People Magazine's Best New Books Self-Help Pick (July 2022)"Be the One You Need is about looking after yourself first. If we run ourselves ragged, we're no use to anyone. It's not something anyone should feel guilty about--Sophia Nelson gets that." --Katty Kay, former BBC news anchor, journalist NBC News, and bestselling author of The Confidence Code"Be the One You Need is not a call to be selfish, it's about practicing self-love as you ask yourself what you want, what you need, and how you feel--it's about putting your own self-care first." --Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino, author of The Change Guidebook and CEO of The Best Ever You Network"Be the One You Need is the much-needed self-care guide needed to survive the COVID era. In this book, Nelson gives us a roadmap to create healthier lifestyle choices that will take us through the cur- rent pandemic and shows us how to do the hard work that heals our hurts--and allows us to soar." --Anushay Hossain, author, The Pain Gap: How Sexism and Racism in Healthcare Kill Women"All too often, women have a hard time putting themselves first. We are so busy giving and doing for others that we feel guilty about taking time for ourselves. In Be the One You Need, Sophia lays out a road- map for prioritizing ourselves and shows us that meaningful self-care, regardless of your age, is about being able to help yourself so you can truly love and help others." --Mika Brzezinski, bestselling author, founder of Know Your Value, co-host of Morning Joe"As a leader, I cannot recommend Be the One You Need more highly. Sophia has used a combination of her personal experiences to give us 21 powerful life lessons. Every corporate and industry leader, educator, and organization looking to create healthier work environments needs to read this book. She gives us a pathway to deeper self-care habits that last a lifetime and inspires us to take our own personal power back." --Col. Nicole Malachowski (USAF, Ret.), speaker and first female pilot to fly with the Thunderbirds"As women, we often put ourselves last. As Black women, we always put ourselves last.

Dr. Bernice A. King, CEO, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change"I commend Sophia Nelson on her transparency. It takes real courage to admit we don't care for ourselves with the same love as we care for others. I found Be the One You Need to be a powerful and soul-stirring book that carefully and thoughtfully helps us learn how to service ourselves so we can be of even better service to others. This is a must-read for everyone, especially those looking to live a life of true freedom and greater peace." --DeVon Franklin, New York Times bestselling author and Hollywood producer"We all need self-care, men and women alike.
