Review: Cheryl has a wonderful optomistic outlook and will inspire all who read her book. This is a fun book to read as well as full of specific "survival tips." The specific tips guide readers on how to move on over the hurdles in life and be a productive person again. Cheryl is creative, witty, funny, and energetic with her enthusiasm...even after all the big bumps she has faced.

Summary: A Terrific Book
Review: Cheryl tells us that she is just an average person, not a therapist with many degrees after her name. However with her clairity and sensibility she describes her personal rough times and guides us on how to overcome personal difficulities. Through her optimistic approach she outlines help for others in overcoming obstacles and setbacks. She is an amazing and inspirational person who has accomplished much. At last a real self help book on how to get one's life back on track and start soaring again.

Summary: Overcoming Adversity
Review: SOARING THROUGH SETBACKS is an all-in-one guide and testimony about surviving
the worse situations that life can throw your way. Author Cheryl Perlitz offers
insight, hope and suggestions on dealing with difficult times with a positive
outlook.

Using nature, Perlitz illustrates how the cycle of life takes you
through different types of changes on a continual basis. Each change requires
you to go through a grieving process in order to advance to another
period of happiness in life. Comparing challenges and responses to a
river, the various seasons, and climbing a mountain, she shows
how overcoming any obstacle is a process. How you face that challenge decides
your success and readiness to continue on to the next journey.

SOARING THROUGH SETBACKS is written in a conversational tone as Perlitz shares
her story of losing her husband and how her life was changed forever by his
passing. She uses her story as a parallel to dealing with other difficult
situations, such as the national grief experienced after 911, the grief of
losing a job, etc. and gives palpable ways to deal with the grief and loss.
Each chapter begins with a nature analogy and ends with a list of survival
tips.

SOARING THROUGH SETBACKS teaches you that grief is a part of life that must be
experienced in order to make you a better and richer person.
