About this listen

'This book shows there's insecurity in all of us and that it doesn't diminish our power. That, in fact, accepting it is transformative.' - Gina Martin, author of Be the Change

Welcome to the Insecure Girls' Club!

At some point or another, we all feel insecure. Whether it's about our body image, friendships, workplace politics or comparison more generally, it's something we all have in common. But we don't have to let it rule our lives.

A reassuring hug when you're having a bad day, The Insecure Girl's Handbook is for anyone who wants to manage their anxiety better, stop imposter syndrome in its tracks or halt those unwelcome waves of self-doubt.

Offering tips, coping mechanisms and small pearls of wisdom, Olivia Purvis is here to guide you through those feelings that hold you back and empower you to put yourself first and make a change.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

It’s a lovely book

Very positive and light. A lot of good tips and feel good words. However for my taste would be even better with some humour. But still a good read.

For younger listeners in their teen years-20s

The narrator voice was pleasant, but there was more personal stories of a young girl and statistics than actual advice. It could be more useful to a teenage or a young woman in her 20s, but for 30+ who lost confidence due to some external events (multiple cancer in the family, being mobbet at work you cannot quit due to financial obligations, insuline resistance from stress causing rapid mass growth until diagnosed) not so much.

Like having a conversation with a friend

Skipped the chapter on friendships as I feel I'm good in that department but I took something positive from every other chapter. I definitely think when I have bouts of insecurity in future I'll crack open this audio book as a pick me up.

Not for me

I don't want to be too critical, being an insecure person myself I know how crippling criticism can be, but this wasn't for me. I can definitely see it being useful to others but I couldn't quite relate to it. My insecurities run much deeper than what seems to be portrayed by the author. I'm possibly not the right age for this either. But some bits were useful and nice to hear, it just wasn't for me.

Every woman needs to read this

What an inspiring and relevant book. As a young, working, professional female this book is so relatable and helps you realise you aren’t the only one with imposter syndrome! Particularly love the friendships chapter with practical ways of tackling difficult friendships and giving you the confidence to walk away from toxic ones. A must read, thank you for this book!!

Game changer

Absolutely loved this book! It’s a combination of a warm hug of comfort and a bit of a kick up the backside to start believing in yourself. Will definitely be coming back to the take home messages and reminding myself of all the beauty in this book!
