Dr. Pam Chubbuck’s latest book about menarche and coming of age, Passages Into Womanhood: Empowering Girls to Love Themselves, is an international success!

Upon receiving “Passages”, Lynn in Santa Fe wrote, “I opened your new book, Passages into Womanhood: Empowering Girls to Love Themselves, and I felt your energy reach out and hug me, as if you have imprinted yourself (I suppose you have!) in the pages themselves. The loving embrace I felt, as I was scanning the table of contents, wishing, of course, that something like this had been around when I was younger, touched me on a level I did not expect. I cried tears of many emotions for the next several minutes. I have never had an experience like that, from simply looking at the table of contents of a book before. It is abundantly clear to me the love that you hold, and that you have put in this project. I am looking forward to reading it completely. I am in awe already.”

A few days later Lynn wrote: “Dear Pam, I finished reading Passages into Womanhood, and it lived up to my expectations - and I felt like you were holding me the entire time I read it. What a gift. I found it a moving book to read, and already I feel that it has informed how I am with my daughter. Thank you for helping bring this to consciousness. ~Lynn”
