Publisher Description
Emmy(r) Award-winning Judge Cristina Perez, of Cristina's Court, imparts ten "laws" to empower women.
With her quick wit, charm, and genuine compassion, Judge Perez has not only redefined the role of intimidating TV court judge, but also gained the trust and respect from a new generation of young women. In It's All About the Woman Who Wears It, Judge Perez lends the same candid voice, humor, and understanding that she applies in Cristina's Court to ten impactful laws. Together, these laws can teach women that the real essence of being sexy comes from a strong sense of identity. They address the problems women commonly face that prevent them from realizing their full potential for happiness. Sharing personal experiences that have made her the confident woman she is today as well as the many real-life lessons imparted from her cases, Judge Cristina's words will resound among this new generation of women who take a no-nonsense approach to life and, above all else, want to be true to themselves.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Drawing from her work an empathetic, personable television judge, as well as a wife, mother, radio host, and columnist, Perez (Living by Los Dichos) produces 10 laws addressing common mistakes that keep women from "reaching our full potential." From the first, Cristina's no-nonsense candor will be familiar to fans of TV's Cristina's Court, and inviting to anyone who resents the coddling tone of many self-helps, though her sharp and humorous insights don't have the self-righteous aggression (or self-loathing undercurrents) of Laura Schlessinger's similarly-themed Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives. In Chapters like "Date Wisely," "Reinvent Yourself," and "Take a Risk," Perez calls for women to "create their own identity from the inside out," and to use that identity as a point of power from which to embrace life and make smarter decisions. Perez discusses issues like body image, aging, femininity and friendship, as well as romantic relationships from dating to engagement to marriage (including "Seven Deadly Sins of Marriage" to avoid). Each chapter is rounded out with tacked-on input from some (anonymous) outside voices, but Perez's fans will be satisfied, and likely inspired, by her assured but compassionate voice.
