Sandra Coates was once longing to be someone different, more focused on comparing or competing with others rather than fully accepting herself. But when God stepped in and asked if she wanted to see the real Sandra, everything shifted. What had once seemed impossiblefulfilling her desires for confidence, a positive body image, and an end to her cravingsbecame her reality.
By sharing her candid personal story about how she discovered her true identity, she invites others to break free of who they think they have to be, reject the worldly pressures to fit in or be perfect, open themselves to receive breathtaking love and acceptance from their Creator, and walk confidently in their God-given beauty, identity, and purpose.
This in-depth and transparent examination of beauty is written to help women and girls uncover bold truths about themselves and the unique beauty already within them. Included in the book are reflection/discussion questions and exercises designed for both an individual reader or a small group.
