Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
Penguin; 352 pages

"Eat, Pray, Love is the true story of the author's personal bout with depression and divorce and how she used food, travel, spirituality and love to reexamine what is truly important in her life.

Elizabeth's journey is a courageous one. It is one of a 34-year old woman who experiences an existential block with regard to what she wants out of life, versus what society "tells" us we should want out of life. It is a story that will resonate with any woman who has ever questioned her purpose or wanted to tap into her inner courage to follow bliss.

I haven't read a book in years that was so captivating and difficult to put down. Reading her inspirational journey will make you laugh, cry and question your own values, what's truly important in your life and how to make it happen in a meaningful way. I highlighted many parts of this book and it is on my desk in my office. I've used it to help other women who are going through difficult periods and feel alone. All of the women I have met that have read this book all said the same thing; it is truly transformative!"
