What I Told My Daughter: Lessons from Leaders on Raising the Next Generation of Empowered Women

In What I Told My Daughter, entertainment executive Nina Tassler has brought together a powerful, diverse group of women—from Madeleine Albright to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, from Dr. Susan Love to Whoopi Goldberg—to reflect on the best advice and counsel they have given their daughters either by example, throughout their lives, or in character-building, teachable moments between parent and child.

A college president teaches her daughter, by example, the importance of being a leader who connects with everyone—from the ground up, literally—in an organization. A popular entertainer and former child star urges her daughter to walk in her own truth, to not break glass ceilings if she yearns to nurture a family as a stay-at-home mother or to abandon a career if that’s her calling. One of the country’s only female police chiefs teaches her daughter the meaning of courage, how to respond to danger but more importantly how not to let fear stop her from experiencing all that life has to offer. A bestselling writer who has deliberated for years on empowering girls, wonders if we’re unintentionally leading them to believe they can never make mistakes, when “resiliency is more important than perfection.”

Contributors include: Geena Davis, Cecile Richards, Dolores Huerta, Rabbi Sharon Brous, Peggy Orenstein, Debora Black, Ayelet Waldman, Pat Benatar, Whoopi Goldberg, Dr. Susan Love, Nancy Pelosi, Alexandra Pelosi, Marie Osmond, Dr. Juliet Garcia, Jehan Sadat, Ph.D, Joanna Kerns, Madeleine Albright, Gloria Estefan, Nannerl O. Keohane, Jennifer Dulski, Dr. Marcia McNutt, Pamela Fryman, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Brooke Shields, Laura Bush, Mona Sinha, Gloria Allred, Joy Marcus, Judy Vredenburgh, Sharon Osbourne, Beverly Johnson, Michelle King, Dr. Karen Antman, MD, Dr. Amy Antman Gelfand, MD, Mary Steenburgen, Kimberley Hatchett, Cheryl Saban, C. Noel Bairey Merz, Alex Guarneschelli, Dana Walden, Mia Hamm, Margaret Abe-Koga, Roma Downey, Chirlane McCray, Blythe Danner, Sheila Bair, Ruth W. Messinger, Norah O’Donnell, Donna de Varona, Nancy Josephson, Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, Jeanne Newman, and Christine Baranski.

In a time when childhood seems at once more fraught and more precious than ever, What I Told My Daughter is a book no one concerned with connecting with a young girl can afford to miss.

A Mind of Your Own: The Truth About Depression and How Women Can Heal Their Bodies to Reclaim Their Lives

Depression is not a disease. It is a symptom.

Recent years have seen a shocking increase in antidepressant use the world over, with one in four women starting her day with medication. These drugs have steadily become the panacea for everything from grief, irritability, and panic attacks to insomnia, PMS, and stress. But the truth is, what women really need can’t be found at a pharmacy.

According to Dr. Kelly Brogan, antidepressants not only overpromise and underdeliver, but their use may permanently disable the body’s self-healing potential. We need a new paradigm: The best way to heal the mind is to heal the whole body.

In this groundbreaking science-based and holistic approach, Dr. Brogan shatters the mythology conventional medicine has built around the causes and treatment of depression. Based on her expert interpretation of published medical findings combined with years of experience from her clinical practice, Dr. Brogan illuminates the true cause of depression: It is not simply a chemical imbalance but a lifestyle crisis that demands a reset. It is a signal that the interconnected systems in the body are out of balance – from blood sugar to gut health to thyroid function – and inflammation is at the root.

A Mind of Your Own offers an achievable, step-by-step 30-day action plan – including powerful dietary interventions, targeted nutrient support, detoxification, sleep, and stress reframing techniques – women can use to heal their bodies, alleviate inflammation, and feel like themselves again without a single prescription.

Bold, brave, and revolutionary, A Mind of Your Own takes listeners on a journey of self-empowerment for radical transformation that goes far beyond symptom relief.

Weight Loss Motivation for Women: Change Your Mindset, Stop Torturing Yourself with Perfectionism, and Create Super Healthy Habits You Enjoy! (Motivation, Weight Loss Motivation, Self Love) (Volume 1)

You deserve to be the strongest version of yourself so that you can juggle all that your life throws at you!

Forget about dieting and torturing yourself with unrealistic fads…
It’s not about perfection. It’s about progress.
I wrote this book for a reason. I want to give you freedom from deprivation diets, freedom from bad days and hormonal imbalances, freedom from sleepless nights, and freedom from living in the past or in the future. The life is now!
You deserve to discover something better. You see, most women are not living. They are surviving…
Why?
Because women’s lives are so busy and we spend so much of our time nurturing others, we have a full arsenal of excuses to combat our own efforts at maintaining our own wellbeing.
There is no better day than today to start making simple changes that will make you feel and look so much better. You’ve taken a first step by having a look at this book and admitting that your lifestyle could use some healthy changes!

Take one more important first step with me and reflect on where you are right now:

-Are you overweight?
-Do you need to lose just a few pounds, or do you need to shed 20 or more pounds in order to be healthy?
-Do you want to have more energy and feel better in general?
-Do you have a healthy diet but need more physical activity to become stronger?
-Are you in good shape but know you have some unhealthy habits that are holding you back?
-Do you need to find more quiet moments in your day for reflection and planning?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, keep reading! Just a few small changes in your day will reap huge dividends in the effort to become the best and healthiest version of yourself.
Women in general are perfectionist. We compare ourselves to what we believe to be the ideal woman, and when we fall short of that ideal, we beat ourselves up and we give up. There is no perfect woman.
She is a myth…
Point out those women you think are perfect, the ones you believe have it all, and I promise it doesn’t take long to identify the flaws and burdens that they carry.
Stop comparing yourself to other women – the only woman you have to be better than is the one you were yesterday! Focus on where you are today and what your goals are for a more healthful lifestyle, a lifestyle that you deserve.

Throughout the book, you will discover:

-The nourishing power of self-love
-How to get and stay motivated
-How to quit “dieting” and create a healthy lifestyle you enjoy
-How to stay organized on a busy schedule
-How to create a balanced nutritional plan
-How to stop feeling overwhelmed and feel empowered
-Easy and natural weight loss tips
+ much, much more…
Focus on where you are today and what your goals are for a more healthful lifestyle, a lifestyle that you deserve.
Are you ready to start feeling like the best version of yourself? Healthy, slim, energized, brimming with joy and positive energy?
Let’s get started – what do you have to lose (aside from excess pounds…)?

Ladies in Charge: Self Empowerment for Women (Inspiring Women Stories) (Volume 2)

Let ten women empower you with their personal story. Sometimes it is hard to do that on your own. These women have turned their lives upside down because they were desperate for a change.

Do you hesitate about taking action and what exactly you should be doing? If you read these stories you realize that you can also overcome whatever obstacles you face.

In order to realize their dream, these women dived into the deep and swapped everything familiar – friends, home or their country- for the unknown. That takes a lot of courage.

How about you? Do you tend to take the easy way out? Or do you need a little help, a little inspiration perhaps from others, to choose instead a road with dangerous curves and unforeseen obstacles?

All women interviewed share their willingness to take control. They are ‘Ladies in Charge’. In some cases there is a fine line between willpower and rebellion, but they always act with respect for others. Each woman, in her own way is grateful for what her upbringing has given, even if this upbringing had shortcomings. They learned to make choices and live the way they want. You may call these women headstrong because they follow their instinct and do things their own way. That is what makes them enterprising, inspiring women.

So, be ready and willing to take charge…! Stand up for yourself, free yourself from barriers, take control, and believe you can do it. If in doubt, just read the stories of these ten women. Have the courage to live your dream.

‘Ladies in Charge’ is the second book in the series Inspiring Women Stories by Audrey Soekhradj. The purpose of this book is to motivate you and give you practical guidance for using your talents to the full so you can become financially and emotionally free.

The hundred questions in this interactive book, will help you make decisions that will influence your life in a way that you feel confident to take charge of your own.

As entrepreneur, career advisor, coach, author and speaker, Audrey Soekhradj uses her talents to help other women find their strengths and shine. She knows from experience that it sometimes takes another person to empower you. Overcoming her own setbacks, which she writes about in the first book of this series, ‘Amazing Women’, reinforced her belief that you can only be complete after you bring out the best in yourself. To help you do that, she developed the Empowering Coaching Quickscan. This quickscan blends seamlessly with this book and adds a unique value: making the shift from dreaming to acting. Order your free copy online.

Use your talents to bring out the best in yourself. If you don’t, you deny others the possibility of learning from you. More than that, you deny yourself the chance to be of real importance and to make a difference. Discover the power woman you truly are and take charge!
