You Matter: 11 Ways That You Matter (Even When the World Tells You Otherwise)

Self-help begins with self-esteem and recognizing your true worth, despite what anyone else may think.

Just about every message that we receive on a daily basis seems to covertly or overtly tell us that we're not enough or that we don't matter in the grand scheme of things.

Only celebrities matter. Or only those who have amassed great wealth matter. Or only those with a certain background matter. Or only those who meet a certain standard of beauty matter.

But the real truth is that each of us matters equally, no matter how we look, how much money we make, where we live, or how much attention the world gives us. Our souls are what really matters, and each soul is equally valuable.

Women in particular have to do battle with 'you don't matter' messages from the time they are young girls well into their adulthoods. That is why this book is specifically targeted to young women.

If you've ever asked yourself if you matter, this book's answer is a very definitive yes, with 11 reasons why to back it up. Listen to this book whenever you have doubts about your relevance. You matter, even if no one else recognizes that fact and even if the world seems to tell you otherwise. Now, go be great.
