 Diesel, A Bookstore in Brentwood is very excited to host Katherine Schwarzenegger as she discusses and signs, Rock What You've Got: Secrets to Loving Your Inner and Outer Beauty from Someone Who's Been There and Back, on Saturday, October 2 at 3pm. When your father is the governor of California and your mother spent years in front of television cameras, developing a healthy body image can be a challenge. Yet Katherine Schwarzenegger has done just that. Now a 20-year-old college student, she has come not only to accept but to love her “curvy, powerful, smart, sexy, and happy” self. Here, she helps women young and old recognize their own beauty, both inside and out. It is estimated that 8 million Americans have an eating disorder — 7 million of them women, and more and more of them girls. Everywhere they look, girls are inundated with carefully airbrushed, highly inaccurate images of the female body. In this down-to-earth and reassuring book, Schwarzenegger fights those scary facts by breaking down barriers and myths about body image. Packed with informative data and moving personal anecdotes from Schwarzenegger and other women, Rock What You've Got celebrates the female form, whatever the size.
