A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Life is full of opportunity for young women, but it's also far more pressured than ever before. Whether it's the proliferation or the homogeneity of images of beauty and success that wallpaper our world, we know what a beautiful woman looks like - and we know what a perfect life looks like too. We live in a world that floods us with expectations about everything - from what we should weigh to what we should wear to how often we should be having sex and how much money we should be making. As a consequence, we begin to feel that we need to tick all these boxes in order to have 'the Perfect Life'. When we inevitably fall short, we feel anxious - we feel that we are failing and have the sense we are losing control. As a result, increasing numbers of young women are battling with issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, bullying, perfectionism, toxic friendships and relationships, pressure to succeed or conform, and poor body image. At an age when life should be exciting, fun and relatively care-free, more and more young women are adrift and struggling.

Dr Linda Papadopoulos understands the issues and has the experience to guide and support young women to help get their lives back on track so they can feel happier, more confident, more in control. Unfollow: Living life on your own terms offers valuable insight and practical self-help to empower women to throw off the burden of expectation and start leading the lives they want to lead.

Quatrième de couverture :

Do you feel under pressure to be perfect and to follow everyone else's idea of what your life should look like?

Your twenties is the period when every headline and every tag line is telling you that you should be 'having the time of your life'. But in a world that floods us with expectations about everything - from what we should weigh to what we should wear, to how often we should be having sex and how much money we should be making - it's easy to feel as if we are failing and to become so focused on the 'ideal' that we become blind to our own needs.

It's time for you to write your own script and stop trying to conform to the one written by society, parents and your peers. In Unfollow, Dr Linda Papadopoulos offers valuable insight and practical strategies that will empower you to start leading the life you want, and have the relationships you want, free from the toxic load of anxiety and unrealistic expectations.

Unfollow will help you live life on your own terms - and find a happier, more authentic and confident you.
