The Times and Sunday Times Self-Help Book of the Year
Hysterical, selfish, dramatic. These are just a few of the labels women are given if they do not meet society's expectations of what it is to be a good girl. With so much emotional build-up, it's no wonder that our physical health is being affected. To address this issue, learn how you can use your anger to improve your health and wellbeing instead with psychotherapist Jennifer Cox's amazing advice in Women Are Angry. This honest women empowerment book shares how you can use strong negative emotions such as hate and resentment as tools to speak up and demand positive change.
It's natural to be angry. So many women are looking for advice for personal transformation, but so many are missing the bigger picture: it's okay to be upset. Join Jennifer Cox as she explores how repressing our "ugly emotions" can cause us more harm than good, and why expressing them can help us thrive. With practical mental health tools, relatable experiences, and innovative conversations, you will find so much can change by exploring what makes you angry before letting go.
In Women Are Angry, Jennifer Cox provides strategies for overcoming the following effects of sexist and repressive stereotypes to readers at every stage of womanhood:
- Ways baby girls face strict societal norms through clothes, toys, and more.
- How young women are sexualized and criticized for their bodies
- Why motherhood and career expectations can be overwhelming for many female adults
- How doctors and medical professionals often ignore concerns from older women
So if you enjoyed feminist books such as Take Back Your Brain, Stop People Pleasing, or Secret Lives of Royal Women, then you will love Women Are Angry.
