Reviews

"Dr. Suzan Johnson Cook is a brilliant and dynamic woman. Her remarkable life is a testament to the power of her message." --Former President Bill Clinton "Dr. Sujay has the ability to invoke all audiences, regardless of race, gender, religion, or socioeconomic status. Through her colorful words, Dr. Sujay shares inspiration and encouragement that leaves one feeling revived and recharged." --Bishop T.D. Jakes "Becoming a Woman of Destiny brings to mind my mother, Coretta Scott King. The four pillars discussed in Becoming a Woman of Destiny reflect the life [my mother] lived and the lessons she taught as she moved into the second half of her life after my father's assassination. To all mature women, this is a must read to accompany you on your journey to become one of the Wisdom Women." --Bernice A. King "Cook creates a bold and meaningful template for self-actualization among women over fifty, replete with personal stories of "women of destiny" of her acquaintance, told skillfully and with respect and admiration. Cook herself is a strength; her experience in religious counseling, as well as her clear, optimistic take on Christian values and her obvious enthusiasm for the subject, will leave readers in all phases of life inspired." --PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
