Common Sense Safety for Women by Joanne Morin Correia is a powerful blend of memoir, research, and practical guidance written to help women live more safely in a world where violence and harassment are persistent threats. Drawing from her own life experiences-childhood trauma, surviving sexual assault, navigating dangers during international business travel, and protecting her own daughter from attempted assaults-Correia transforms personal pain into a practical roadmap for empowerment and survival. The book addresses the ongoing crisis of violence against women in the United States, exposing the erosion of hard-won protections and the disparities in safety across regions. It highlights not only the sobering statistics of domestic violence, rape, stalking, and trafficking but also the cultural conditioning that instills fear in women from a young age. Against this backdrop, Correia emphasizes that fear, when understood and harnessed, can be a tool for survival rather than paralysis. Through chapters on abduction prevention, predator psychology, distraction crimes, cyber safety, and financial security, the book equips women with actionable strategies for everyday life. It underscores the importance of situational awareness, rapid decision-making, and realistic self-defense training tailored to women's experiences rather than outdated stereotypes. Correia also explores broader systemic failures-from underfunded shelters to gaps in legal protections-while advocating for societal change and education. Yet the heart of the book is deeply personal: a commitment to helping mothers, daughters, wives, and professionals learn to rely on their instincts, prepare for danger, and reclaim confidence in public and private spaces. Supplemented with references, self-defense resources, and printable safety posters, *Common Sense Safety for Women* is both a survival guide and a call to action. It urges women to recognize their strength, trust their intuition, and take practical steps toward safety while society works to close its many gaps. At once urgent and hopeful, the book shows that while we cannot control every threat, we can learn to live with resilience, vigilance, and common sense in an unsafe world. Because she knows what it feels like to live with fear, and also knows the power of overcoming it. For years, she taught self-defense to women and children, listening to countless stories of survival. This book is her way of passing forward what she has learned-hard lessons, practical strategies, and the unwavering belief that women deserve to live safe, confident, and empowered lives. Her hope is that every reader finds not just knowledge within these pages, but also courage, resilience, and the confidence to trust her instincts.
