Description

A girl who loves herself: She has ambitions and goals because she believes in her abilities. She takes care of her mental and physical health because it is natural to look after the one you love. She seeks healthy relationships because she believes that is what she truly deserves. She is happy and feels secure because she knows that her most stable friend and capable ally is herself.

Based on scientific research as well as their personal experience as parents, the authors of this book present with simplicity and clarity seven key points that will help us raise happy girls in a world where it is not always easy, and sometimes very difficult, to be a girl.

Like every generation before us, we want our children to live lives better than our own – safer and with better prospects. We want our daughters to be curious, independent, and ambitious. More than anything, we want them to have the courage to be authentic. We want them to understand who they are and to truly love themselves.

If we had to summarize the role we have as parents, it would be this: we want to raise girls who love themselves as much as we love them. Unconditionally.

This book is for you if...

  • You have a daughter aged 5 to 12+ years and you want to build a foundation for mental health early on.

  • You want to prevent problems of low self-esteem, social anxiety, and body image issues.

  • You are concerned about how to talk about friends, school, body, sexuality, social media, and pressure.

  • You wonder how to support your girl when she feels “not enough” or “too much”.

What will this book offer you?

It will give you the words, examples, and tools to stand by your daughter – without controlling or shaping her. This is not just another “proper parenting” manual, but an ally that also helps you see your own role with new eyes.

Inside the book you will find:

  • How to cultivate your daughter's self-confidence from preschool age.
  • Techniques to help her recognize and express her emotions.
  • Ways to help her set boundaries, deal with comparison and shame.
  • Tips on how to talk about body image, the digital world, and friendship.
  • Stories from other parents and empowerment exercises that work in practice.

The opinion of the experts

“A book with heart, experience, and humor. It makes you feel that you are not alone – and guides you in a grounded and caring way.”
– Dr. Hayley Watson, clinical psychologist


“All girls deserve to feel enough. And all parents deserve a guide like this.”
– Parenting Today Journal

Read an excerpt

“A girl who feels accepted does not need to chase acceptance. She does not need to become something else. She simply is.”


“Self-esteem is not built from the outside in. It is the soil in which you root it – every day, with every word, with every hug.”

    A book that opens your mind... A book that can be read by any woman, whether she has children or not. I think I will refer to it from time to time when needed.
