For many girls it starts early. The desire to be perfect. The need for approval. The longing for acceptance and being liked by a lot of people.
Thanks to social media, these desires now get channeled online. Girls can curate an image, build a following, and test-drive identities until they find one that draws attention and applause. But in this quest to be liked and noticed, girls often fail to feel loved and known. The result is a generation of girls who hunger for real and authentic relationships, yet are unclear on how to create them.
From popular blogger and bestselling author Kari Kampakis comes a powerful book for girls in the digital age. Designed to empower teens and tweens through the Christian faith, Liked: Whose Approval Are You Living For? is packed with godly wisdom and practical advice related to identity, friendships, social media, and a relationship with God.

Now an ECPA Best Seller‚ÄîKari Kampakis’s¬†Love Her Well¬†gives moms ten practical tips for how to build strong and lasting relationships with their daughters.

For many women, having a baby girl is a dream come true. But as girls grow up, the narrative of innocence and joy changes to one of dread as moms are told, “Just wait until she’s a teenager!” and handed a disheartening and too-often-true script about a daughter’s teenage season of life.

Author, blogger, and mom to four daughters Kari Kampakis thinks it’s time to change the narrative and mind-set that leads moms to parent teen girls with a spirit of defeat instead of strength. Love Her Well isn’t a guide to help mothers “fix” their daughters or make them behave. It’s about a mom’s journey, doing the heart-work necessary to love a teenager while still being a steady, supportive parent. Kari offers wisdom about how moms can:

• Choose their words and timing carefully.
• Listen and empathize with her teen’s world.
• See the good, and love her for who she is.
• Take care of themselves and find a support system in the process.

By working on the foundation, habits, and dynamics of the relationship; mothers can connect with their teen daughters and earn a voice in their lives that allows moms to offer guidance, love, wisdom, and emotional support.

Kari gives mothers hope, wisdom, and a reminder that all things are possible through God, who is the source of the guidance and clarity they need in order to grow strong relationships with their daughters at every age—especially during the critical teen years.
