"You just don′t understand!"

If adolescent girls agree on one thing, it′s that adults don′t "get" what′s going on in their lives. Friendship drama, self-image, grades, dating, fear of failure—these pressures impose limits. So what can you do? How can you ensure each and every girl lives up to her potential?

"Be the adult who does understand," says Dr. Lisa Hinkelman. In Girls Without Limits, you′ll gain new insight on how to

  • Understand the unique challenges girls face when dealing with social pressure, body image, boy trouble, academics, and career choices
  • Help girls develop skills and competencies to deal with these challenges
  • Empower girls to confront negative societal expectations and make healthy, positive decisions
  • Combining relevant research with revealing real-life stories and action strategies, Girls Without Limits will help you become a positive force in girls′ lives in any capacity: as a teacher, counselor, advisor, or parent.

    "As the national director of a counseling program which impacts over 40,000 students, I will encourage each of my counselors to read Dr. Hinkelman′s book."
    —Tisha Green-Rinker, National Director of Counseling

    "As an educator, a coach, a mentor, and a father, the insights and strategies afforded here provide powerful tools to best support the efforts of the young women with whom I have the rich occasion to work."
    —Gregory Hodges, Director of International Learning
    Trinity College School, Port Hope, ON

    "Thank you, Lisa Hinkelman, for your inspiration, education, and energy on such a powerful subject."
    —Cindy Monroe, CEO of Thirty-One Gifts
