Between family obligations and career commitments, it can be challenging for women to find the time to enjoy their own lives. For every woman who has uttered the words, "I just don't have time for myself," "The Beginner's Guide to Chick Night" offers a warm and witty look at practical ways women can return to their rightful place-on their own list of priorities. Author Colleen Kleven, co-founder of the Hanmer Chapter of Chick Night and founder of Chick Night International, shares an easy-to-follow handbook filled with practical advice that will help women everywhere recharge their batteries and learn to start having fun again. Based on real-life experiences spanning ten years in the lives of three women, Klevin's light-hearted guidebook presents ways women can bond with other women in order to reconnect with themselves while sharing recommendations from women who have experienced the intrinsic rewards of friendship that accompany a weekly Chick Night. Fortunately, there is a way for women to regain control of their lives and rise above a seemingly endless list of responsibilities. It's called true friendship-and the laughter, chocolate, and encouragement that come with it are just added bonuses."
