5.0 out of 5 stars Talk about positive!
In this book about life, Mary reveals how the "good girl" we learned to be when we were little, can sabotage us as women at work, at home, at life! If you feel like you're spending too much time and effort trying to please everybody, you've got good reason to buy "Bodac!ous Woman" by Mary Foley.

1.0 out of 5 stars HAW, HAW, HAW!!...great for a few chuckles...
...published by "Bodacious Publishing" no doubt because no legitimate publisher would touch it with a ten foot pole...just a typical "personal success" book of which there are literally hundreds available...and if you like Tony Robbins no doubt you'll like this book as well...but has anyone ever verified any of the claims the author makes in the book?...I doubt it...but...

5.0 out of 5 stars Bodacious! Freedom, August 4, 2004
How do you retain your feminity and still develop the skills needed to be "Outrageously In Charge" of your life? Mary Foley can show you how. Written in a language women will not only understand, but relate to, Bodacious! Woman should be recommended reading for all women searching for the answers to be in charge of their lives personally and professionally. Chocked full of real-life success stories, Bodacious! Woman is an excellent read, not just once, but over and over again. I pull out my copy often for inspiration or just a good chuckle. Bodacious! Woman will brighten a gloomy day!

4.0 out of 5 stars I'm not even the target audience, October 27, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Bought this to inspire my darling wife, who runs her own (great) small business, and thoroughly enjoyed it myself. The style is easy, non-preachy, and you don't get the feeling that you're tripping over a big ego. Easy to read and useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, August 29, 2008
This review is from: Bodacious Woman: Outrageously in Charge of Your Life and Lovin' It! (Paperback)
I have read several of Ms. Foley's books and have enjoyed them all. If you have a chance to attend any of her seminars do so, she is everything she claims to be. She is sincerely dedicated to helping women realize their potential.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wanna know "Bo"? Read this book., December 20, 2007
This review is from: Bodacious Woman: Outrageously in Charge of Your Life and Lovin' It! (Paperback)
The tips and strategies Mary Foley lays out in "Bodacious! Woman" will help any woman deal with any situation that arises in her professional, or personal, life. Her points are illustrated by great stories and examples from her life, and the lives of women she's observed on their journeys from "good girl" to Bodacious Woman.

Her style is conversational, her message is clear, and the rich vein of humor running through the book makes this a pleasure to read. And to read again if you need some inspiration or motivation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Strong enough for a woman... But I liked it too!, November 1, 2005
By 
OK, I am not a woman. This fact doesn't in any way stop me from learning and applying the great life and career skills from a woman who obviously has much to say, the bodacious attitude to deliver the message and the credentials to back it all up.

I am impressed with Mary Foley and her voice of clarity in the core of a strong empowering message. Women would be wise to listen. Bodacious! provides new meaning and a refreshing context for life and career. Men would also be wise to take note and embrace the message for themselves and the women in their lives. I know I will share this with all the important ones in my life and career. Great job Mary!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bodacious Woman!, August 9, 2004
By 
D. Y. Kroeger (Milford, New Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
You can tell by reading that Mary Foley lives what she believes. By example, she shows us what Bodacious looks like and how to make it happen. Mary pumps us up and shares the stories of many others who've grown to be Bodacious along the way. This slim, powerful book's got a can-do attitude with specifics as to how. And when Mary laughs at herself, we laugh too. She's like us and as we read, we realize we've got a lot of what it takes be Bodacious too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Learning to be a Bodacious Woman!, August 5, 2004
Reading Mary's book had me saying, "been there and done that"!
I love the way she jumped in with eyes wide open to be an energetic optimisitic employee and found out how is "really is".
Mary shows so clearly that you alone are in charge of your destiny and YOU have to take control and MAKE IT HAPPEN. Helping women to continue taking a stand, being in charge of their lives, is what Mary really is successful in relaying. Mary's enery is contagious in this book. I gave it to my daughter when she started in the business world and would highly recommend
others follow suit. Living the color of your nail polish can only be a good thing! BODACIOUS is catching! Thanks, Mary
