Here’s what people are saying…

“Self-care has never been a concept that I understood nor felt I could afford, time-wise. Burnt out, in denial about my health, and emotionally depleted, quick fixes to feel better no longer worked. This is where Damiani’s insightful coaching, encouragement, and ferocious self-care advocacy led me on a journey to finally understand what it means to take care of myself emotionally, spiritually and physically. Despite setbacks and destabilizing life events throughout this journey, Damiani has always accepted me for where I was at in life. No judgement, just empathy and loving kindness. It is this appreciation for my struggles, and Damiani’s love nudges that have helped me to be gentle with myself and re-examine what I want self-care to look like for me. In doing so, I’ve begun to shed old patterns which no longer serve me, drop the guilt around putting myself first, and embrace self-care as a lifestyle practice. These actions have not only helped me to create more balance in my life, but ironically have benefitted my relationships. Thank you Damiani!”

“Damiani, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful journey. I love your voice in this piece. It feels authentic and wise and teaches without sounding high and mighty. On a different note, the aesthetics of the e-book are beautiful…the fonts, their sizes, the colour choices…really adds to the experience. By the time I got down to the Afterword, my eyes were tearing up - so - yup…the emotion is coming through in your writing. Thanks for the experience and thanks for sharing more resources to support me, the reader, the mom, the woman who you’re speaking so eloquently to. A great reminder!”

~ Adrienne Wood - Mother, MS Warrior, Digital Media Teacher

“After reading your book a second time…and yes, there will be many more times that I will re-read your inspiring words, Damiani, I didn’t even make it to page 10 yet again, before the tidal wave of insight struck.

Each page speaks to what I feel deep in my soul. Stop trying to be all things to everyone and just be me. Be still, be calm, but wild and free. I have struggled for many years to find my place. Struggled to feel worthy of love, compassion and happiness. All while I’ve tried to be successful in a world not built for the woman I am. At 37, I am now trying to learn who I am and do what fuels me on every level.

Your words and energy inspire me to stop and listen to what my intuition and higher self have been trying to break through for a very long time. I am so grateful the universe brought you into my life, and already I feel I have learned a great deal from you your wisdom.

Thank you from the very bottom of my soul for the insight you and your book have given me. I am grateful beyond words to you for sharing this part of yourself!”

“Damiani spoke to my heart with her words. This book really helped me see what has been in the way of my pleasure my whole life. It also helped me gain compassion for every woman’s choice in how they live and love.

The piece about how we instinctively give as women, even and especially when we are empty, was my biggest aha. It’s as if we are all designed for depletion. I’m so thrilled to bring that to the surface and for all of us to examine and release that way of living.

This book will change lives, generations deep. Thank you so much for sharing it with the world, Damiani.”

“Here’s the thing: you want Damiani. You want her in your ear, on your pillow, in your head. She’s the best big sister saying, “hey, girl, how about a nap? A break? A walk to the sea?”

Her honest and vulnerable ebook “An Open Letter to Western Women,” gave me permission to consider ways I’m pushing too hard, not allowing the feminine and creative parts I crave to live and thrive in me. All that striving has a cost, and I know this is a debt I don’t want to incur. There are ways to live boldy and beautifully, and take care of myself, too. Damiani’s got my back!”

★★★★★

“Damiani Sekoulidis' "An Open Letter to Western Women" is a wonderfully penned call to self-care. It uses a deeply personal testimony as evidence of a growing need for the modern woman to re-evaluate the roles she takes on and the load she inadvertently carries as a result of these often self-imposed responsibilities. She breaks it down to our very chemistry, when she explains the effects of giving too much and spreading oneself thin. In the long term, the risks outweigh the benefits of such a lifestyle and Sekoulidis pulls in the wisdom of other experts and science to make these points clear.”

"If you are a woman working in a man's world like I am - or if you are a woman in general - this is a must read. Our wo-manual as it were."
