Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Business success is spelled in many different ways. For most, it's dollars in the millions. For some, a corporate title with global perks. Yet others count on creativity to reach their goals. Milazzo, a pioneer and entrepreneur in the field of legal nurse consulting, considers all of the above--but, most importantly, identifies and skillfully employs 10 strengths common to both genders. It is, however, aimed at women because of the unique and documented bonds between and among women, not to mention the financial power of 6.7 million business owners and $1.2 billion in revenues. Her practical idea? That five promises together ignite 10 different strengths, from passion to female fusion; each strength is accompanied by actions to take, steps to consider, the "promise" connection, plenty of quotes, and a more-than-appropriate case history. The last strength, female fusion, is in reality a structured workshop to hold with 10 powerful women to help further life and work goals. New Age? For sure. But definitely a time and a place to venture into and explore. Barbara Jacobs

5.0 out of 5 stars Girls Just Wanna Have Fusion, February 10, 2006
This review is from: Inside Every Woman: Using the 10 Strengths You Didn't Know You Had to Get the Career and Life You Want Now (Hardcover)
"Inside Every Woman: Using the 10 Strengths You Didn't Know You Had to Get the Career and Life You Want Now"
by Vickie L. Milazzo...

Gals,if you have ever been to an all girls Tupperware party, you already may realize that the fun is not in buying all that plastic stuff to preserve our food, but it is the time and companionship we spend with the other women. We turn the party into a confessional of sorts, saying things to each other, we might never say in mixed company. We build each other up, congratulate each other on small things, but it means so much to us. The fun is in preserving our self-worth(Okay, and maybe our sanity), and it is the other women that truly understand how to do that. You may not realize it, but if you recognize this experience, you are already in tune with Vickie Milazzo's strength #10 of the 10 strengths you will find inside this book, and inside yourself, 'Female Fusion'.

"Inside Every Women" is a realistic and doable, no nonsense approach to improving your life, and your career. It's not some new age, idealistic, find your higher self and other senses, mumbo jumbo. It is a look at the ten empowering and marvelous strengths EVERY woman has within themselves, and Ms. Milazzo will help you find them. Fire, Intuitive Vision, Engagement, Agility, Genius, Integrity,Endurance, Enterprise, Renewal and Fusion. A chapter is devoted to each of these 10 traits. They are laid out in a well thought out,intelligent, and comprehensible way, and some terrific examples of how to gather these strengths are given as well. By the end of each chapter you will already feel ready to get up and go. By the end of the book, you may feel fired up enough to write your own book!

With each strength, you will also make 5 promises to yourself. The promises are the same, but applied differently to each strength. Each Chapter has a place to write down your ideas, that will be prompted by some insightful questions given to ask yourself. These promises will "provide the fuel" as Ms. Milazzo says. For example: Promise 1: "I will Live and Work a Passionate Life". For your "Intuitive Vision", strength, you will describe a vision of an accomplishment you want to achieve.Write it down, and Promise 3: what action you may take towards it each day(and then do it!). You will also find some personal stories from women that have found these inner strengths. In the last strength, the 'Fusion' section, a well structured meeting of women is planned out. Fahgettabout that Tupperware party, this Fusion party, where women get a chance to share their uninterrupted thoughts(no competition from burping plastic products),and get positive feedback, will be much more meaningful in your life. And..if you plan to do this, you can invite other women to the group who you feel are incredible and inspiring.

I found this to be one of the most inspiring and motivating self-improvement books I've ever read. I found myself nodding my head with recognition, and anxious to get to the promise section at the end of each chapter.Vickie Milazzo is a self-accomplished woman, who runs her own company. She's a go-getter with vision. She knows how to get things done, and is also pretty good at stressing relaxation plays a big part as well. She is kind enough to impart all these words of wisdom to us. Read them and just try not to be motivated by them. I think the strength she helps us find within us, may be applied to any part of lives, personal as well as career. Any area you want to improve.

I was fortunate enough to receive an advance copy of this book, and can hardly restrain myself from telling all the women I know about it. If you have a dream. a vision, of something in your life you want to accomplish or change for the better, I highly recommend "Inside Every Woman". It will light that fire you have glowing inside of you.

Enjoy the read....Laurie

5.0 out of 5 stars Making Your Passion Become Reality, February 10, 2006
This review is from: Inside Every Woman: Using the 10 Strengths You Didn't Know You Had to Get the Career and Life You Want Now (Hardcover)
Women innately have passion, intuition, endurance and flexibility, qualities that are often left unused or that are buried with the confusion and daily routine of our lives. Vickie Milazzo, in her superbly written "Inside Every Woman," teaches us to focus our attention on what is truly important and to ignite the fire of our passion, that goal we would like to see come to fruition, that we have always desired but that seemed hard or impossible to achieve. With Ms. Milazzo's guidance and techniques for self-improvement, the way is made clear, if you are willing to put her ideas into action and to remove the unnecessary distractions in your life.

With 10 chapters on the vital elements that make up Ms. Milazzo's plan for success, you will find many nuggets of wisdom and inspiration to keep yourself on track. Each chapter has some elements of journaling, as there are places to write down answers to questions that will help formulate ideas, and 5 Promises that help you set goals and are good to reread as reminders. I am especially partial to Chapter 2, which is about eliminating the clutter in your life, your mind and your space, enabling you to use your vision and imagination without the meaningless diversions and minutia that take up your time. This idea is reinforced in Chapter 9, which includes a section about removing the emotionally negative words that may be in your vocabulary.

The chapters are on many topics, among them integrity, endurance, renewal and enterprise. The latter is a fascinating chapter that makes you realize where you are at the present time, and what you want for the future. Every chapter ends with a short true-life story and a wonderful selection of quotes, my favorite by Eleanor Roosevelt, "Do something every day that scares you."

Ms. Milazzo's mini biography at the end of the book is proof that her strategies work. Her impressive list of accomplishments would be the envy of many, but to those of us ready to light the fire of our passion, Ms. Milazzo is a trailblazer and an inspiration. Her dazzling smile speaks of a woman who has achieved the satisfaction of reaching her goals, and has the delight of sharing her wisdom with others.
