“Shine From Within; a teen girl’s guide to life” is such a wonderful, well rounded book for teens. I work closely with teens and I see it first hand – life and growing up can be tough, but it doesn’t have to be. This book is definitely something I would recommend every teenager read. It gives you tips, advice and courage to truly be confident in who you are!”
“Life-Changing! As a 13-year-old girl, I found that this book really spoke to me and gave me advice that most teenagers girls may not know they need to hear but will definitely be happier after reading this book.
The light-hearted feel of the book makes it feel like your talking to a friend or a really cool Auntie.
I would recommend this for any teenage girl as when I am in difficult situations I find myself remembering what I read in her book and using her advice.
The book is split into 3 sections which if I remember are Shine from within, Shine on the outside and Shine to the world. They cover topics such as values, positivity, happiness, motivation, eating, movement, menstrual cycle and social media and friendship groups. I will definitely be rereading this book and hope to reread it every year throughout the teenager period of my life.
When reading it I felt happy and always came out of it feeling more motivated and positive. Can’t recommend it enough!”
The book is just the beginning.

“Shine from Within is a beautiful book that every teenage girl should read. I have great concerns about the number of girls struggling and not realising that their uniqueness, quirks and differences are what actually makes them so wonderful and special. Amanda shares openly from her own personal experience and provides countless ideas to support teenage girls. Importantly though she does not say that there is only one way to be happy and successful, she wants each girl to be herself and to find her passion from within…..and as far as I am concerned there could not be a more important message.”
