De: Alex Scott

Narrado por: Alex Scott

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the football cages of East London to broadcasting to millions, the engine powering Alex Scott's remarkable journey has always been her resilience. But thanks to a 'push-through mentality' the world has only ever seen the 'strong' side of Alex Scott. Now Alex is ready to lower the shield. In How (Not) to Be Strong, Alex shares the lessons that have shaped her, from finally confronting the legacy of a tumultuous childhood to tarnished truth behind the gleaming football trophies.

With raw honesty, Alex shows how she's tackled life's challenges and that sometimes the strongest thing you can do is show your most vulnerable side to the world.

Such an Incredible Journey

Loved every minute of this! Such a journey and so many ground breaking moments, a truly wonderful book with many insights into this legend, Alex Scott!

Inspiration and fearless

Amazing read! Alex is 1 of 1. All I can say is wow! What a powerful story and message to not only young women but everyone with a dream and hard work and determination to be the best version of themselves.

Just an amazing story

As a fan of Alex Scott the footballer I thought I knew some things about her but after listening to her book and the pain and joy in which she tells it, turns out I didn’t know much. But as someone who is also pretty closed off I appreciated her story. The way she told it and the way you can just tell she didn’t hold anything back. Can not recommend this book enough!

Amazing

Relatable and interesting life story. Thoroughly enjoyed her story as well as listening to her amazing accent.

Loved it.

A great story about a girl with a dream. Very honest and insightful. Should be an inspiration to anyone who wants to play.
