10 Ultimate Truths Girls Should Know

For many girls it starts early. The desire to be perfect. The need for approval. The longing for acceptance and being liked by a lot of people. Thanks to social media, these desires now get channeled online. Girls can curate an image, build a following, and test-drive identities until they find one that draws attention and applause. But in this quest to be liked and noticed, girls often fail to feel loved and known. The result is a generation of girls who hunger for real and authentic relationships - yet are unclear on how to create them. From popular blogger and bestselling author Kari Kampakis comes a powerful book for girls in the digital age. Designed to empower teens and tweens through the Christian faith, it's packed with godly wisdom and practical advice related to identity, friendships, social media, and a relationship with God. Topics covered include: <ul>
<li>Living for God's approval, not human approval;</li>
<li>Cultivating a true identity;</li>
<li>Using social media wisely;</li>
<li>Building a positive reputation online;</li>
<li>Spreading kindness, love, and compassion;</li>
<li>Distinguishing online friends from real friends;</li>
<li>Building deep connections that last;</li>
<li>Handling rejection, criticism, and volatile emotions;</li>
<li>Activating your Christian faith; and </li>
<li>Making an eternal difference, not a temporary splash.</li>
</ul>For anyone exhausted by the quest to impress - and ready to rest in God's unconditional love - Liked is the answer. Written succinctly with thought-provoking questions, it's an ideal resource for a small group or youth group study, and a conversation-starter that will quickly unite mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends by speaking to the female heart.

What if taking care of yourself was the first step to helping your family thrive? If you've parented long enough, then you've learned firsthand why your personal wellness matters. You've felt the pain (or consequences) of devaluing yourself. Whether your wake-up call came from a diagnosis, a breakdown, an issue with your child or spouse, anxiety, or simply feeling depleted and numb, it most likely unveiled this truth:&nbsp; Mothers are humans too. We require love, compassion, rest, and renewal. Taking care of our needs strengthens us and equips us for the road ahead.&nbsp; In More Than a Mom, bestselling author Kari Kampakis offers a practical, approachable, and attainable framework to stay on a healthy path. You can take your kids only as far as you've come-and since their strength builds on your strength, you must take time to focus on you. More Than a Mom is about unleashing God's power in your life and standing on timeless truths that will help you <ul> <li>know your worth and embrace your purpose,</li> <li>build strong, uplifting friendships that you can model for your children,</li> <li>quit the negative self-talk and make peace with your body, and</li> <li>learn to mother yourself by resting and setting boundaries.</li> </ul> The world shaping your children is more callous and complex than the world that shaped you. Kids need to be stronger, smarter, and more rooted in what's real. Empower your son or daughter by tending to your heart, soul, body, and mind. Give them a vision of a healthy adult-and know that as they launch into the real world, they will build on what you started.

Moms are eager for tips and wisdom to help them build strong relationships with their daughters, and Kari Kampakis's&nbsp;Love Her Well&nbsp;gives them ten practical ways to do so, not by changing their daughters but by changing their own thoughts, actions, and mind-set. For many women, having a baby girl is a dream come true. Yet as girls grow up, the narrative of innocence and joy changes to gloom and doom as moms are told, "Just wait until she's a teenager!" and handed a disheartening script that treats a teenage girl's final years at home as solely a season to survive. Author and blogger Kari Kampakis suggests it's time to change the narrative and mind-set that lead moms to parent teen girls with a spirit of defeat, not strength. By improving the foundation, habits, and dynamics of the relationship, mothers can connect with their teen daughters and earn a voice in their lives that allows moms to offer guidance, love, wisdom, and emotional support. As a mom of four daughters (three of whom are teenagers), Kari has learned the hard way that as girls grow up, mothers must grow up too. In&nbsp;Love Her Well, Kari shares ten ways that moms can better connect with their daughters in a challenging season, including: <ul> <li>choosing their words and timing carefully,</li> <li>listening and empathizing with her teen's world,</li> <li>seeing the good and loving her for who she is,</li> <li>taking care of themselves and having a support system, and more.</li> </ul> This book isn't a guide to help mothers "fix" their daughters or make them behave. Rather, it's about a mom's journey, doing the heart work and legwork necessary to love a teenager while still being a strong, steady parent. Kari explores how every relationship consists of two imperfect sinners, and teenagers gain more respect for their parents when they admit (and learn from) their mistakes, apologize, listen, give grace, and try to understand their teens' point of view. Yes, teenagers need rules and consequences, but without a connected relationship, parents may never gain a significant voice in their lives or be a safe place they long to return to. By admitting her personal failures and prideful mistakes that have hurt her relationships with her teenage daughters, Kari gives mothers hope and reminds them all things are possible through God. By leaning on him, mothers gain the wisdom, guidance, protection, and clarity they need to grow strong relationships with their daughters at every age, especially during the critical teen years.
