition beyond being accepted. It took another few years and more selfie films, documentaries, fantasy films and Zoom films to have the joy of experiencing almost all of my films being accepted wherever I sent them and many of them to win awards of one sort or another.

What does my success have to do with your success?

How Women's Roles Have Changed Since The 1960's: Women's Fashion Through The Decades By Positive Psychologist Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein

Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein is a bestselling author and visionary psychologist and film maker. In the tradition of authors like Judy Blume, Dr. Holstein pushes the envelope in covering the challenges women of all ages really face.

Women's roles have undergone a profound change since the 1960's. Women have made dramatic strides in the workplace, our culture, in education and in the political arena. Many barriers have fallen, while many have stayed in place or morphed into something we don't recognize. By examining the shifts in employment, education, and social norms, we can better understand the progress made and the road still ahead.

Bestselling author and visionary Positive Psychologist Barbara Becker Holstein has spent her entire career helping women of all ages build resilience and self-esteem. In an article on her site, titled, "Women’s Fashion Through the Decades: Then vs. Now," she addressed some of those changes. In that article she wrote in part:

In the 1960s, women's clothing was often characterized by dresses, skirts, and high heels. The ideal female body image was the hourglass figure, and women's clothing often accentuated this shape. However, as women began to gain more freedom and independence, their attitudes about dressing started to change.

Today, the emphasis is on comfort and personal expression, and women are no longer confined to wearing traditionally feminine clothing. Many women choose to wear pants, sneakers, and other casual clothing, and there is a growing movement towards gender-neutral fashion.

And as we see today, most women do not try to conform to a single idealized body image. This has led to a wider range of fashion options for women, including plus-size clothing and clothing designed for women with different body shapes.

When I was a little girl, the major source of my clothing was via my cousin. If she grew that season then I would come to visit and see folded nicely on a chair the latest new clothes for me. Of course they were technically hand me downs but my aunt took such good care of my cousin's things that they were as close to new as possible. without a stain on them, even though worn by a little girl, starched when they had to be, and folded carefully.

I loved those hand me downs. One reason was that I thought my cousin, who was two years old than I, was beautiful, much prettier than I. She had straight almost black hair that shone in the right light and I had medium brown hair that wanted to be messy and curly but was only messy. I had had my tonsils out when I was two and my mom said the ether had taken away my beautiful soft curls and left me with basically a mess of hair, never quite right.

Let me mention at this point in my essay on clothing that already I'm talking about a different world than you and I live in now. For one thing, washing clothes was in and of itself difficult. When we lived in an apartment my mother had a washing machine. Oh no, it was nothing like you know now. It was a container into which water was taken from the sink in a hose hookup, as hot as possible and then one stirred that mess of laundry round and round until you were exhausted. Then you emptied the water and did more rounds of turning and turning the water that was now cold, as you had to rinse the clothes still full of soap. Finally in exhaustion you emptied the tub and now began the adventure of hanging out the wash.

Every apartment had access to a rope line. Some lines were hanging from one tree to another. Others were hanging from fire escapes, so you had to take your clothes pins and yourself and your wet laundry in a basket and stand on a metal fire escape where you wouldn' want to look down, as it was designed to run down stairs in a fire, made out of iron, and you could look down through all the openings.

That's the way it was when I was little, at our apartment. My aunt had a house and more money than us and so she had to stand in her back yard with a rope that went around tree trunks.

As a school psychologist and in her private practice, Dr. Holstein has worked with many children and parents, assisting them in developing skills in decision-making, self-awareness, and courage, as well as improving inter-generational communication.

One of those tools, a workbook for girls titled, 'Looking Good, Feeling Good', achieved bestseller status, an honor that many of her other books have achieved. The ebook hit the top of the Teen and Young Adult Self Esteem eBooks.

Dr. Holstein hopes to bring parents, teachers, librarians, grandparents and media together to accomplish one goal: Change in the lives of young people who suffer from anxiety and a growing sense of hopelessness and despair.

Donna Fletcher Crow's Fascination With Scottish History Is A Decades Long Journey That Inspires Award-Winning Novels And Captivates The Hearts And Minds Of Americans

 Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

Scottish history holds great significance for many of us here in the United States, as it weaves a rich tapestry that has shaped the cultural and historical fabric of both Scotland and the US. From the mystical isle of Iona, a focal point of Gaelic monasticism for three centuries, to the resilient town of Selkirk, which helped give birth to the legend of William Wallace, Scotland's history resonates across the Atlantic. The majestic Edinburgh Castle, standing proudly atop the ancient volcanic rock, symbolizes centuries of Scottish sovereignty and resistance against oppression. The pivotal Battle of Bannockburn, fought in 1314, serves as a reminder of the indomitable spirit and quest for freedom that continue to inspire people in both countries. The allure of Scottish heritage, with its traditions, music, and clan connections, captivates the hearts of many Americans.

It is this heritage that has helped inspire many of the novels written by bestselling, multi-award winning author Donna Fletcher Crow. She addressed this subject in a blog post titled 'Scotland On My Mind, the Influence of Heritage,' on the occasion of her 60th wedding anniversary. She and her husband will be celebrating the event with a family reunion in Scotland.

"Thanks to family history research handed down to me from my great uncle Donald Fletcher," Crow stated, "our family has always enjoyed claiming descent from Fletcher the Warrior, sole survivor among the men of Selkirk of the Battle of Flodden Field in 1513. This bit of historical identity has been a focus of family fun that included Highland dancing, bagpipe playing, and kilt wearing for various members--as well as a source for story and setting for many of my novels.

"It was, therefore, natural that my husband, whose Johnston ancestors came to the New World from Scotland before the Revolutionary War, should choose a Scottish Castle as the venue for the family (all 26 of us) to gather in to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary. Just as it was natural for me to use our Scottish heritage in my family saga trilogy The Daughters of Courage based on a fictionalized account of my own pioneer roots. I later went on to recount stories of Celtic saints in my Monastery Murders series, especially in Book 1, A Very Private Grave where saints Mungo and Ninian play a part in the story. Likewise, in Book 5 Against All Fierce Hostility where Scotland's patron Saint Andrew makes an appearance.

"In my most recent project The Celtic Cross Series, Scotland's history covers 4 volumes through Saint Columba, Kenneth Mac Alpin, Queen Margaret, William Wallace, and Robert the Bruce--all magnificent heroes and heroines whose lives serve as such excellent role models for their country, for the world, and for our family."

The full Scottish heritage article can be found at https://donnafletchercrow.com/p/498/Scotland-on-My-Mind-the-Influence-of-Heritage.

Crow picked up several new awards for a number of books in the Celtic Cross Series. She received the Book Excellence Award, billed as "A Global Celebration of Literary Excellence", for 'The Dawning of Peace, Of Dreamers and Designers,' Book 10 The Celtic Cross Series.

1914: Budding actress Nora Armstrong is set to star at the Abbey Theatre in Dublin--until everything is changed by the Easter Rising. 1996: Can Mary fight her way from the wreckage of a hotel bombing to find real hope for the future—hers and Ireland’s?

She also received the First Place, Media Network Idaho, Adult Novel, and National Federation of Press Women, Adult Novel, Second Place for 'The Shaping of the Union, Of Plots and Parliaments,' Book 8, The Celtic Cross Series

Valiant Women Risk All for Ireland: In 1789 Lenny imperils her life to uncover the insidious spy bent on bringing all their plans for a revived Ireland to ruin, even as she harbors a secret message. In 1996 Mary jeopardizes her own happiness as she seeks an answer that will finally help bring peace in the historic struggles of this land.

Donna Fletcher Crow is the author of 50 books, mostly novels of British history. She has taken a number of high-level industry awards for her work.

'The Fields of Bannockburn', the epic from which The Celtic Cross Series, Part I: Scotland, The Struggle for a Nation is based, was listed as Fiction Bestseller by Christian Book Distributors and 'The Banks of the Boyne', the epic from which The Celtic Cross Series, Part II: Ireland, The Pursuit of Peace is based, hit #3 Best-Selling Fiction.

The 10-volume Celtic Cross series covers the history of Scotland and Ireland. The leading historic figures of the day interact with fictional characters to bring the stirring events alive. Each epoch is tied to the series with the on-going events in the lives of modern young people as old wars and current conflicts keep them striving to find answers that provide hope for the future. The series is comprised of 10 novels. ‘The Keeper of the Stone,’ book 1 in the series was #1 on Amazon for Historical Scottish fiction.

The Daughters of Courage, 'Kathryn', 'Elizabeth' and 'Stephanie' is a pioneer family saga based on the stories of Crow's own family and other Idaho pioneers in the Kuna, Nampa and Boise area.

'Glastonbury' is her best-known book, which received the prestigious First Place, Historical Novel, award from the National Federation of Press Women. Readers and reviewers have raved about 'Glastonbury', calling it "The best of its kind," "richly fascinating," "beautifully researched," "gloriously evocative," and "panoramic." One Amazon reader said, "WHAT a work! Every reader can be enveloped in the sheer scope and quality, every historian be constantly nodding at the precise detail and accuracy, and every Christian can rejoice in the fullness of scripture. For me it is simply beyond descriptive praise. I would urge all who value truth to treat themselves to a feast."

Bestselling Author Donna Fletcher Crow And Podcaster Adam Graham Unveil The Gems of Classic British Mysteries In New Interview

Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

Bestselling author Donna Fletcher Crow recently interviewed podcaster Adam Graham and has posted the interview on her website. Graham's popular podcast offers a "mystery-solving line-up of radio detectives" that includes Some 6,000 separate episodes spanning the gamut of American and British mystery literature.

After a deep delve into old time favorites Superman and Dragnet Graham turned to including the treasures of Classic British Mysteries. His stellar offerings include vintage Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown, Hercule Poirot, and the Scarlet Pimpernel. Adam Graham’s Old Time Detectives of British Mysteries have starred such greats of stage and screen as Basil Rathbone, Orson Wells, Sir John Gielgud, Sir Ralph Richardson, Vincent Price, and Angela Lansbury.

In her article, Crow wrote, "The inimitable Adam Graham has been one of my most-admired friends for many years—and not just because he always wears a kilt! I had even listened to some of Adam’s podcasts of 'The Great Detectives of Old Time Radio,' but I had no idea he has done so much. Adam Graham’s podcasts offer a treasure trove of listening.

"I asked Adam to tell us how he got into the fascinating, cutting-edge world of podcasting and to send along some links that would appeal to my readers—especially those who are fans of classic British mysteries. In addition to a wealth of mystery listening, Adam also included links to programs of classic literature he has done such as ‘Pride and Prejudice,’ ‘Mansfield Park,’ and ‘Of Human Bondage.’

“An especially gripping series on offer is ‘Adam Graham Presents the War.’ A series of old-time radio shows, now available via podcasts which offer a narrative of America in World War II from the pre-War isolationism to a few episodes that looked at the aftermath.

“My particular favorite is an American in England in which the American host conducts a series of interviews showing the effect of the War on Cromer, a small seaside town on the east coast of England. I found these stories of the day-to-day lives of common people standing against brutal attacks to be heart-rending.”

Crow, who writes 3 mystery series in the style of classic British detective fiction has posted the interview on her blog, “The Authorized Version,” at https://donnafletchercrow.com/p/496/Classic-British-Mysteries-with-Adam-Graham-Podcaster-Extraordinaire-

Kishanda Fulford Talks About Her New Book, The Spite Of Fortune, With Bestselling Author Donna Fletcher Crow

Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

Kishanda Fulford's new book, ‘The Spite Of Fortune’, has been released to rave reviews. In ‘The Spite Of Fortune’ readers will discover the captivating world of Louisa Carolina Colleton, whose life far out-strips the adventures of the heroine of any Gothic novel. Bestselling author Donna Fletcher Crow sat down with Fulford to delve deeper into the research and inspiration behind this compelling biography, and shared her fascinating insights in an exclusive interview. You won't want to miss out on the secrets uncovered in this interview, which you can find on Crow's blog at https://donnafletchercrow.com/articles.php. Be sure to read Crow's review of 'The Spite Of Fortune' in the same article.

Crow said about her interview: “Kishanda Fulford first mentioned her project of writing about her husband’s ancestress in an interview she gave me in 2021 (which is also on my website). She said that it would be coming out “next year” and I responded that I looked forward to reading the book and interviewing her again when that happened.

“As a passionate Jane Austen scholar, I am interested in all aspects of life in the 18th century. I was certain that the life of this previously unknown real-life heroine would add important insights into the life of a woman of that time. Not only is Kishanda’s subject her husband’s forebearer, but also Kishanda is a former journalist and a Janeite herself—no one could be better placed to undertake this project.

“The vicissitudes of the publishing world being what they are, it’s not surprising that the completed project took considerably longer, but it was well worth waiting for. And, once again, Kishanda was gracious and generous in her interview. Knowing what a busy lady she is as a mother of 4, wife of controversial media figure Francis Fulford, and chatelaine of Great Fulford, one of the principal country manors of England, I only requested her press kit when I finally heard of the book’s release.

“In her usual magnanimous way, Kishanda replied that she didn’t have a prepared press kit, but would be happy to answer my questions. I was delighted to learn of the depth, challenges, and vicissitudes of Kishanda’s meticulous research process which took her, like her subject, back and forth across the Atlantic ocean several times and involved a close-up encounter with an alligator, among other adventures.

“I am also honoured that Kishanda allowed me to publish a little-known portrait of her heroine that came to light only after her book was published. And I was delighted at Kishanda’s response to my query as to whether she felt she shared characteristics with her stalwart subject, as I strongly suspect she does.”

Bestselling Author Donna Fletcher Crow Reveals How Nearly Extinct Music Of Ireland Was Saved

Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

The harp has a long and rich history in Irish music and culture, dating back to ancient times. It has played an important role in traditional Irish music as a solo instrument and as part of ensembles. But by the 18th century it was in danger of being lost forever. Award-winning author Donna Fletcher Crow’s recent article in “The Authorized Version” uncovers how the vigorous efforts of a group of dedicated Belfast leaders, working from political and cultural motives, saved Irish music from extinction.

The month of March brings with it the celebration of all things Irish: Saint Patrick, soda bread, green landscapes, and Celtic music—all of them of venerable origin and still enjoyed. But for one event, though, we would have little or no traditional Irish music to enliven our celebrations today. Crow’s article explains how the Belfast Harp Festival of 1792 and the subsequent life-long efforts of one man gave us the rich Gaelic music we so enjoy today.

The Gaelic harp is nearly as ancient as Ireland itself. It is found on manuscripts and stone crosses dating back to the 8th century. The harp was a high-status instrument in Gaelic society. Chieftains always had a bard and a harper in their entourage. Harpers were so important to Gaelic life that their nails, which were used to pluck the wire strings of their instruments, were protected under early medieval Brehon law.

The harp has been the heraldic symbol of Ireland since medieval times. Based on the 14-15th century “Brian Boru” harp in Trinity College Dublin, the emblem appears today on Irish coins, ale labels, and passports. In earliest days every Irish chieftain had a bard and a harper as part of his entourage.

By the end of the 17th century, however, its music had all but disappeared. The Gaelic leaders had been defeated and Irish society transformed. The few remaining harpers had to rely on wealthy patrons for survival, and their art was rapidly dying out. It is little surprise, then, that when the civic leaders of Belfast sought a means of reviving Gaelic culture in 1792, they turned to the harp.The Belfast Harp Festival was planned as a major event in promoting the Gaelic Revival through restoring interest in the Irish harp which had played so large a part in traditional Irish culture. Festival organizers sought to demonstrate how intimately “The Spirit and Character of a people are connected with their National Poetry and Music,” as they declared on a handbill advertising the event.
Crow said: “I have always loved Irish music and love celebrating my own Irish heritage. It’s really unthinkable that today Gaelic harps might be nothing more than interesting museum pieces
with no authentic music to bring them alive.

“That’s why I was so happy to be able to include the story of the Harp Festival in my novel ‘The Shaping of the Union’ and to share its history in various articles. Thanks to the ‘Harp Ball,’ as the festival was called in 1792, and the numerous harp societies it has inspired through the centuries, down to today’s vigorous Historical Harp Society of Ireland, we all have this wonderful music to enjoy—not just for St. Patrick’s Day, but all year round.”

The full text of Crow’s meticulously researched and thoroughly illustrated article is available at her website at https://donnafletchercrow.com/p/489/The-Music-of-Ireland-That-Almost-Didnt-Survive.

In addition, the January/February issue of Jane Austen's Regency World Magazine Published Crow’s well-researched, deep dive into at the music of Ireland. In that article, titled "Belfast Harp Festival", she contrasted the role of the harp in Irish society and in the genteel world of Regency England.

The Belfast Harp Festival also plays a pivotal role in her book, 'The Shaping of the Union', Epoch 8 in The Celtic Cross Series. The Celtic Cross Series is a sweeping saga of the history of Scotland and Ireland. Mary and Gareth, young people trying to understand their modern world, delve into the past to find meaning for today.

1996, As conflict rages around her, American Mary Hamilton despairs of ever bringing about peace for the young people of Belfast. It was definitely the last straw when the reconciliation center where she and her fiancé Gareth are working was burglarized and Gareth injured. So, if they are leaving, why does Mary still feel so drawn to read their host’s family journal recounting the historic struggles of this land?

1789, Young Lenny Price and her brother join forces with the vibrant McCracken family—an alliance that takes them to the historic Belfast Harp Festival, but more dangerously, involves them with the Peep o’ Day Boys, and then the revolutionary plans of the charismatic Wolfe Tone. Can Lenny uncover the insidious spy bent on bringing all their plans to ruin, even as she harbors a secret message?

Bestselling Author Donna Fletcher Crow Finds Parallels Between Inspiring Spirit Of Idaho Women Statue Unveiled at Idaho Capitol And Her 'Daughters Of Courage' Trilogy

Crow writes meticulously researched, entertaining novels of romance, history, adventure and mystery in an engaging you-are-there style that allows readers to live the history. Reviewers have compared her work with PD James, Dan Brown and Barbara Pym.

The state of Idaho recently unveiled the Spirit Of Idaho Women statue on the Idaho state capitol lawn. People love monuments for a variety of reasons. Some may find them to be symbols of cultural or historical significance and feel a connection to them as a result. Others may appreciate the artistic or architectural beauty of a monument, while others may find monuments to be important markers of a specific event or person and feel that they help to preserve memories or stories. Preserving those stories is key for bestselling author Donna Fletcher Crow and nowhere is that more clearly demonstrated in her 'Daughters Of Courage Trilogy'.

The series, a sweeping family saga, will help today's women find inspiration to triumph in the challenges we all face. For the 'Daughters of Courage' series, an Idaho pioneer family saga, Crow turned to stories of her own family. To celebrate the spirit of these pioneer women, Crow visited the new monument and published a number of photographs in a recent blog post. In that post she stated:

"The statue honors forward thinking women who follow in the footprints of the stalwart women who survived—and even thrived—through times of hardship and turmoil. As desert pioneers, through the great depression, in wartime, and in times of political turmoil Idaho women built homes, nurtured their families, supported churches, and even shaped careers.

"The unveiling of the statue celebrated women’s suffrage. Idaho women were granted the right to vote almost a quarter of a century before the 19th amendment extended the right to all women in the U.S. Strong women advocating votes for women led Idaho’s Legislature to pass an amendment to Idaho’s constitution allowing women the right in 1891.

"But the fight was not won. Although the amendment passed nearly 2-1, the state board of canvassers did not ratify the result. Again, women leaders stepped forward, leading the charge to bring the case before the Idaho Supreme Court. The women prevailed. Idaho women were granted the right to vote in 1896, fourth state in the nation to do so, according to an article in the "Idaho Press" on Dec 13, 2022.

"At the unveiling, Idaho’s First Lady Teresa Little said that the sculpture commemorates Idaho women’s suffrage and recognizes the contributions of women past, present and future. Kathryn, Elizabeth and Stephanie, heroines of the 'Daughters of Courage' family saga, depict just such women."

The full text of the piece is available at https://donnafletchercrow.com/p/485/Inspiring-Statue-Unveiled-at-Idaho-Capitol-Celebrates-Courageous-Women.

Crow said, “It is my hope that this statue and the true stories in my books will help all people, both women and men, to draw strength and understanding from the past, courage to work to improve our world today, and inspiration for a bright future.”

Bestselling Author Dr. Sylvia Lafair Announces New Second Edition Of Five Star Leadership Book, Gutsy - How Women Leaders Make Change, Ebook Available At No Charge September 14 through 17, 2022

Sylvia Lafair, Ph.D., is the founder of Creative Energy Options (CEOinc), a global business consulting firm and the world’s leading authority in Pattern Breakthrough Leadership Development, a Top Global Leadership Guru, and a best-selling author.

The role of women in the workplace has been transformed, reformed and redefined, turning 180 degrees from the stereotypical gender mix of the 1950's. Today, women have achieved real power, both personal and professional.

The percentage of female business owners and entrepreneurs has skyrocketed in the last few decades. More and more boardrooms are now the domain of empowered women who have overcome, stepped up and stepped out. The playing field has been leveled at last.

However, there are still many obstacles to overcome. While we might believe those obstacles stem from outdated ideas about women, extinct holdover philosophies from the male dominated good ol' boys networks of bygone eras, or just plain prejudice, in fact it is often in the mindset of women themselves in which many of these obstacles can make their appearance.

A lack of confidence or self-assuredness, buried deep in the subconscious, manifests a tiny voice so quiet it is barely heard, whispering, "Not ready." "Not good enough." "Not worthy." "Imposter."

While we cannot control the obstacles society lays before us, we can control that internal voice - indeed we must if we are to achieve real success. To do that, we need only to become "Gutsy". And it is good to be gutsy.

That is the primary message of the second edition of Dr. Sylvia LaFair's outstanding leadership book, Gutsy, How Women Leaders Make Change. The ebook version will be available at no charge at Amazon September 14 through September 17, 2022.

For some of us this is easy, to speak out, take risks, stand at the leading edge of change. For most of us, we need a nudge. This is a great book to get women started on the path to being GUTSY!

You'll learn to Observe and Understand behaviors that have stood in the way of true collaboration, and Transform into the world of outstanding partnership. From exploring models of being GUTSY, to what it means to have a pink or blue blanket, this entertaining book will give you the puzzle pieces to build a GUTSY You!

The supercharged second edition of the book has received rave reviews from readers and reviewers:

“This book hits the spot for every woman leader, personally and professionally. I turn to it when I need to rethink, reclaim, and reinvent my priorities at work and at home. It helps me constantly claim my passion and move forward.” —Joanne LaMarca Mathisen, Former Executive Producer, NBC Today

"Life-changing book! It gave me the tools to be calmer and more assertive at the same time. Not an easy task. Instead of getting louder to get my point across, I now have a better understanding of how to 'meet people where they are, not where I want them to be.' My leadership scores are the highest ever." —Kathi O’Neill; Managing Partner, Rice Cohen International

The second edition of Gutsy brings the powerful ideas found in the first edition into today's networked environment. Social media has changed the landscape of the workplace. There have been amazing changes utilizing technology (especially social media) to bring inequities to the forefront of the conversation. Thus, many new books for girls have been added to include gender equity, diversity and climate change. Girls are being taught to get GUTSY at younger ages.

There are also many more organizations included in this second edition that are places for women to find community and ways to participate both locally and globally. Newer films have been added that have an emotional connection to the changing world in which we live.

There is a section that includes the fastest growing workforce demographic, women between the ages of 40-60, where peri-menopause and menopause is now discussed openly and how "the change" impacts women at work. For example, in corporate Japan there are "quiet rooms" where women can go to rest and reset.

Gutsy - How Women Leaders Make Change, 2nd Edition, is available at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Sylvia-Lafair/e/B0025L48WS?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1661718364&sr=8-1.

A New Perspective On The Role Of Women In Society - GUTSY: How Women Leaders Make Change By Award Winning Author Sylvia Lafair

Sylvia Lafair is the founder of Creative Energy Options (CEOinc), a global business consulting firm and the world’s leading authority in Pattern Breakthrough Leadership Development, a Top Global Leadership Guru and award-winning author

The headlines in 2017 have been filled with story after story about how the role of women in Western society has dramatically changed for the better. From politics to entertainment and everything in between, we have watched history unfold as women have stopped asking for equality and instead have taken charge, stepping into leadership roles across all segments of our society. Women no longer talk about change, hope for change or ask permission to change - they instead make change.

Multi-award winning author Sylvia Lafair has written the book on what it takes for women to speak out, take risks, and stand at the leading edge of change. Entitled 'GUTSY', it is the playbook for women in 2018 and beyond. Readers will learn to Observe and Understand behaviors that have stood in the way of true collaboration, and Transform into the world of outstanding partnership (OUT). From exploring models of being gutsy, to what it means to have a pink or blue blanket, her wildly entertaining book gives readers the map to build a future completely unlike the past.

"Women today can, as I often say, 'clear the past to free the future' by standing on the shoulders of Gutsy women such as Abigail Adams, Katharine Hepburn, Arianna Huffington and Sheryl Sandberg," Lafair stated. "I strongly believe that we are at a tipping point, as my book shows, to redesign relationships between men and women for the benefit of all of us."

'Gutsy: How Woman Leaders Make Change' has received eight major industry awards including best business book at the San Francisco Book Festival (2012), The Southwest Book Festival (2013) and the Paris Book Festival (2013).

Lafair appeared on the Today show with Kathie Lee and Hoda to discuss effective use of the slower vacation months of summer to prepare for requesting a promotion in the fall - by being clear and direct rather than waiting to be asked.

She was given an award as one of the top 25 Women in Business by the NEPA Business Journal and The National Association of Women Business Owners for her mentoring to help women move beyond being pleasers to become truth tellers. She explores how to breakthrough outdated patterns learned in childhood that no longer support positive growth in the workplace.

'Gutsy: How Women Leaders Make Change' has received high praise from industry leaders of every kind across the USA:

“This book hits the spot for every business woman, actually every woman. It helped me rethink, reclaim, and reinvent my priorities for work and home. I am stronger and more willing to take a stand for what I believe in and not hold back.”
Joanne LaMarca, TV Producer, Today

“I bought the book for my wife and out of curiosity started to read. She didn’t get it till I was finished. I truly understand her better. Even more, I communicate differently at work and big dividend, I can be a stronger ally in helping my daughter grow into a strong woman.”
Mark Siegel, Sr. Vice President , MJC Corp.

“GUTSY, the book and the workshop were life changers for me. I am more able to speak out sooner and encourage my staff to be better truth tellers so issues don’t fester. The world has changed and the world of playing it safe and being pleasers, the one I inherited from my mother, no longer works. I suggest males as well as females read this eye- opening book.”
Yvonne Cangelosi, President at SPEX CertiPrep Group Companies

“Being in the beauty industry, I am surrounded by creative females every day. However, there is still a tendency to hold back and once my staff began applying the concepts they learned from GUTSY, relationships became more conflict free and more effective. The good news is they took what they learned from the book and workshop and brought it home. A double win.”
Debra Neill Baker, CEO, Neill Corporation

The success of 'Gutsy' resulted in the development of Gutsy Weekends, now offered through Lafair's company, Creative Energy Options Inc. The workshops offer women usable and unique insights that blend knowledge from business and psychology.  It’s a weekend that includes active participation experience – edutainment that uses film, story, music, art and the peacefulness of being in nature to awaken new ideas and possibilities. This will be available as an on-line program in 2018. Women from all walks of life  can share key concepts about their own personal roles as a leader at work, at home - everywhere.

Author Sylvia Lafair is the CEO of Creative Energy Options Inc. (CEOinc), a firm that challenges the status quo of workplace relationships. The key is that as women become more daring men can learn to become more caring and the formula for success is: Daring + Caring = Sharing.

Over the past 30 years their team has searched for the hidden emotional mechanisms at work in a typical office environment. The discovery of why people respond the way they do has profoundly changed the way the company thinks, coaches, consults and develops programs. They believe there is a series of patterns that underlie behavior and has been a missing link in understanding the core of office politics, absenteeism, law suits and poor productivity.

The company's Pattern Breakthrough process, not found in any other coaching or programs, is what enables them to prepare clients to transcend business frustrations. The company continues to win awards for Pattern Breakthrough Coaching and Total Leadership Connections.

Lafair is an innovative thought leader who has worked with McGraw-Hill, Avon, Google, Lockheed Martin, Merck, Microsoft, Novartis, and many other globally recognized companies.

Sylvia Lafair is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at sylvia@ceoptions.com. All her books are available at book retail outlets worldwide. More information is available at the company's website at https://ceoptions.com.

About Sylvia Lafair:

Sylvia Lafair has hiked the Inca Trail into Machu Picchu, bungee jumped in New Zealand, ate indiscernible stew in the Amazon, slept on reindeer skins at the Ice Hotel in Sweden and when she sits long enough, writes books, challenges her husband, and explores the meaning of life. She is the award winning author of 'Don't Bring It To Work' and the companion workbook, 'Pattern Aware Success Guide'.

Sylvia offers a foundation of personal and professional exploration in every program, every book, every speech she gives. Her award-winning book, 'Don’t Bring It To Work' is one of the top 9 books for every boss to read. Sylvia retooled her skills as a noted psychologist to explore and chart how family patterns show up at work. She prepares leaders and teams to find the sweet spot of cooperation and productivity and make work a place of high learning with lessened stress.
