Excerpt of the Day: "The Power of WOW" by Lori Bryant-Woolridge


Looking to get your sexy back, to feel good in your own body in the place you stand today?  Welcome to Stiletto University!  With Lori Bryant-Woolridge as your instructor, you’re sure to find your sexy and become more confident in yourself.  The user-friendly, nine-week program in her book The Power of WOW breaks down that elusive WOW factor — and then gives you proven techniques to elevate your esteem and maximize your sensuality.  And isn’t that what we all want?

**stilettos not required

Here’s a look at The Power of WOW:

“I want to be less self-conscious and more comfortable in my own skin.”

“After finding out about his affair, my self-esteem has been shattered. I want my sexy back, not for him, but for me.”

“I wish I could be more aggressive when it comes to sex, but I don’t want to seem loose.”

“At forty-two, I want to truly enjoy sex with my mate.”

“Between kids and work, I don’t have the time or energy to be sexy.”

“I want to feel sexy and confident in all aspects of my life, not just the bedroom.”

“I seem to be projecting the wrong something, because I’m still manless.”

“I’m tired of being alone.”

Sound all too familiar? Kind of like the conversations you and your girlfriends have been having for years? Since you’re reading this, I’m guessing you’re feeling somewhat lacking in the sensuality/sex/romance departments of your life and you’re looking for a remedy.

Well, happily, you’re in the right place. And kudos to you for even picking up this book, because admitting to yourself that you’re not on top of your game in the womanly wiles department takes courage. I’m mean, we’re supposed to know all this stuff, right? How to be sensual and alluring and dynamite in and out of bed.

Like her.

You know who I’m talking about. Ms. Thing. You’re sitting in a bar minding your own business, thinking you’re looking cute and hoping someone else is going to think so too. And then here she comes. She sashays confidently into the room oblivious to the fact that all eyes, including yours, are on her. She’s wearing the perfect little black dress (the one you’ve been searching for but always see on some other woman) and strutting over to the bar in a way that makes every body part sway with come-hither appeal. It’s a walk that brings men to her side and sends women into private places to practice. You feel both jealousy and admiration toward this diva. Talk about paling by comparison. Suddenly, you don’t feel so cute. And of course, she sits down right next to you and instead of ordering the cocktail du jour like every other girl in the room asks for some drink you’ve never heard of.

On closer inspection, you see that she’s more striking than beautiful. More sensuous than sexy. Of course, within minutes, some Chris Rock-looking guy is elbowing you out of the way to get to her. You watch her handle the admirer, graciously accepting his compliments with a “you’re-so-sweet- but-this-is-never-going-to-happen” smile and sending him back to his friends thinking he’s Denzel Washington. You realize then that the key to her irresistible charm is confidence. This is a woman who is totally at ease with herself. A woman to study and emulate, not envy.

She has the power. That indefinable “wow” that seems to inhabit a lucky few and evade the rest of us. But you want it too. But where did she get it? And where do you start?
