Starred review from July 1, 2024
Finding personal power through becoming an expert on one's feelings and experiences is the main idea that reproductive/hormonal health practitioner Hill (Period Power) emphasizes throughout this work. Geared toward women, the work explores the stress-response system and how it can be managed and rewired to increase resilience. She asserts that many women are socialized as children to be "good" and to put others' needs before their own. She argues that this leads to resentment, frustration, and problematic coping skills as adults. Using the stories of the women she has worked with as a life coach, Hill provides examples of ways to identify and overcome procrastination, self-doubt, and indecision through increased awareness of stress responses. The book's tone is that of a trusted friend, and its chapters expertly explore common issues: defensiveness, people-pleasing, having difficult conversations, and more. VERDICT Filled with clear and pragmatic advice, this book is a thorough and fresh approach to embrace and bolster one's inner power by considering its link to the nervous system and stress hormones. Recommended for readers who are interested in an approachable self-help volume.--Julie Feighery
