I'm looking forward to enrolling my daughter in one of her programs if I can find a group close to me- but if not I'll be able to use the information from the book to help my daughter not feel cornered by the girl box. I think the ideas from this book are really great and wish I'd had something like this when I was going through that awkward stage. Like the author herself says I sometimes still feel that I need help reconnecting to my true me and not allowing myself to be pressured into to certain thoughts and ideas just because they are expected of me. I highly recommend this book!
