The reviews were great.I quote from Elisabeth Leiba - A must-read for black women seeking to reclaim their power and well-being. Understand the philosophy of the African feminine divine. Find empowerment in the idea that places women of the African diaspora at the heart of their cultures. Learn how embracing this power can improve self-confidence, self-esteem, mental health, and emotional well-being.
A must read
This book is truly a gem! Elizabeth first book I’m Not Yelling was amazing but this book is literally in a class of its on!!! The extensive research that she has devoted to this book to give scientific explanations of the trauma that black women experience and live with is so enriching! This book helps to debunk so many stigmas towards black women. I enjoyed how it is written in an educational way so that anyone can find value. This book will help you to learn about black women, support black women, believe black women and love black women. If you need any assistance learning how to do any of the previously mentioned task then this is the book for you!!!!
Be Sure to Purchase More Than One Copy!
While Elizabeth Leiba's "Protecting My Peace" is explicitly written for Black women, its empowering message resonates with women of all backgrounds. Through its examination of the African feminine divine, the book emphasizes the vital role played by women in African cultures. By embracing this philosophy, readers can experience a profound life transformation, gain self-confidence, boost self-esteem, improve mental health, and nurture emotional well-being, leading to a genuinely empowering impact. After showing the book to my friends and family, I quickly realized I should have purchased more than one copy! Thank you, Elizabeth, for sharing your soul with us through the words in this book.
I saw myself
From the very first page I was pulled in. The words are a living testimony and record of the experiences of black women. She is a voice for the times and her call for prioritizing and caring for ourselves is to be heeded.
Poignant, Poetic and Perceptive
This book is even better than Leiba's first - I'm Not Yelling.The combination of the narrative and the narrator - Machelle Williams - makes the audiobook even more compelling than the print version.Leiba's books are positioned as books for black women. But if you are, like me, white they are eye-opening. If you have wondered what some of the experiences black women are like in the workplace, this book takes you on a journey learning about the real life experiences of black women in the world. And along the way, we learn self-care practices we can all use.Life for black women can be anything but peaceful. And this book explains how to protect your peace anyway."You are more than worthy and it's not your fault""You are courageous in every way"
