Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. An interactive guide to self-discovery that helps young women tune out outside expectations, find their own voice, and build confidence in who they are and who they want to become. Growing up means navigating a lot of voices telling you who to be. Soul Searching invites young women to turn down the noise, look inward, and discover what matters most to them. Originally written by Sarah Stillman when she was just sixteen, this interactive guide approaches the challenges of adolescence from a uniquely relatable perspective. Through engaging quizzes, thought-provoking exercises, reflection prompts, and practical guidance, Stillman encourages readers to explore their values, strengthen their sense of self, and think more deeply about the choices and influences shaping their lives. From self-image, health, and relationships to media, technology, gender, and the pressures of growing up, Soul Searching creates space for young women to ask meaningful questions about who they are and who they want to become. Rather than offering one definition of confidence or success, it encourages readers to develop their own sense of identity, direction, and personal values. Accessible, interactive, and encouraging, Soul Searching is a guide to looking beyond outside expectations, trusting your own voice, and navigating the journey from adolescence to adulthood with greater confidence and self-awareness. Written when the author was 16 and updated to address the concerns of today's teens, "Soul Searching" brings girl power to the printed page by offering young women a clear path to self-discovery and empowerment. Through fun quizzes, insightful exercises, and provocative statistics, Stillman guides young women through the complex maze between adolescence and adulthood.
