Whole Girl: Live Vibrantly, Love Your Entire Self, and Make Friends with Food

“Approachable and engaging, Radinsky exudes best friend vibes … A useful, accessible self-help guide.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“[Sadie’s] outlooks … are so refreshing and comforting in these troubled times when teens are up against so much terrible coercion to feel as though they aren’t good enough. She’s a true role model.” ―Jameela Jamil, actress (The Good Place), activist, founder of I Weigh

“Whole Girl is an amazing resource for anyone, but it is critical reading for young women looking for healthy ways to navigate their lives, emotions, and our complex food world.” ―Robb Wolf, New York Times bestselling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired to Eat

“Smile!” “Don’t eat too much.” “You’re so bossy.” Society constantly squelches young women, and tells us all the ways that we’re wrong. But we reject these limitations. We are all strong, different―and complex.

In this unique book, teen writer and recipe creator Sadie Radinsky offers practices, tips, and exercises to help young women embrace their whole selves. Each chapter welcomes a different mood (like mad, blue, wild, cozy) to empower all parts of their lives. The book includes:

• Tips and insights for navigating some of young women’s biggest issues today
• 45 delicious gluten-free, Paleo treat recipes
• Well-being practices like getting enough sleep, exercise as self-love, and creating a good relationship with food
• Talks with experts and celebrities who share fresh advice
• Mindful Movements, from yoga to tree-climbing
