A surprising number of women have a poor relationship with money. They may refuse to deal with it, give it away, or in the opposite direction, spend it wildly. This text aims to help readers understand why this is and enable them to change their feelings about money, to make it work for them.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Women's relationship to money is the subject of this self-help guide by Ealy (The Woman's Book of Creativity, Beyond Words, 1995) and Lesh, a psychotherapist and the coauthor of Building Self-Esteem (Prentice-Hall, 1997. 2d ed.). The authors take readers through the often complex relationship that women have with money, from childhood experiences through retirement. They analyze fears about money; society's messages about money, women, and the workplace; and taking charge in financial matters. Designed to promote participation, their book includes a series of exercises for self-analysis. The case studies clearly illustrate real-life situations and concerns, challenging readers to redirect their thinking. According to the authors, these changes in attitude will have an impact on the next generation: "As we abandon the old fear-based messages about money, we allow our daughters to do so as well." An innovative book; recommended for public libraries.?Lucy T. Heckman, St. John's Univ. Lib., Queens Village, NY

This review is from: Our Money Ourselves: Redesigning Your Relationship with Money (Paperback)
I have gotten more insight and more deep revelations with this book than any other. I've read Think and Grow Rich, The Richest Man in Babylon, Money 101, The Meaning of Money, Money and Spirituality, and of course 9 Steps to Financial Freedom and none have even approached digging out the deep root of self sabotoge than this book. 9 Steps has been great for the practical stuff. But OurMoney Ourselves unearths the hidden insects, bulbs and weedy roots that hinder a bountiful harvest. A must companion volume to 9 Steps to Financial Freedom and A Courage to be Rich (both by Suze Ohrman). If you can only get one, start with this book. It will prepare the soil for the seeds of 9 Steps to take root.
