Health Coach, Writer Encourages Women and Girls to Embrace Their Perceived Imperfections and Practice Self-Love in Inspiring New Book
COLUMBUS, Ohio (PRWEB) February 11, 2019 -- Holistic health and lifestyle coach and author Simi Botic has released her inspiring, female-focused guide to letting go of the limiting thoughts and beliefs that often keep women and girls of all ages tethered to unattainable visions of how they should look, act and be.
In “Letting Go of Leo: How I Broke Up with Perfection,” Botic shares her personal story of chasing perfection in the form of restrictive and binge eating, orthorexia and over-exercising and how she overcame those obstacles to live a healthy and fulfilled life.
“I struggled for most of my life with the belief that being ‘perfect’ would make me more lovable. This belief led to struggles with food, exercise, body image, control, happiness, depression, and anxiety,” Botic said. “It’s my hope that this book will help each person who reads it find a bit of humor in their own journey and see the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Twining Botic’s personal struggles and stories with humorous and relatable reflections on her journey, “Letting Go of Leo” reaches out to all women and girls who find themselves deep in their own perfectionism struggles to help them feel less alone and show them how to celebrate their authenticity and feel at home in their natural bodies.
“I read this book in nearly one sitting, flying home from a work trip,” a reader wrote in a five-star review of Botic’s book on Amazon. “… So many times, I found myself whispering, ‘I thought I was the only one,’ finding such community and fellowship with the author and her story. This book is so good, so worth the read, and more than I could have ever hoped.”
Botic’s book gets to the core of important issues like body image, disordered eating, anxiety and depression, ultimately encouraging readers to come as they are and demonstrating to them that they are already enough.
