Book description
On My Own sends the refreshingly positive, and supportive,
message that being alone is not a sign of failure but can be an
empowering and liberating experience.
Society can be cruel in its assessment of a woman alone, regarding
her as defective or deserving of pity. Similar pressures cause women
to be ashamed of losing the status of mother, wife or girlfriend, and
to dread the prospect of 'going it alone'. But, as the author of this
inspiring book points out, being on your own can be a vital, intensely
creative experience in which you can find your own voice and live a
fulfilling life.
The case histories and positive view of On My Own will
resonate with every woman, young and old, since it touches on a
sensitive nerve shared by women all over the world.
Florence Falk is a psychotherapist with over 20 years' experience of
treating women of all ages.
