Applause from Young WomenThis book is an incredible and entertaining source of positivity, encouragement, and relief for girls who feel like they have to fit certain criteria of body image and reach absurd statistics of diet culture to feel like they're enough (Spoiler: you don't!). Reading this took a huge weight off my shoulders as someone who spent her teenage years, and a bit before that, comparing herself, criticizing her own weight, and constantly being in her head about what she looked like. Your CORE Strength helped me realize that is not what life's about and that there's so much more in store for us to strive for and achieve than a number on a scale! Jenna, age 19 Your CORE Strength is the perfect guide for teenage girls to navigate the modern expectations of what it means to be healthy and to understand the true meaning behind physical and spiritual health. I am so grateful for the new perspectives this book holds, and love how applicable it is to the time we are living in! Ella, age 18 Your CORE Strength is an incredible book for young women who are seeking guidance in their health journey. It provides a knowledgeable approach, tackling topics of physical, emotional, and mental well-being in today's society. I enjoyed the plethora of tips and tricks included in the book and cannot wait to implement them into my everyday life! Alyssa, age 18 Your CORE Strength helped me build and work on my relationship with healthy habits and a positive mindset. It helps reinforce the love and joy you should feel with your body's purpose and builds one's strength by having this knowledge. Amy's book fills you with confidence and comfort in who you are and what your body's purpose is. Amelie, age 17 Praise from the ExpertsAs a mom to three daughters, this resource is a wealth of information and inspiration for the entire family. Amy Connell explores the multifaceted nature of health and gives teens the tools to incorporate these concepts into daily life. As a therapist, I appreciate the introduction of a shared vocabulary upon which mothers and daughters can connect and grow. Kate Casey LPC, JD Now more than ever teen girls need encouragement and straight talk to help them cut through the noise around health, exercise, and eating. Amy Connell touches on an extensive list of topics with expertise, grace, and a thorough understanding of how tough it is to be a girl in this culture. Amy's words will be a burst of biblical truth and relatable sanity that soothes a teen girl's soul in a world that's too often mixed up about how to be healthy. Heather Creekmore, Podcast host and author of four books I wish I would have read this book 20 years ago! Your CORE Strength is an invaluable resource for teen girls. Amy uses a biblical worldview to emphasize the importance of feeling and functioning well while debunking the many lies of diet culture. Amy writes with knowledge, truth, and humor and will leave you feeling like you're chatting over coffee with a friend! Kristin Williams, RDN, LD, CEDS This is a resource I wish I had as a teen! Your CORE Strength is the perfect book for pre-teens and teens who want to learn how to get healthy without it feeling like an impossible goal. As a Jesus-loving dietitian, I love how Amy presents tangible ways to add positive health behaviors into day-to-day life without it being tied to diet culture. The best part is how she presents health from a Biblical perspective that is not just a verse being slapped onto another ineffective diet plan.
