BOOK REVIEW: "A breathtaking tale of resilience, ambition, and love, Lady of the Street: Beginnings transports readers to 1898 New York, where young Laura dares to carve a future beyond the shackles of her past. Against the brutal forces of poverty, prejudice, and corruption, she rises—fueled by courage, conviction, and the love that sustains her. With lyrical prose and powerful storytelling, this literary triumph captures the spirit of a woman who refuses to be defined by anything but her own strength and faith that endures." —NewInBooks.com

Following the brutal deaths of her father and brother, Laura steps off the ship in New York's harbor in 1898. At 18 years old, she begins her quest to be free from poverty, prejudice, and disease still haunting her Ireland home. Frightened but determined, she meets her first love. She then plunges into the shadowed corridors of Wall Street and champions those struggling with suffocating tenement living and the corruption that surround them. With courageous faith and the love of her life, she breaks through "The Street's" permeating Irish and gender walls to build a life of wealth and redemptive purpose for herself and others.

“Most of us do not make the interrelated wellness connections among choosing a job, managing our money, living our values in our relationships, or even playing and having some fun. Sharon has done a masterful, creative job helping us make that connection in Where Went My Want To?. The synergy she brings to her thought-for-the-day calendar is not just for women navigating through the “pause” but also for men who seek to understand and share the journey together. Thank you, Sharon for the daily gems of wit, wisdom, and even whimsy.” John W. Travis, MD - Physician & Author ("The Wellness Workbook, How to Achieve Enduring Health and Vitality")

"Where Went My Want To?" is a witty and wisdom-filled "thought for the day" companion book with practical lifeskill tips for women going through menopause & those who love them . . . who need a friend to laugh with them, cry with them...and believe for them when they can't. Someone who knows about the crazy thoughts, the gloom and doom, the oh...so tired body, and the yawns and sighs! With menopause, daily life routines & that “to do” list seem to be just too much to take. Many may treat us women as hypochondriacs...or assume we may take advantage of the "facts of our condition" & become downright unbearable to be around. Let's get real here. Doesn't truth set us free? Let's understand what is really going on and finally relax a little along the way. It is truly amazing how the body and soul can be influenced by the chemical changes taking place inside us. Men may also have “their pause” but not like ours! In addition, too few physicians as well as us more gregarious "talkative" sort tend to keep silent about the many ups and downs of this momentous time in life.

Michael Arloski, PhD., CEO Real Balance Global Wellness Services www.realbalance.com. "I can think of no higher recommendation than to tell you that when I was faced with a serious health challenge more than four years ago and required an ally to help me manage my return to full-time work, while in the midst of rehabilitation and recovery, I sought out the woman I considered the best wellness coach I had trained and contracted with her for wellness coaching services. Beyond the provision of direct service, the organizational skills and the ability to synthesize and compile information then put it into useful form that directly impacts a person‘s life is something else about Sharon I have been impressed with. I therefore, without reservations, recommend her book, Celebrating Your Journey, Lifeskills in Synergy."
