What’s inside Be Confident Be You

The heart of the book is simple and powerful: the two things you have the power to control in life are your thoughts and your actions. This is great news because these both have a huge impact on how your life turns out. Change your thoughts and you change your world. Be Confident Be You breaks this idea down into practical, teen-friendly strategies you can apply right away.

You’ll find ideas to try—from practising positive self-talk and building a coping kit to learning how to tackle fears and keep motivation when it’s tough. The book also explains the science behind why these strategies work, helping teens understand the “why” behind confidence-building. Activities are designed to be carried out solo or with family and friends, giving you the freedom to choose the path that best fits your life. This makes it an excellent addition to any teen self-help library or book collection.
