Description
Don’t let harmful dialogues play through your mind; it’s time to flip the script and reclaim your joy. Soon you’ll begin to see life in a brand-new way.
Negative, broken, lie-filled sentences fill your head as you work, play, and go about your life. These scripts are sidelining you, maligning you, harming you.
What if there were another way? What if your life didn’t have to be defined by what others say? Or even by what you say to yourself over and over? What if you knew that beauty and life are yours to be found and you finally danced in the freedom that awaits you?
There is more for you, friend—so much more. You can learn how to silence all the negative scripts so you can hear the One who really matters and live the exuberant, positive life meant for you. In this book, you’ll finally uncover the scripts that have broken you down. The great news is that you are never broken beyond repair. Learn how God gently collects all your broken pieces and puts them back together as you retrain your mind to think differently about your situation, God, and your world.

—Alexandra Hoover, best-selling author of Eyes Up, ministry leader
“Whether we recognize it or not, we are all storytellers. We tell ourselves stories about why people stay and why people leave; about what makes us significant and what keeps us safe in the world. The brilliance of this book is that it calls out the common narratives that are dampening our joy and hindering our growth, and it empowers us to write a new story—a story of truth that leads to peace. If you’re ready to start flipping the script on some unhelpful narratives in your life, this book is for you!”
—Nicole Zasowski, Marriage and Family Therapist, author of What If It’s Wonderful?

If you have ever struggled with negative self-talk or debilitating narratives that paralyze you from moving forward, Brittany's words are a salve to those wounds. She calls out our lies and replaces them with tangible tools of truth."

—Kara-Kae James, Mom Up
"In a time when it is easy to be overwhelmed with all the bad and happiness seems to be a moving target, Brittany offers a better option. With practical steps and God's Truth, she teaches us how to embrace joy and hope."
—Simi John, speaker and author of I Am Not: Break Free from Stereotypes & Become the Woman God Made You to Be
“We all have broken scripts. They hold us back and prevent us from living fully in the truth of who we are in Christ. Brittany beautifully bridges the gap from broken to beautiful and helps us recognize areas where we need to bring our thought lives back into alignment with Scripture. Pick up this book if you want to be guided into a journey of living freer and less hindered by the lies we often believe about ourselves.”
—Rebecca George, author of Do the Thing, host of the Radical Radiance® podcast
“How often do we carry the weight of our shame with us everywhere we go? It continues to weigh us down as we move from relationship to relationship. Brittany does a beautiful job of helping us release shame, doubt, and identities the world has placed on us and run with open arms back into the presence of Jesus, allowing him to lift those burdens off us.”
—Alissa Circle, Founder of Be Together Co, author of (Be) Known
“Brittany provides a real and raw look at her own struggles while beautifully showing the truth from God’s Word that has set her free. It is only when we embrace who God is and what he has done that we begin to walk in the freedom he provides. This book will touch your heart. You will be challenged, comforted, and encouraged.”
—Jeremy Freeman, pastor, speaker, author of #butGod
"Flip the Script is a message for such a time as this! It’s important for upcoming generations to know their worth so they can walk in their purpose. If the devil can keep them feeling like failures, they’ll never be able to walk in victory and true freedom. This book gives biblical and applicable ways to flip the script on the enemy’s tactics and allow God to mold and shine brighter than ever.”
—Andrea P. Bourgeois, author of Just Breathe and Anchor My Soul

Featured Reviews
Flip the Script: Make Your Move from Broken to Brilliant is a fresh take on breaking free from the “negative scripts” that plague the minds of many women, both young and old, in today’s society. Author Brittany Estes presents several areas that women battle with, including failure, comparison, worthiness, loneliness and shame. Her presentation includes examples from her own life.. After exposing each issue Ms. Estes gives the reader practical steps to “flip the script” on negative thought processes. This book is written from a Christian worldview and the tools presented are based on God’s word, helping the reader see herself as God sees her. The most helpful part of the book are the side by side comparisons of a negative thought pattern next to scripture based words that present a new way of thinking.
This book meets the needs of all types of women. The new scripts are good for personal application, but can also be used to build others up. A great book to share with young adult women, giving them a strong foundation as they move out into the adult world.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Flip the Script by Brittany Estes. The tone of the book was very friendly, included many personal experiences, admitted personal mistakes and invited the reader in her life. But she also gave lots of Scripture and advice how to flip the negative thoughts that bombard us from outside or inside and turn them with the help of God's Word. It is written in a easy to read style and is very fresh and personal. Even though I am an older woman, I could glean words of wisdom.
