I'm Courtney Macavinta, co-author of the best-selling book for teen girls RESPECT and founder of Respect Rx, which is devoted to empowering girls, women and their advocates to boost self-respect, sisterhood, and social change in their lives (and our world). We make the respect connection through books, blogs, coaching, consulting, media appearances, nationwide special event and speaking programs and partnerships.

The Getting REAL Tour

  • 92% of teen girls would like to change something about the way they look
  • 86% of the approx. 10 million American girls and women who suffer from an eating disorder report the onset of their condition by age 20
  • Just 2% of women think they’re beautiful
  • More than 50% of women between ages 18-25 would rather be run over by a truck than be “fat”

Girls and women: We don’t have to let unrealistic ideals diminish our power. We can get REAL instead.

Check out the Getting REAL workshops for girls, college women and moms. And join our Getting REAL new social network.
Colleges: Book this interactive presentation today in conjunction with your campus’ National Eating Disorders Awareness Week or V-Day programs in 2008.
