5.0 out of 5 stars Courage to be honest about ones' experiences, January 11, 2009

This review is from: Female Empowerment - A Personal Journey (Hardcover)

Even though many people may not agree with Mrs. Goff, it is very courageous of her to share her most personal experiences which includes her heartfelt honesty of dealing with negative experiences. Sharing these experiences, specifically about her treatment from her family, peers and what it is like to raise an autistic child are honest and moving. Through the bad experiences, she makes it clear that she has moved on and that she loves her son, husband and parents and is grateful for her help. It is nice to read about personal experiences where the author is being truthful and honest. The author puts "herself" out there for the chance to help others who may be experiencing the same obstacles or share her feelings on certain situations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! What a great improvement!, December 31, 2008

This review is from: Female Empowerment - A Personal Journey (Hardcover)

The author has completely revised this book, corrected some errors and re-written things that were not thoroughly explained. However, message of women empowering themselves through difficult situations is still strong and apparent. I highly recommended this book for others who want to be inspired by a true story.
