If you’re anything like me as a Christian conservative young woman, you definitely admire Allie Beth Stuckey. Starting with her blog, The Conservative Millennial, and continuing today with her inspiring podcast, Relatable, Allie has inspired countless young women across America with quick wit and biblical truth. Her new (and first!) book, You’re Not Enough (And That’s Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love is no exception.
As young Americans, we are constantly bombarded by the increasingly popular and fallacious culture of self-love. Our entire society has become centered around the alleged fact that we are enough. We are frequently told we are perfect just the way we are, and simply loving ourselves more will serve as the solution to all of our problems. Despite this amplifying call, young Americans in particular are facing more anxiety, depression, and suicide ideation than any generation before us. We aren’t satisfied, no matter how much we love ourselves, how much we succeed at work, or how many cute dates we go on.
Knowing it would be unpopular, Allie courageously tells us the truth: we, as human beings, aren’t enough. And that’s okay.
You’re Not Enough (And That’s Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love breaks down the cultural narratives we buy into when it comes to self-love and replaces lies with truth in an unprecedented way.
