I Am Woman

A desire to embrace our differences; to strive for harmony in this world of terrorism and the absolute must to protect our children...

I am Woman presents a nuanced view of how we could be living our lives in the near future; valuing parenthood, family and paid work, and where we treat one another with respect.

I wrote the book to share aspects of my life that may help others to change theirs for the better. I sincerely hope the book opens up minds and hearts to question and improve how we are living life...'
