Book Description

Happy Woman Happy World, The Foolproof Fix to go from Overwhelmed to Awesome Chelette, a trainer, coach and speaker imparts her proprietary strategies that can take any woman from being "overwhelmed to awesome." She deduces that women can have it all, just not at the same time. Instead she offers her original concept of ego-RHYTHM(r), which allows women to delve into defining what is most important during their various stages of life, then teaches them how to set a Main Focus, re-structure their lives for better Work-Life Balance and put an end to the "crazy-making" lifestyle. In addition, she discusses the struggles of today's women in the workplace and how they sabotage career advancement, while addressing the culture of "mean girls," the distasteful behavior that women perpetrate on each other which ultimately undercuts self-confidence and success. She introduces her philosophy of The Women's Code(r) - which is nothing less than a completely new awareness of about how women relate to each other, and a new paradigm for teaching women how to find and give support and collaborate to truly achieve happiness with their lives

Book Description

This “essential read” (Gretchen Rubin) from the author of Savvy Auntie tells the funny, sexy, and sometimes heartbreaking stories of today's well-educated, successful women who expected love, marriage, and children, but instead find themselves in the “Otherhood” as their fertile years wane. More American women are childless than ever before—nearly half those of childbearing age don’t have children. While our society often assumes these women are “childfree by choice,” that’s not always true. In reality, many of them expected to marry and have children, but it simply hasn’t happened. Wrongly judged as picky or career-obsessed, they make up the “Otherhood,” a growing demographic that has gone without definition or visibility until now. In Otherhood, author Melanie Notkin reveals her own story as well as the honest, poignant, humorous, and occasionally heartbreaking stories of women in her generation—women who expected love, marriage, and parenthood, but instead found themselves facing a different reality. She addresses the reasons for this shift, the social and emotional impact it has on our collective culture, and how the “new normal” will affect our society in the decades to come. Notkin aims to reassure women that they are not alone and encourages them to find happiness and fulfillment no matter what the future holds. A groundbreaking exploration of an essential contemporary issue, Otherhood inspires thought-provoking conversation and gets at the heart of our cultural assumptions about single women and childlessness.

Book Description

Our culture values striving, purpose, achievement, and accumulation. This book asks us to get sidetracked along the way. It praises aimlessness as a source of creativity and an alternative to the demand for linear, efficient, instrumentalist thinking and productivity. Aimlessness collects ideas and stories from around the world that value indirection, wandering, getting lost, waiting, meandering, lingering, sitting, laying about, daydreaming, and other ways to be open to possibility, chaos, and multiplicity. Tom Lutz considers aimlessness as a fundamental human proclivity and method, one that has been vilified by modern industrial societies but celebrated by many religious traditions, philosophers, writers, and artists. He roams a circular path that snakes and forks down sideroads, traipsing through modernist art, nomadic life, slacker comedies, drugs, travel, nirvana, and oblivion. The book is structured as a recursive, disjunctive spiral of short sections, a collage of narrative, anecdotal, analytic, and lyrical passages—intended to be read aimlessly, to wind up someplace unexpected.
