Know Your Own Power (Paperback)

You get to decide how your lessons are learned and how your story goes. That's the power you have.

Life can be relentless, challenging and full of curveballs thrown at us at the worst times, but through these times life will open its hands and offer us the gift of finding out just how powerful we are. Dr Radha, a practising GP and media doctor, provides an inspiring toolbox of reflections and advice to help us reframe the bad stuff and difficulties we face, prevent overwhelm, and learn how to step into our power and trust ourselves, so we can overcome - and become more of who we truly are.

Divided into 3 sections - Getting Through, Stepping Up and Moving Forward - Dr Radha takes us through the tough roadmap of life and along all the highs and lows to prove to us that the tools we need to make decisions and implement changes lie within our own hands. We deserve to be happy and we have something beautiful, strong and determined inside of us. We hold the power to get through a crisis, to step up to the challenge and to move forward and change things for the better.

Let Dr Radha guide you on your journey to find balance, create healthy habits and build solid foundations to create the life that you were born to live.
