Women Connecting With Women
I just finished a 14 week study of this book along with a group of
friend
s. We all felt we experienced much personal growth as a result of reading this book. We also bonded together as a group & spent time sharing helpful life experiences with one another. In short, I think we connected with one another while learning from the book how to set boundaries, how to be a people helper, how to nourish ourselves as well as others in our lives, how to resolve conflicts in a way that benefits all involved. The book offered very practical, hands on advice on ways to enrich and improve your life, thereby enriching and improving the lives of others you have contact with. The book is also thought-provoking and causes you to search your soul for answers.
This book teaches you how to have relationship skills.
