Landmark Education Grad Writes Book to Empower Women


Single Working Moms, A Journey to Greatness - Author Cheryl Parker Moves, Leadership Program

NEW YORK, March 14 /CNW/ -- With her recently self-published book,
"Single Working Moms, A Journey to Greatness," Cheryl Parker has added book
author to an already diverse repertoire of professional roles that includes
National Spokesperson for Organ Donation until 1999, President of Cheryl's
Mops and Dusters and Financial Services Consultant. "Single Working Moms, A
Journey to Greatness" is a work of empowerment and inspiration -- inspired by
Cheryl's life experiences -- that chronicles the lives and victories of other
single moms and addresses topics ranging from grieving relationships through
loss and divorce to parenting and finances. The book also serves as an
instructive resource by offering expertise on issues including: Promoting
Yourself Back into the Workplace, Decorating on a Dime, Time Management,
Organizing Our Kids, and Healthy Snacks In Minutes.
Confronted by the unexpected death of her eight-year-old daughter Rachel
in 1998, Cheryl left her corporate career in Telecommunications in search of a
path that would impact her community and make a difference. Four years later,
Cheryl was busy juggling three businesses and raising her son, but felt
hampered by personal obstacles that were preventing her from living a life of
inspiration and empowerment. Following a friend's recommendation, Cheryl
completed the Landmark Forum in February of 2006 and enrolled in Landmark's
Self Expression and Leadership Program that June. While in the Self-Expression
and Leadership Program, Cheryl discovered that her ultimate life goal was "to
create something that could empower and inspire women to create abundance and
vitality in their lives." On November 24th, 2006, Cheryl made her dream a
reality with the publication of "Single Working Moms, A Journey to Greatness."
Cheryl remains an active public speaker and advocate for single mothers and
has committed part of the proceeds of her book to local women's organizations.
