For years, Terri Savelle Foy’s life was average. She had no dreams to pursue. Each passing day was just a repeat of the day before. Finally, with a marriage in trouble and her life falling apart, Terri made a change. She began to pursue God like never before, develop a new routine and discovered the power of having a dream and purpose.

As Terri started to recognize her own dreams and goals, she simply wrote them down and reviewed them consistently. This written vision became a road map to drive her life. As a result, those dreams are now a reality.

Terri has become the CEO of an international Christian ministry. She is an author, a conference speaker, and a success coach to hundreds of thousands of people all over the world. Her best-selling books Make Your Dreams Bigger than Your Memories, and Imagine Big have helped people discover how to overcome the hurts of the past and see the possibilities of a limitless future. Her weekly podcast is a lifeline of hope and inspiration to people around the world.

Terri Savelle Foy is a cheerleader of dreams and is convinced that “if you can dream it, God can do it.” She is known across the globe as a world-class motivator of hope and success through her transparent and humorous teaching style. Terri’s unique ability to communicate success strategies in a simple and practical way has awakened the dreams of the young and old alike.

Terri shares from personal experience the biblical concepts of using the gift of the imagination to reach full potential in Jesus Christ. From stay-at-home moms to business executives, Terri consistently inspires others to go after their dreams. With step-by-step instruction and the inspiration to follow through, people are fueled with the passion to complete their life assignment down to the last detail (see John 17:4).

Terri and her husband, Rodney Foy, have been married since 1991, and are the parents of a beautiful redheaded daughter, Kassidi Cherie. They live near Dallas, Texas. For more information about Terri, go to www.terri.com.

I thought I had read plenty of books about positive confession, but I haven't! This book was so good and practical. Not condemning but uplifting. Full of inspirational stories to keep you motivated! Thank you Terri for another incredible book!

Simple, easy read, but if you take it to heart it is probably one of the top books I would recommend. Extremely practical.

I'm not sure why the author has named this book as Pep Talk. Because this book have very little information about that and a lot of information about faith in God. Infact while reading i was confused if I'm reading a self help or a spiritual book. All example, quotes and references in this book are given in context of god. Not that i am an atheist and also i believe that having faith is equally important, but is it the only thing? Don't think so.

The book was a good start when author started with importance of daily positive talks but as it progressed all I could read in book was about faith in God. This is my second book from the same author, though the first one have similar writing style but this one was heavily influenced and I won't be reading any other books from her.

I liked how effortless reading this book was. There are a ton of affirmations in it, which makes it a useful tool for what you get, and also there is the talking part of the book which was delightful. I recommend this because it is a fast read (less than 200 pages) and effective. I like how there are different sections of focus and how her voice feels always so encouraging and fun at the same time! Happy to have read this!

Since I was a little girl and was able to open my mouth to speak, my mom has always taught me the power of my words. Needless to say, when I heard of this book I knew I needed to read it.

Terri Savelle has a charming and light-hearted way of bringing the truth to light, and she does it easily in Pep Talk by bringing the truth of the power of words to light. Through scripture and personal stories, Terri explains and breaks down how with words your life can be made anew and can be the one you’ve dreamed of.

This book does a great job of reminding me that constantly speaking life into your world can indeed change your world. As I read, highlighted, bookmarked, and took notes, I became encouraged by Terri’s words. From chapter one until the end, I was filled with the strength to not only act out the advice given in the book, but I was filled with belief and faith.

Belief/faith is the foundation of Terri’s Pep Talk. Through the book, she reiterates how speaking positive words is great, but she also emphasizes how faith in what you confess is the key to moving mountains. You can say the scriptures and declarations as loud as you want, but when you apply faith, that’s when it becomes a successful, life changing Pep Talk.

omg this book changed not only my life but my mother's life as well. she completely changed her daily routine, she changed her goals (added them, really), she changed her mindset, she says yes. because of the changes and purpose that she wants to apply in our home, I literally got to go to the miami open and see the legend of tennis play (Djokovic), I got to see the number one woman in the world, Sabalenka, I got to watch my favorite sport courtside. my dreams came true and the future literally all seems so achievable and so in my reach. doing the things I deemed impossible, having my insta story viewed by the one and only carlos alcaraz on his birthday, (may 5) like MY dreams are becoming reality all because I proclaim it with faith. DUDE this book is IT.

Psp Talk that came alive

The affirmations and pep talk in this book were relevant for each area of life. I would recommend you follow one of the stories and actually record yourself reading some of the affirmations Terri has listed. It's powerful to read AND listen to these affirmations until you believe it. Another great book by Terri!!

Wish I had it sooner

Just discovered Terri Foy and feel totally revitalized through her teachings. The reason for 4stars is only because I don't prefer the version of scripture she uses, but the book is great!

Easy read and good reminder of the power of words from our mouth

Positive words, positive mind will always renew our daily energy and help work towards our goals. An easy book for everyone. But I personally prefer the other book Dream it, Pin it, live it.

Amazing!

Terri did an amazing job of explaining how to speak your dreams aloud and make them work as affirmations! I love the story about the man who listened to them while shaving every day and lost the weight.

Standing on the Word of the Lord

Focuses on getting a good understanding of the importance of what we speak out of our mouths. Encourages me to bookmark the verses in this book to speak out and trust the Lord for where I am and where I’m going
