Reviews
"Bonnie St. John has, against all odds, found great joy in her life. And rather than hoarding it...she generously shares the treasure."--Jeannette Walls, New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Castle
"Bonnie's life is proof that we can all be happy no matter what. Read Live Your Joy to walk a while alongside her and learn how to do it."--Marci Shimoff, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Happy for No Reason
"How Strong Women Pray is a powerful book that teaches us valuable lessons about prayer, about ourselves and about God's open heart toward each one of us"---Debbie Macomber, author of Knit Together: Discover God's Pattern for Your Life
"I have been an avid student of leadership for nearly 40 years, reading thousands of books on leaders from all walks of life and on the general subject of leadership excellence. This is the first book in this territory where my first thought was to share it with my wife and daughter. Bonnie and Darcy have created a fresh conversation about leadership from a woman's perspective which is well crafted and very much needed. I highly recommend it."
---Douglas R. Conant, retired president and CEO, Campbell Soup Company, New York Times Bestselling author of TouchPoints
"Bonnie and Darcy have created a new genre: bringing together inspired narrative with valuable advice from some of the most influential women of our time. This mother-daughter adventure gives us a firsthand account of the journey future female leaders will experience as they embrace the wisdom, strength and influence from those that came before them. As a mother of two daughters, I loved the book!"
---Rohini Anand, senior vice president and global chief diversity officer, Sodexo
