"Every woman is on a journey searching for answers to her life. What is her purpose and why is she here?"

Barbara Jenkins has had some incredible journeys, including a three-year walk across America for National Geographic. She now takes her expertise as an observer of human behavior and a collector of rare wisdom and puts it to work for all women in Wit and Wisdom for Women.

Jenkins has culled the delicious kernels of truth from her encounters with women and has gathered this rich harvest of love together to nurture women of all ages and circumstances. Her own unique insights about the various topics in Wit and Wisdom for Women provide continuity and texture to this bounty of comfort and inspiration


For Society's Baby Carriers, Caretakers, and Civilizers...

Quips, comfort, and tried-and-true advice await you as you travel along with Barbara Jenkins and contemplate the superb collection of quotations she has gathered from women across the globe.

On Careers
"The technology takeover in the future will be intimidating unless we remember machines don't laugh, cry, love, nurture, or give birth. Women do."

On Adventure
"Be bold and daring. Face life and circumstances with a fearless, dauntless spirit."

On Family
"Rock your babies. Old women knew the value of rocking chairs long before psychologists."

On Spiritual Quests
"Life is more than the clothes a woman wears, food she eats, car she drives, career she builds, children she bears, or house she lives in. When a woman searches for God and opens her heart's door, a miraculous thing happens."

Wit and Wisdom for Women is a delightful compilation of musings to encourage you today and inspire you tomorrow.
