About The Book
She Is Me, veteran journalist Lori Sokol, PhD, introduces readers to thirty-five women hailing from all walks of life who have successfully utilized qualities like compassion, empathy, introspection, and solidarity to create change and transform lives. Through interviews with women including Gloria Steinem, Billie Jean King, and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Leymah Gbowee, readers will come to understand how these traits, which have long been considered soft and weak in our patriarchal culture, are actually proving more effective in transforming lives, securing our planet, and saving the world.

“Because Lori Sokol tells the truth about her own story—and listens with her heart—thirty diverse women have told her the truth of their lives. She Is Me takes us from personal to global.”
—Gloria Steinem
“In more than one sense, Lori Sokol takes apart patriarchy with these stories of women forging new paths to global stability and prosperity. Read this compelling book and you’ll be guided further along your own path, fueled by hope.”
—Swanee Hunt, chair of Hunt Alternatives and Eleanor Roosevelt Lecturer at Harvard Kennedy School of Government
“Lori Sokol has done something extraordinary with She Is Me: she writes stories—chapters—about the women who have shaped her, shaped this world, warriors and SHEroes and activists and Artivists—brave and bold and delicious women, women we know of and hear of and fall in love with but never get quite near. What Lori has done beautifully—seamlessly, dare I say—is bring them to life in a way that makes you actually feel that each woman is a new friend. This book should be read by all women and all girls because THIS BOOK is filled with hope and possibility and unlimited power.”
—Amy Ferris, author of Marrying George Clooney: Confessions from a Midlife Crisis
