Description
How would your life change if you could show up as your true self?
Do you sometimes feel so stuck in an endless cycle of meeting everyone else’s needs and expectations that you lose sight of your own? You want to give the best of yourself to others. But what happens when people hurt or take advantage of you? What happens when life doesn’t go your way, despite your best efforts?
The Best of You reveals breakthrough strategies to discover your true self, find your voice, set wise limits, and still be a loving person. For over twenty years, Dr. Alison Cook has brought together faith and psychology to help thousands of women reclaim their confidence, find their purpose, and develop the authentic connections they crave. Her unique wisdom will help you answer these tough questions:
- How do I put a stop to painful patterns that keep recurring in my life?
- How do I find my voice and speak up for myself?
- What if other people respond with anger, blame, or a guilt trip?
- How do I trust myself to make wise decisions even in difficult circumstances?
You don’t have to stay stuck, overwhelmed, or defeated. The Best of You gives you the path to the life and relationships that God designed for you to enjoy.

Kim B, Reviewer
Dr. Cook's book The Best of You is an outstanding work of art! The author correlates scripture from the Bible along with scientific studies/facts, to create a symphony of information showing us how we can be our Best Selves! Dr. Cook displays a keen understanding of how we are to reflect the image of God in our daily lives, and how it should be our #1 priority in life to focus on our relationship with God, and then others.
I read this book after reading I Shouldn't Feel this Way and I found that this book gave me a lot of insight into areas in my own life where I need healing and growth to occur. Past hurts can overtake our lives and if we aren't careful, can infiltrate it like a disease. We must put in the daily work to work towards our individual healing, and have compassion and empathy for others as they worked through their own healing journey's, too.
Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson for a review copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
