One of the most inspiring messages coming out of American culture today is that women are done being victims, and there's never been a better time for Fisher's straight-talking book to women about the need to understand our pasts and break the bonds that hold us back. 'Elizabeth Melendez Fisher Good allows us to witness a life full of secrets, survival, and resilience. Groomed is full of important information for those of us who want to enjoy the companionship of our best selves and those we serve in the world of social services.' --Dr. Stephanie Powell, Journey Out executive director; retired, Los Angeles Police Department
