Here's your go-to holiday or birthday gift for the teen in your life. Katie Hurley shares simple, science-backed ideas and activities to help teens build optimism and beat stress. In a mix of inspirational quotes and suggested strategies, shared in easy-to-digest, beautiful-to-look-at snippets, Hurley guides teens to live their best lives, regardless of their circumstances or setbacks. There's a tip for every day of the year, but I found myself reading through several in each sitting. Need to be more subtle in your delivery? Buy yourself a copy and leave it on the coffee table or near the phone chargers. The bright, irresistible yellow cover (in the square shape of an Instagram picture) will definitely encourage people to check out this gem of a daily inspiration book, and the tips won't just work for teens (hint hint).

My girls (8 and 11) have loved reading the excerpt for that day each night before dinner. It has initiated great conversations and provided me with a ton more insight on their thoughts and feelings. And after only a few weeks, I've already seen their attitudes/outlooks become more positive. In our current times, I find that pretty incredible. Highly recommend!

Katie Hurley has written another masterful book that is both inspiring and encouraging, not only to adolescents but to anyone who reads it. Like each of her books, there is much to be absorbed and gleaned. A must read for tweens, teens, and the adults who work with them.
