The Mirror Diaries is Out Now!

The first book in our Mirror Diaries series by self-compassion and body image researcher Vanessa Coulbeck is officially here! Links to order book one, Finding Grace, and the accompanying workbook, Beyond the Mirror is here. If you want to dig into the science behind this awesome middle grade novel and workbook, we also had Vanessa on Strong Girl Talk explaining why self-compassion isn’t just a nice idea, it actually provides you a performance edge. (The Limited Edition sweatshirt has been a favorite for a few girls who got it for Christmas!)

If you’re a paid subscriber, read on to grab your PDF with my favorite few exercises from the workbook. If you’re a free reader, consider upgrading to paid for sneak peeks, discount codes, swag and the chance to help support our authors—the proceeds from this newsletter keep our website up and running, and we donate a percentage of any net profits to organizations supporting girls in sport.

And finally, this is the last reminder that the Strong Storytelling for Athletes course kicks off on Thursday—use code STRONGGIRL for $100 off! It’s a live 8-week course (that can be taken asynchronously if you don’t want to join us live) that will help you finally make progress on that memoir, novel or other writing project. Learn more here.
