Synopsis: From the author of Daily Cornbread, Seven Soulful Secrets will motivate women to become not just better than they are but the best they can be.

In a tone that is as encouraging and comforting as your favorite quilt, veteran journalist and NiaOnline editor in chief Stephanie Stokes Oliver shows women of all ages how to get the most out of life by finding their purpose and minding their mission. In seven wonderfully crafted chapters, Stokes Oliver reveals her soulful secrets in a simple but potent acronym that spells PURPOSE.

Purpose: plan, persevere, and follow your own personal mission
Ultimacy: release your best, “ultimate” self
Relaxation: reduce stress and incorporate daily self-care into your routine
Positivity: claim the joy in your life and celebrate yourself
Optimum health: make the commitment to self-improvement, health, and fitness
Spirituality: develop and maintain a connection to God/Spirit
Esteem: boost your self-esteem and create healthy relationships

At once a practical how-to book and a spiritual guide, Seven Soulful Secrets speaks directly to the African American women who embraced Daily Cornbread and to all women eager to live a life that is authentic, vibrant, and fulfilling.
