About this listen

Nearly one in five girls aged 16-17 years meet the clinical criteria for depression.
One in fourteen young Australians (7%) aged 4-17 experienced an anxiety disorder.
These figures only get worse as our girls age with one in three women in Australia experiencing anxiety.

This indispensable guide will provide the tools to raising a girl who is happy and confident. Because when you raise a girl who likes herself, everything else follows.

> She will strive for excellence because she has faith in her ability to achieve it and the
confidence to pick herself up.
> She will nurture her physical and mental health because it's natural to care for something you love.
> She will insist on healthy relationships because she believes she deserves nothing less.
> She will be joyful and secure, knowing that her greatest friend and most capable ally is herself.

Packed with practical, evidence-based advice, Raising Girls Who Like Themselves details the seven qualities that enable girls to thrive and arm themselves against a world that tells them they are flawed.

1. A girl who likes herself has a power perspective
2. A girl who likes herself has body confidence
3. A girl who likes herself owns her body
4. A girl who likes herself is calm
5. A girl who likes herself is independent and masterful
6. A girl who likes herself has strong relationships
7. A girl who likes herself is herself

Free of parental guilt and grounded in research, Raising Girls Who Like Themselves is imbued with the warmth and wit of a mum and dad who are in the same parenting trenches as you, fighting for their daughters' futures.

Enlightening a must-read for everyone

My daughter suggested it as she was reading for her daughter's, and I was intrigued. Listening, I was aware it was speaking to my own inner child as I was raised and realizing so much applied to my own self healing need. This information should be shared with the world. Thank you for the inspiration and enlightening this book provided.

Learned not just about how to raise my daughter, but important information about how I was raised.

From start to finish I was learning how my own raising has helped or challenged my own worth as an adult. They have put together great information to help us all raise strong. Loving and understanding girls when it comes to their own health and wellbeing.

Good, Concise Guide on raising girls

The reader was good and engaging. Despite it being a self help book and not a work of fiction, the reader did a good job with making the audio engaging. Also, I liked the content. It focused on realistically how to help girls like themselves without being too passive or aggressive as a parent. Also, it didn’t get stuck in the “weeds” of “gentle parenting”. So many parenting books now seem to promote gentle parenting without acknowledging real life. For instance, in this book the authors talk about how girls need to have big feelings and express them but that doesn’t mean they can have a full on tantrum at dinner and ruin it for everyone, which I loved. I liked how it also talked about how girls need to learn to ask for what they want and not hint. And lastly, the conflict resolution chapter was especially helpful for raising kids and especially girls. I grew up in a time where a good girl was “nice” and went with the flow no matter how I felt about it. The conflict resolution is what I wish I had learned growing up; you don’t have to be mean to tell someone you don’t like something they did to you.

Holy Cow

This is a must read/listen. If you're human, you need to read this. The message is so supportive and actually attainable. This book won't teach you how to be the best parent in the world, but it will teach you to be the best parent for your children.

Excellent Reminders

this book was really well done, it didn't feel preachy or inaccessible, the advice was concise and well researched and well rounded - I feel like their actions were big picture for a big impact rather than an insane amount of small ideas that are overwhelming to implement

Insightful

Loved it and found myself listening at every opportunity. I'm hopeful to lead my daughter toward a life of self respect, love and confidence.
