In the summer of 1999, she had an epiphany that confirmed her life purpose: To inspire women to live more fulfilling lives. At the time, she was good at what she did, but not passionate about it.

Success Magazine named her book, Why Not You? one of the "Top 25 Must-Read Success Books." Her book Happy Women Live Better: 13 Ways to Trigger Your Happiness Every Day helps women make intentional choices right now to increase their happiness on a daily basis. Her books have also been translated into seven foreign languages.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2016This was an amazing book to read. I highlighted my way through it and it was a great guide for women. It even got me to think differently and helped me go about how I think and handle things in life. I recommend this book to every female in this world. It's life changing and you won't be disappointed. Women, it's time to think differently :) This is truly a blueprint for a successful life as a women. We're already powerful but these habits will change the game forever. I just graduated from college with my Bachelors and these habits have been with me ever since I read the book. Before I graduated, I read this book and the way I finished the rest of my year was phenomenal. I changed the way I thought, the way I handled certain situations, my mindset was on another level and I felt powerful and successful. Valorie Burton did an amazing job with this. I will forever keep this book with me!! 5 STARS

- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2012Successful Women Think Differently: 9 Habits to Make You Happier, Healthier, and More Resilient
This book had me at the very first question Valorie Burton poses in the introduction, "What makes one woman succeed at high levels while another - with seemingly more resources and experiences - falls short of similar goals?" I could not believe my eyes! Valorie Burton had captured on paper the very question I had pondered in my heart for years. In "Successful Women Think Differently", Valorie delves deeply into that one question and emerges with 9 life-changing treasures she calls habits. Through sharing her own experiences and the experiences of other women, Valorie presents each habit in the form of an invitation to step into a personal coaching session with her as she walks with you through real-life learning that helps you connect-the-dots to create your own picture of success. In the pages of this book, you will be challenged, confronted, and even uncovered. However, if you are serious about living a Passionate, Powerful, and Purposeful life - "Successful Women Think Differently" is an invaluable resource for how to. "Think" about it!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2022This book was straight to the point and held a point of view that really caused me to yield and consider the points made in it. I'm looking forward to my next read from Valerie. As an author myself, I really appreciated how well put together the ingredients for success were organized. Definitely one that'll be up for a second read when needed!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2019This book was extremely helpful in changing my thought process in the way I view my personal experiences as a business woman and my personal life. I love the way the author referred to scriptures in the Bible. Although, she used examples and stories from who are successful, I often found myself and them. I was able to connect based on what I have seen done and heard as a entrepreneur. I highly recommend the book whether you want to move forward as a business woman or in your personal life. I am PUSHING FORWARD to a happier me and successful entrepreneur.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2015I picked up this book after a colleague recommended it. Wow, am I glad that I did. The title sums up her book nicely. I feel as though I have shifted my state of mind. As a middle-aged women, I often feel like I have more questions than I should have in life at my age...that I am behind in achieving goals. Even, that I am a failure, a fraud, a disappointment, especially to my own self. Now I know that it's not unusual to feel this way, and that it is ME that can change my thoughts, my habits, my choices, MY LIFE! Valorie's book opened my mind, enough so that I have already began making changes, and it feels great. I now have different thoughts, and momentum. I also have a lot of things to do! I recommend her book to any women who desires more in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for anyone wanting to do some self coaching
I ordered this book because I misread the title, I thought it was called Sucessful women speak differently; I was looking for a book on how speech patterns affect our way of showing up in the world. When I got it a read the Christian slant I thought I wouldn't take away much but I loved this book. As a coach I was familiar with the concepts and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to do some self coaching. Great journaling prompts to get ones creative juices flowing. There were also a few fems which I willing be applying to my coaching practice.
