I’m That Girl

Edgy. Christian. Necessary. Not written as a health, weight, relationship, or “find your happiness” type of book, but is by default.

But first, can we just have a super honest chat and explain ourselves? This is not a cookbook, and perhaps that is throwing you off. What are you forcing on us here sisters…and why?

You know THM as a health and wellness brand. You know us as the sisters who have been cheering women on to become their trimmiest and healthiest selves for almost a decade now since the release of our first book, Trim Healthy Mama.

But we discovered something as time went on.

This eating plan is not the ultimate answer.

No way of eating is.

Yes, THM has helped transform hundreds of thousands of lives. And don’t get us wrong. We believe it will stand the test of time as it leaves no food group out, is sensible, safe, and doable for the long term, and we’re in it for life as so many of you are. But all the information, the helps, the cookbooks, the videos, the app, the member sites, the FB groups…everything we could think up to help has honestly never been enough.

The reason? All the encouragement and all the help in the world cannot bring lasting change if your identity is stuck in an “I’m that girl who eats her emotions" or “I’m just that girl who gets derailed" mindset.

We realized we were only helping so much. There was more: the bigger piece. The piece that actually means the most and does the most. The identity piece. Not just for your eating, but for every aspect of your life, including your relationships.

So the concept of this book—this I’m That Girl thing—took precedence over all the other cookbook ideas we had. We realized we needed it, you needed it (maybe you didn’t even know you needed it). Maybe you don’t even know if you want it. But it’s time.

We pray this book will sink deep down into your soul and be that piece that truly changes everything. For it is about the stuff of your spirit, the you who is about to find out who she really is. And although this is not actually a health or cookbook, we believe it will benefit your health journey more than any practical nutrition advice or any amount of recipes we could drum up.

This is birthed from our own face plants, from our failures and our return after return to miserable thoughts and actions and words. Then, truth emerged, and enlightened and it changed us, and we want to pass it all along. So yeah, we bring scriptures in it, but it is not a devotional. And if you’re not of the same faith as us or any faith at all, there is still so much here for you. Science comes into play, and there’s a bunch of super practical stuff toward the end.

But just a heads up that this thing is choc-full of the ancient scriptural wisdom that transformed our lives. Can’t apologize for that. Our intent is to encourage, but we do want to give fair warning that this whole concept is wrapped up in Biblical wisdom.

It’s time. You’re about to go through a similar metamorphosis. Hang on to your hats. It’s about to go down! Or perhaps up....

End of the book is worth the read itself.

The last few chapters and all of the scripture references are powerful and some thing I plan to go back to and take notes. Thank you parlance rain for your inspiration, and God centered approach to health. Big fan!

Live Changing!

This book is so inspiring, it helps you truly believe you can become the girl you wish to be. Full of encouraging Bible quotes. I’m so grateful to Serene and Pearl for caring about all of us. They truly love us.

Wonderful listen and will be listening again!!

I love the books these ladies put out! so far, it's been cookbooks and the recipes are awesome and healthy. This one wasn't a cookbook, but oh so good!! All the things we tell ourselves and claim of ourselves that isn't necessarily how God wants us to see ourselves. In the beginning of the book, I wondered how they would weave science into it. What they did was brought out several studies, experiments, and things that backed up what was stated through God's word. This is a wonderful book! We're all "that girl"... I highly recommend reading or listening or both! It's awesome and I'll definitely be listening to this again!! ❤️❤️❤️. The sisters are so fun to listen to as a bonus here!!

My go-to audiobook!

I own this book in print but because it is so full of amazing true goodness it’s ebook version is being added to my phone and now the audio too and you betcha I’m going to be listening to it often!

I love this book!

I love this book. I first listened to it on Audible and then bought a paperback copy to keep and to go back to for reference! 💕

Oh, How our minds control our lives.

I learned so much about how to overcome the control my negative thoughts have had on my life.

Scripture

Enjoyed the book very much. Found it to be very encouraging and appreciate their depth of scripture usage.
