Great read! For context I have 5 sons- 3 quite young boys and 2 older sons who both serve in the ADF. I bought 3 copies, 2 of which are for my older sons.
I found Your Strength Within to be a refreshingly straightforward and useful read. It’s clearly written with teenage boys in mind, but the messages are relevant well beyond that age group. The 21 principles are easy to follow, and I appreciated how each one comes with questions to reflect on—it turns the book into more of a conversation than a lecture.
What stood out to me most was the tone. It’s encouraging without being over the top, and it avoids the usual clichés that can make books like this feel out of touch. There’s a strong focus on integrity, personal responsibility, and emotional balance—all framed in a way that feels accessible and real.
It’s also quite a short book, which makes it easy to pick up and re-read. I’d recommend it for any young man navigating questions of identity, confidence, and character—and just as much for parents or mentors who want to understand what healthy guidance can look like today.
