“VALERIE’S BOOK IS
EVERY WOMAN’S GUIDE TO A MAGICAL LIFE!”

Valerie Gangas turns the world of “the latest trend-hottest style is what you need” on its head, using her bold, passionate, humorous, down-to-earth voice and style to speak directly to every woman who’s seeking “another way” to live the life she wants, set her own rules, become naturally more attractive and in the process, uplift herself and the world. Proclaiming, “Change your consciousness, change your life,”

Enlightenment Is Sexy is every woman’s self-help guide—written by a self-styled “professional troublemaker/21st century awakened woman”—for regaining, revitalizing and empowering her highest sense of self, allowing her to create the life she’s always dreamed of.

“My journey started with the loss of my beautiful mother, transitioned through a period of suicidal depression and has “ended” where I am today…creating my life of magic!”

"Valerie Gangas's Enlightenment Is Sexy provides women (and men) with an eye-opening, paradigm-shifting guidefor living a more conscious, empowered and fulfilled life!"

"In Enlightenment is Sexy, Valerie Gangas offers a vision of possibilities of inside-out development. She shows that the core principles of ancient wisdom are practical and usable, even for ambitious, pleasure-loving moderns--all in a style that's funky, witty, engaging, and real. In person, she's all of that, and charismatic to boot."

About the Author

Once a self-proclaimed wild child, Valerie Gangas now holds a Bachelor of Arts in Comparative Religious Studies and Women's Studies from DePaul University and a Master of Arts in Transpersonal (spiritual) Psychology with a graduate-level certificate in transformational life coaching from Sofia University. 

After her mother's passing, she slid into a dark, suicidal depression, only to recover (her whole Self) when she learned Transcendental Meditation and had a profound, 180-degree turnaround of perspective-what she refers to as an awakening. Shortly after, she began working for the David Lynch Foundation, speaking all over the country about personal freedom, meditation and self-realization, and met Oprah Winfrey.

When Valerie told her story to Oprah and some of her top executives, Oprah simply said, "I want what that girl has."
