Here is what people are saying about the book...
"Overcoming Emotional Baggage is an excellent book written by a woman for women. It is written in an explicit and lucid language and gives a clear picture of the struggles, challenges and uncertainties many women face as they journey through life carrying their baggage. Gladys gives positive examples of how to shift and finally get rid of the baggage in order that life can be lived in an abundant, healthy way. The Journaling Moments which she introduces at intervals throughout the book offers women the opportunity to reflect on chapters and consolidate what has been read whilst at the same time giving expression to their own inner feelings.
Gladys recognises the pertinent issues which affects women at all levels of society and encourages them to give themselves permission to get off the treadmill even for a short while and to enjoy life. She is also interested in women building up themselves as ‘whole’ persons, and this include, as she emphasizes in her book, the building of a close and personal relationship with God. She understands that the process of healing and wholeness from emotional hurts is a continuous process as women allow God to chip away the mechanism and influences which sometimes tries to prevent them from reaching their goal.
If you have faced any disappointments in life whether as a young single woman, married woman or even married yet single again woman, you will receive strength and support from reading this book. This book is also a useful reference for those involved in ministering to and mentoring women."

“I am amazed and delighted to see the finished project by Gladys Famoriyo, "Overcoming Emotional Baggage"! I am thinking to myself, ”Where did this fantastic young lady find the time, energy and desire to share such powerful, and much needed information? Although I am old enough to be her mother; I am already excited about the information that she has prepared that is going to change my life from "better to best! Thank you, Gladys for every challenge, every sacrifice, and every price you paid to birth this Woman's Guide to Living the Abundant Life.”

"Gladys writes with passion, experience and knowledge on a subject that is close to her heart. Using her own journey as a backdrop she paves the way to introduce concepts and strategies to empower other women. Her intuitive and extensive understanding of what makes women tick is second to none as she provides a way forward for those trapped by past experience and faulty thinking. As a Christian Gladys brings an added dimension of power, love and sincerity to her work as God's live giving word speaks through the pages of Overcoming Emotional Baggage."
Alison Tinsley, Author, ‘Confessions of an unfaithful heart’
"Gladys does a great job of showing all the different baggage carried by the 'female hybrid' by using characters to illustrate her point. This also covers the coping techniques of hybrids even though they ay look like they have it together externally. Five powerful principles are shared on how to overcome your issues. It also has journaling moments, which allows you to pause and reflect. The book does not provide easy answers, it compels you to confront issues you may have neatly tucked away."

"Reading your book was very enlighting and bringing things to light. It is an inspiring book and completing the book I felt a whole load lifted up my shoulders. Now I can say "No" without feeling guilty and now I have more time on my hands. I recommend all sisters to read this book, cause I have seen the difference in my life and you can too. Gladys keep up with the good work."
