In her introduction she writes, “Motivation. Want more of it? Of course you do. Motivation is the not-so-secret sauce to getting closer to what you want. Sure, you can dream and plan and plot, but without motivation to see a goal through, often your wild ambitions can feel stalled—or worse, like they’re nowhere to be found. You need motivation to blow past the roadblocks that arrive in every shape, size, and form.”
In these pages, find the much-needed space to focus your energy, clear up mental clutter, and set yourself up for success. Because isn’t it time you did it for yourself?

In an era of instant gratification, the way we present ourselves on social media can give a false representation of reality. These platforms can lead to a narrow, heavily filtered image of perfection — and users are left comparing their own lives to edited snapshots.
Be You, No Filter is a step-by-step guide for young women who want to get the most out of life by keeping a strong sense of self and balancing their use of social media. In a tell-it-like-it-is discussion that encourages young women to dig deep, live lives of ownership, and maintain their identities and grow into their best selves, Be You, No Filter gives readers the tools they need to build a life they love, with clear goals, unashamed confidence and the skills to overcome doubt.
This book tackles topics such as comparison, external validation, boundaries, body image, sexuality and so much more. Author and speaker Latasha Blackmond offer 10 chapters full of stories, guidance, and interactive journal exercises to inspire you to:
-Be the best version of you, online and in real life
-Identify goals and put them in place to get to the next level
-Create a life that you love, honestly and unapologetically
Written with genuine love, Be You, No Filter is a vulnerable and intimate conversation for young women. Latasha guides her readers through personal stories, unique wisdom and exercises designed to help them develop a true self-image. Her struggles have taught her strength, and with that same fearlessness, she lays herself bare through a journey of self-doubt, empathy, confidence, self-awareness and laughter. By the end of Be You, No Filter, you will gain a better understanding of how easy it is to participate in sabotaging behaviors — and how to break free from them, discover the real you, and love yourself just the way you are.

And who couldn’t use a little more happiness in their life?

45 Ways to Live Like an Italian will inspire you to adopt the sweetness of Italy and begin to notice the small daily details that turn ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences, ultimately making your life richer, more enjoyable, and less stressful.
Focuses on self-care in all facets of your life, including:
-Food
-Time
-Self
-Relationships
