Made for More is an inspirational call to action full of creative tools and tips to help young women live a balanced, purposeful life.
Life has many moving parts. Sometimes, young women are full of doubt, uncertainty, fear, and more questions than answers as they figure out who they are, what matters most to them, and how to "adult." Made for More is the essential book that young women need to help them relinquish the pressures of who they "should be" to who they can be as they reach up and rise to become even more than they imagined.
Written by Lindsay Sealey, a seasoned educator, entrepreneur, and author, Made for More offers a fresh perspective in an Instagram style, infused with check-in questions for reflection, images and affirmations, concise and creative ideas and examples, and practical, relevant ways for young women to get moving in designing their days and dreams. Young women will find this book an invaluable resource full of easy-to-digest but constructive ideas that provide structure and certainty in uncertain times.
As women explore seven pivotal areas of growth including authenticity, happiness, confidence, progression, mindfulness, balance, and power, Made for More provides ways to get more of what they really want and to let go of what they no longer need. This book doesn't have all the answers, but instead helps young women find their value and purpose and, ultimately, their way by posing game-changing questions designed to push beyond self-imposed boundaries:
- What if? Dare to imagine possibilities.
- Why bother? Explore what matters most to you.
- Why not? Figure out the obstacles and potential setbacks.
- What now? Create plans and action steps to get started.
- Then what? Step out of a comfort zone and push for more.
Whether they are dealing with personal issues such as self-care, self-acceptance, and relationships, or practical ones like navigating technology, finances, and critical thinking, readers of Made for More will find tools to focus, look forward, and achieve better life balance.
Industry Reviews
"Packed with great step-by-step tools, this book is a joy to read!"
-Dr. Tracy Alloway, psychologist and author of Think Like a Girl
"I adore this book. We all could use a reminder of how courageous and capable we are inherently. Lindsay reminding us to wonder, 'What if I was a little braver and a little less afraid?' or 'What if I said what I really wanted to say and stopped caring about what people think of me?' is an amazing place to start."
-Kate T. Parker, New York Times bestselling author of Strong Is the New Pretty
"Made for More lays a path for girls and young women to discover their authentic selves-already perfect and already whole. Each chapter is woven with inspiring stories and practical exercises to disentangle from the cultural message of 'not enough' and instead, see the beauty and magic of life as it is. This book is like a reliable friend: supportive, warm, and engaging."
