    Why are more American adolescent girls prey to depression, eating disorders, addictions, and suicide attempts than ever before? According to Dr. Mary Pipher, a clinical psychologist who has treated girls for more than twenty years, we live in a look-obsessed, media-saturated, "girl-poisoning" culture. Despite the advances of feminism, escalating levels of sexism and violence - from undervalued intelligence to sexual harassment in elementary school - cause girls to stifle their creative spirit and natural impulses, which, ultimately, destroys their self-esteem. Yet girls often blame themselves or their families for this "problem with no name" instead of looking at the world around them.Here, for the first time, are girls' unmuted voices from the front lines of adolescence, personal and painfully honest. By laying bare their harsh day-to-day reality, Reviving Ophelia issues a call to arms and offers parents compassion, strength, and strategies with which to revive these Ophelias' lost sense of self.  Language: English.

    Mainstream media has led us to believe that the deep state is only as old as the Obama administration. However, it has presented itself in many forms throughout our nation’s history. Both Democrat and Republican presidents alike have been involved in this 240-plus-year-old conspiracy against America. Jeremy Stone has elucidated a clear definition of the origin, evolution, objectives, and the hostile foreign intentions of the deep state. Its agenda is an anti-American one, with socialist/Enlightenment thinkers at Its core. Nefarious foreign interference of our "nation-state" has not come out of the Trump administration, as the left has fostered in its "collusion" narrative. Instead, it has been mounting for centuries as a far-leftist agenda, with the ultimate goal of toppling our country from within. Without a complete understanding of the deep state and its history, we are doomed to fail in attempting to eliminate it. While it is possible to stifle the deep state and its foreign conspiracy against "The State", we must understand what it is, a global-socialist-matrix/new world order, designed to topple governments from within. ungekürzt.

    Margaret Thatcher may famously have been able to make do with five hours a night, but for many people that little amount of sleep can - even in the short term - have serious and damaging side effects. Major disasters have occurred as a result of poor sleep (from the destruction of the Challenger space shuttle to nuclear meltdowns such as Chernobyl and Three Mile Island), but more prevalent effects can include health disorders, the rise of depression and poorer memory retention. For businesses and their employees, the impact can be extremely detrimental - from the negative impact on decision making and communication skills to ways in which the lack of sleep can stifle creativity and innovation. The Business of Sleep provides practical ways of mitigating against or reducing the impact of compromised sleep in organisational environments. Drawing on both seminal and cutting-edge research alongside interviews with notable CEOs and business influencers, The Business of Sleep explains to listeners, in an accessible and conversational way, what the research tells us about how sleep works and the impact that lack of sleep can have on your work and career. ungekürzt.

    After ten years away, Marcie finally ventures back to where she grew up. She isn’t in town for twenty-four hours when she crosses paths with Hook and Striker, the two boys who kept her safe and happy as a young girl. Only they aren’t boys anymore. They are fully grown, muscular, alpha men. Members of the No Prisoners Motorcycle Club. All through her teenage years, Marcie’s heart belonged to Hook. Not that he ever seemed to notice. And it appears that as an adult, not much has changed with regard to her feelings toward the sexy biker. But a bossy, alpha man is not what independent Marcie is looking for. The moment Hook lays eyes on Marcie, it’s as though the last ten years apart never existed. Back when she was off limits, he wanted her, and it doesn’t take long before he realizes he still wants her. Marcie’s changed, though. She’s no longer a frightened teenager in need of a haven. Now she’s a beautiful, confident woman, and a bit too independent. Will Hook be able to convince Marcie a life with him wouldn’t stifle her freedom? Their relationship is tested when Marcie clings to her hard-won life and when an aspect of that life threatens not only their future together but their safety as well. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is a self-help book that outlines seven skills to develop in order to increase efficiency and have more rewarding interpersonal relationships. Living according to the seven habits requires paradigm shifts that allow an individual to become flexible enough to change. One is the shift in associations when considering independence and interdependence. Independence, which is more valued by contemporary personality-driven trends, can cause problematic isolation and stifle cooperation. Interdependence describes a healthier approach that enables teamwork. The seven habits also require an understanding of the difference between production, or results, and production capacity, the processes that generate the results, neither of which can be prioritized at the cost of the other. The first three habits relate to private victories. First, people should restrict their efforts to the things that they can actually influence, and not waste energy on things that cause worry but cannot be directly controlled. Please Note: This is key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book. Inside this Instaread summary of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Overview of the Book Important People Key Takeaways Analysis of Key Takeaways About the Author With Instaread, you can get the key takeaways, summary, and analysis of a book in 15 minutes.
