Most smart women got smart the hard way, through first hand experience. And they have the scars to prove it—painful memories of sleepless nights, tears, confusion, anger, self-doubt and anxiety. Sure they have learned about life, love, and relationships, but they paid a high price for their wisdom.
There is an easier way for a woman to get smart. How? Simply by listening to and learning from the experiences of other women. Wisdom without pain, understanding without heartache, insight without melodrama—that’s what this book is all about.
The smartest woman knows that getting smart doesn’t have to hurt!
“WHAT SMART WOMEN KNOW is great book....Every woman needs a copy to carry in her purse, keep at her bedside table or at her desk. It cuts through confusion and goes straight to the heart of our issues and denial…I recommend it highly and will be carrying a copy in my purse.”
--Melodie Beattie, author of CODEPENDENT NO MORE
“Mind-boggling…wise…really sane…It’s such a pleasure when someone captures some aspect of life in a clear and kind way, so that we can recognize ourselves, recognize our problems.”
--Anne Lamott, author of BIRD BY BIRD: Some Instructions on Writing and Life
