Diary of a Modern Day Goddess® book cover
Internationally published book by Author Cynthia Daddona.
Originally published by HCI, same publisher as Chicken Soup for the Soul® book series.
REVIEWS
"As a speaker and author of Diary of A Modern Day Goddess®, Cynthia will nurture your spirit, uplift your soul and tickle your funny bone." — Jack Canfield, Co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul® and Co-author The Power of Focus and The Success Principles
"Cynthia is a very funny lady. She got me in touch with my inner goddess, who turned out to be an old woman named Maude Frickert. I was so taken by her book on enlightenment, I leave the lights on 24 hours a day." — Jonathan Winters, Legendary Comedian
When most people hear the word "goddess," it conjures up an image of Greek mythology. Names like Venus, Aphrodite and Athena pop into your head. But award-winning writer Cynthia Daddona, author of Diary of a Modern-Day Goddess
(originally published by Health Communications,Inc.) gives us a much simpler definition of a "goddess"— a woman in touch with her joyful, feminine and spiritual self. But she doesn’t stop there.
With a fresh, humorous twist on the topic of spirituality in a modern-day world, Cynthia muses: "A modern-day goddess is a woman who focuses more on her inner spirit and inner soul than her inner thighs!"So how does one accomplish this if they don’t even know they are out of touch in the first place? Cynthia encourages readers to take an "en-LightenUp-ment" (TM) journey, meant to inspire and entertain you as you explore your own divine inner self.

A Romantic Greco-Roman Culinary Journey; Italy's Amalfi Coast (Draft DVD Cover)
TV Program
Hosted by Cynthia Daddona
(To be Released)
The Ancient Greeks recognized their standard of cooking as an important art form inspiring Archestratos, in 330 BC, to write the first cookbook. The area of ancient Greece now known as Southern Italy and Sicily has often been referred
to as Magna Graecia (Greater Greece). This is because many cities of Southern Italy and Sicily were founded by ancient Greek colonists beginning in the 7th century BC. As a result, the area's cooking was forever influenced by the ancient Greeks. Later, Greek gastronomy influenced many of the Mediterranean cultures and when the Romans recognized this, they soon hired Greek cooks for their kitchens and Greek cultural tutors for their children.
