Book Overview
Tenth Anniversary Edition - featuring a new author's note, "Ten Years Later: What I Understand Now About Courage."
Women are often asked to live inside narrow definitions of who they are allowed to be: motherly or ambitious, compassionate or strong, feminine or powerful, agreeable or difficult. But real women have always been more complex than the categories used to contain them.
In Put On Your Big-Girl Shoes, board-certified clinical health psychologist, author, and nationally recognized speaker Dr. Lori Stevic-Rust explores what it means for women to step into courage, resilience, gratitude, and a more purposeful life. Through deeply personal interviews with women including MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, Cleveland news anchor Stefani Schaefer, and Holocaust survivor Rena Ferber Finder, Dr. Stevic-Rust reveals how women move through fear, self-doubt, grief, trauma, reinvention, and uncertainty without waiting to feel fearless first.
This tenth anniversary edition includes a new author's note reflecting on what a decade has taught Dr. Lori about courage, belonging, witnessing, and becoming real. What began as a book about personal courage has become something larger: a reminder that courage begins inside us, but eventually reaches beyond us. It becomes how we stand in our own lives, and how we stand with one another.
Put On Your Big-Girl Shoes is for every woman who has ever questioned whether she was ready, worthy, strong enough, or allowed to become more fully herself. It is an invitation to stop living by voices that were never yours and to take the next honest step toward a life of meaning, integrity, and purpose.
