Stripped Down to the Core: a Guide for Professional, Bicultural Women Seeking to Live an Authentic Life Sherry Bakhtian Phd

This book is written for the professional, bicultural (born into one culture and living in another) woman who is experiencing the pangs of a life or work transition. Suddenly, the path that she has followed for so long does not feel stable or comfortable anymore. When she realizes that she must leave the old path, and those around her do not support her decision, she may find herself alone and feeling lost on her new journey toward true self-discovery of her authentic self. The purpose of this book is to guide the professional bicultural woman through this crucial life transition by providing simple and easy to use tools, a fresh perspective, and support on her journey. Stripped Down to the Core is about exposing the core of who you are, and creating a healthy space between you and where your stories have pushed you to go. This woman typically is an overachiever who defines herself by her accomplishments. She is afraid to release behaviors and emotional responses that do not serve her anymore, because she is afraid of losing herself. This guide shows her how to let go of these old habits, precisely for the purpose of finding her authentic self. Author Sherry Bakhtian is a professional, bicultural woman and spiritual life coach who learned the hard way how to let go, and who wrote Stripped down to the Core to help smooth the road for others on the same path.
