From the Inside Flap:
Women are powerful yet peaceful. We are strong yet sensitive. We are listeners yet we lead. We are resilient yet we remember. We are sacred yet sensual. We are wives and we are mothers. We are single and we are caretakers. We are spiritual and we are sisters.
There is something about women that makes us uniquely connected and, beyond that, simply powerful! In The Woman Code, author, journalist, and TV personality Sophia Nelson shows women that everything we need to lead the lives we want is already inside us. Nelson helps women create a road map of timeless values coupled with modern-day approaches to help us face the challenges of our time.
It is time for women to return to a universal Code of personal and collective conduct, a
Code that will allow us to fulfill all we are born to be.|Sophia A.

"'Women live by a variety of unwritten codes,' argues former White House reporter, attorney, and author Nelson (Black Woman Redefined). 'Your life Code is formed from the time You are a small girl. . . . Your Code either propels you to greatness or keeps you stuck in the challenges and obstacles of your life,' she writes. Nelson explains how women can recognize the codes they operate by and use them to reshape aspects of their lives, using what she calls the 'Personal Codes,' the 'Emotional Codes,' the 'Spiritual Codes,' and the 'Professional Codes.' Within each section, she discusses topics that plague many women. For instance, within the Personal Codes, she addresses how to "'Make Peace with Your Past' and 'Guard Your Heart.' In explaining each of these codes, she gives real-life examples and advice, provides takeaways, and identifies key words. Nelson sprinkles Scripture passages throughout the book, but sparingly and only to lend biblical credence to her analysis. Unlike many of today's self-help authors. Nelson doesn't indulge in an us-against-them mentality. Rather, she says that women should be strong. assured, and responsible for their own actions and choices. This refreshing approach is both empowering and enlightening and should appeal to women of all ages."--Publishers Weekly
