Own Your BS

Why is it that, even though there are thousands of Self-Help books available to help women develop confidence in themselves and their dreams, women are more stuck in Negative Head Talk than ever before?

Because most Self-Help books are written with a logical, male point of view in mind. Own Your BS: The No-Nonsense guide to addressing your Female Head Talk explores the differences between men and women and, without the fluff and rah-rah of ‘just visualise’ and ‘think positive’, provides readers with practical and powerful strategies and tools to get a grip on stories
like “I’m not good enough”, “I’ll fail”, “she is better than me” and “I should….” by understanding what drives these stories in the first place.

Complete with downloadable templates, Own Your BS will give you not just the insight, but the strategies to take back your Personal Power and rephrase the Head Talk to serve you and influence your success.

“Bree dives in where many good women fear to tred … the fact that men and women are wired differently in their brains, which produces different thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. And most, not ALL, of the me, women try to fit themselves into the generic human mould, which, is the default masculine mode. I found this book to be an excellent HANDS-ON approach for women, rather than just background theory.
And gotta love the title! Such quintessennal Aussie terminology!”

– Marlowe Aster, PhD

“This book is extremely eye-opening into how the female brain works. I literally used Bree’s advice today during a panic attack and it helped
straight away. Highly recommend this book to any female who wants to take back their power and be the best version of themselves”

– A.C.

Gratitude Prompts

Gratitude Prompts brings a unique approach to developing a new practice or deepening an existing one. This book takes away the question of ‘what unique things can I be grateful for today?’ thus making the exploration of the rich world of gratitude by transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.

The book is designed to be opened at a random page, read the topic and do an activity. It’s that easy. Some topics may remain unseen, whilst others become firm favourites. It’s all about what you require at the time.

There are more than 60 wide ranging topics. Some may not be typical ones, for example, there’s debt, grief and death. There are also ones on friends, family, nature along with kindness, generosity and compassion. Each topic starts with a quote before providing commentary which aims to provoke reflection. Each topic ends with three suggested actions that bring the topic alive for the reader. There
are lots of opportunities for kids to be involved in too.

About the Author

Karen Purves MA is a coach, facilitator and mentor to women who want to be in charge of their life. Karen first met gratitude as a destitute, unhappy, single Mum. For the past 20 years, gratitude and appreciation have been constant companions, even in the toughest times. This book is the result of her study of positive psychology and practicing gratitude.
