A great read

Loved this book and gave it to all my friends. We all found it funny, wise and uplifting to see the stories of so many women woven together in such an interesting way. Personally I treasured it for the shared discussions that we had about it, we all enjoyed talking about the truths we saw in it. We can see that we are not alone in our experience and we learned from it at the same time that we laughed. Great book!

Saucy, Sexy, Sophisticated and Full of Secrets

Barbara's fourth masterpiece Dish! is all about "S"- Saucy, Sexy, Sophisticated and full of Secrets to better understand the mysteries of the Universe (or at least women). I have purchased copies for many of my female clients. They loved it and have found Dish! to be a liberating self-coaching support. A must read .... for clients, moms and daughters alike... And it's not only for women. Anyone going thru a life transition and asking themselves the tough questions will learn something important. And guys, don't you want to know what we think of you? If you are a manager, understand what's going on in the hearts and minds of your female employees. Laurie Hillis, MA Leadership Consultant and Executive Coach Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Find 4 hours

As a long time fan of Barbara Moses, I had been waiting for Dish for a while but knew that this author would eventually get around to writing a book that transcends career and touches the broader context of women's lives. Spending a rainy Saturday with Barbara and the other women whose voices she shared was almost like attending one of her seminars - chatty, provocative and ultimately validating and helpful. Girl friends are great but there are few observers of the broader scene with the wisdom and perspective that Barbara brings to the debate of how do I manage my career, create a personal life and deal with all the other complications that life has thrown my way. As the most personal book that Barbara Moses has written, Dish also provides glimpses into the woman herself - and this humanizes the subjects she has chosen to write about even further. Unlike other self help and career management books - which tend to preach - Barbara writes from the trenches. She is one of us and I liked that a lot. So find 4 hours or so, curl up in your favorite chair and enjoy.
