Description

'Funny, positive and life-affirming, Laura is like a PT for your self-confidence.' SARA PASCOE 'Clear-headed advice and relatable honesty.' MATT HAIG 'My favourite kind of book - like a glass of wine with your smart, funny friend.' KATHERINE RYAN 'When I was a kid the first album I owned was by Wilson Phillips. I remember the lyric from the song Hold On, 'No one can change your life except for you'. It's how I've chosen to live my life. There is a freedom when you take back control. Stop waiting for someone to save you and do it yourself. I recognise everyone has different levels of struggle but no one just hands you a chance. We don't have to wait for Prince Charming to rescue us, or wait for the opportunity to come to us. We can be our own heroes. We can create our own dreams.' Laura Whitmore knows lucky breaks come to those who are ready to step into their own power, even when they're feeling nervous as hell about it. In No One Can Change Your Life Except For You, she shares her experiences of overcoming heartbreak, body image worries, self-doubt and insecurity. Laura has learned that optimism, self-belief and learning to accept yourself, will bring you more than anyone else can ever give you. And she shows how her own struggles can help you through yours. Frank, heartfelt, inspirational and funny, this is a book to remind you that the hero you are looking for is YOU.
