Book Summary
Without proper guidance, pretty little girls can become dysfunctional women, perpetuating a cycle of dysfunction for generations to come. As mothers, our primal desire is to protect our children and give them the best life possible, but how do we raise confident, successful, exceptional women as we ourselves navigate through the bumps and bruises of life? There are no definitive answers, but in this book, Dr. Jillian Whatley shares how she and other women turned some most unfortuante circumstances into life Lessons for our Daughters. As the genesis of her healing and journey towards peace in the midst of a trial, Dr. Jillian includes lessons on love, relationships, domestic violence, courage, self-worth, discernment, authenticity, and so much more. It is a tool to help women help their daughters, nieces, cousins, sister circles, or mentees learn or rediscover lessons that will help them grow as women and light the path to becoming the women God created them to be.
