She offers not just advice, but scripts and mantras for changing our parenting so we see the children in front of us: kids desperate to be seen and heard for who they are. This book is a guide, a practical and accessible manual any parent can follow.--<b>Jessica Lahey, author of The Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed</b><br><br>In a world where stress and burnout make it so hard for parents and children to meaningfully connect, Live Love Now is a ray of hope. It's a book that will empower readers to adapt to the new realities of parenting and build strong relationships with the young people in their lives where they model what they want to teach them.--<b>Arianna Huffington, founder & CEO, Thrive Global</b><br><br>In Live Love Now, Rachel Macy Stafford does what she does best: she lovingly encourages, guides, and challenges us to be better than we've been.

It's a must read for parents of kids of all ages.--<b>Dr. Shefali Tsabary, clinical psychologist and New York Times bestselling author</b><br><br>Live Love Now is a gorgeous manual for how to rescue yourself, your family, and your kid from the malaise of modern parenting.

This is a must-read for all parents.--<b>Julie Lythcott-Haims, New York Times bestselling author of How to Raise an Adult</b><br><br>Loving our kids well as they grow up has more to do with who they are than with who we want them to be. While many parenting books counsel us on how we can get our kids to meet our expectations, Rachel Macy Stafford asks us to take a different approach--to see our kids for who they were created to be, lay down our expectations of who we think they need to become, and come alongside them as guides and companions on their unique journeys.--<b>Amy McCready, founder of PositiveParentingSolutions.com and the author of The "Me, Me, Me" Epidemic: A Step-by-Step Guide to Raising Capable, Grateful Kids in an Over-Entitled World</b><br><br>Rachel Macy Stafford has an incredible capacity to turn ordinary words into soul-fulfilling inspiration, and Live Love Now is a gift to parents of teens everywhere. Stafford leans in to her own vulnerability to reach her readers right where they are: in the thick of parenting teens through what can only be described as a time of high stress and anxiety. Stafford reminds us that simple changes often yield positive results. Her focus on acceptance, encouragement, and gentle guidance reminds parents to step away from judgment (their own and those of others) and meet their teens where they are in their journey through adolescence. This is a book I will recommend over and over again.--<b>Katie Hurley, LCSW, author of No More Mean Girls and The Happy Kid Handbook</b><br><br>Rachel Macy Stafford is unmatched in finding the beauty within the ordinary moments in life.

If you hope to have an enduring, life-giving relationship with the young people in your life, read this book. You'll be grateful you did--and so will the kids you love.--<b>John O'Leary, host of the Live Inspired podcast and bestselling author of On Fire</b><br><br>Rachel's transparent and practical insights inspire us to do just what the title promises: LIVE LOVE NOW. Reading it reminded me, yet again, why hers is one of the most important voices of our day.--<b>Joshua Becker, founder, Becoming Minimalist</b><br><br>Through heartfelt and authentic life experiences, Rachel Macy Stafford shows that adults and children can learn and grow together, and that perfection is not required to raise healthy and capable young adults. Live Love Now will help you become a truth-teller, encourager, and guide to children, helping them find meaning and purpose for themselves instead of trying to fit into roles society tries to nudge them into. In this book, Rachel shares inspiring stories, strategies that value your own experiences, and ways to apply new concepts to the shifting challenges of raising and educating children in a high-pressured world.--<b>Marilyn Price-Mitchell, PhD, developmental psychologist, author of Tomorrow's Change Makers, and founder, Roots of Action</b><br><br>We all want to raise confident, resilient teens, but in today's world, it isn't easy. This book has answers, offering guidance to help parents be the anchors and touchstones our teens need to make their way through the sometimes-stormy seas of adolescence. I hope every parent keeps a copy on their nightstand.--<b>Susan Stiffelman, MFT, author of Parenting with Presence and Parenting without Power Struggles</b><br>
