She became obsessed with exercising and dieting, but no matter how much weight she lost, it was never enough. She spent the next few years trying to heal her eating habits, learning about self-love, and finally making peace with her body. My Perfectly Imperfect Body is her story and one she shares with many survivors of a thin-obsessed media. She hopes her gentle comics provide a safe space to rest on whichever healing journey you find yourself on as you read.

Successful Failure: Lessons Learned Flat on My Face
Being successful is no laughing matter . . . unless the road there is littered with flops, fool's errands, fizzles, and straight-up failures--from the New York Times bestselling co-author of Marriage Be Hard. "I'm so happy Kev failed, because these stories will set so many free from perfection!"--Tabitha Brown, bestselling author of Feeding the Soul Kevin Fredericks (aka KevOnStage) is a viral stand-up star, an NAACP Image Award-winning comedian, the founder of KevOnStage Studios, a New York Times bestselling author, and a superstar on social media. But his path to success wasn't always smooth. As a kid, Kevin noticed something useful: If he made people laugh, the grown-ups would let him stay up late. In church plays, his commitment to the role of Goliath led to a busted lip, and the audience couldn't get enough. He dreamed of becoming a performer, of finding that big break that would launch him into the bright lights of pop culture fame. But as he soon found, the road to the life we want is longer, weirder, more embarrassing, and more entertaining than we think it will be. In Successful Failure, the comedian recounts hilarious stories and sincere insight from his adventures (and misadventures) trying to make it in life. From performing under an alias to avoid getting fired from his suit-and-tie day job to breaking a chair onstage and quitting stand-up for six months, from pooping his pants on a bus next to his future wife to starting a clothing line called Dreams Don't Die (they sure do if the merch doesn't sell), Kevin reminds readers that while we might not be The Rock, Warren Buffett, or Kevin Hart, we're all out here trying, and that's okay. Laugh-out-loud in one moment and perceptive in the next, Successful Failure is a wild ride from one of America's funniest comics and a sendup of our ideals around hustle culture and success.

Still Bobbi
"She didn't just change how people wear makeup--she changed how they see themselves" (Charlamagne tha God, for the Time 100 Most Influential People list). Bobbi Brown, beauty mogul and visionary, opens up in her first memoir about the true story: reinvention, resilience, and the power of staying real. Bobbi Brown is a trailblazer in the beauty industry. A New York Times bestselling author of nine makeup tutorial books to date, she is the founder of both her namesake beauty brand, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, and her four-year-old clean beauty brand, Jones Road. Recognized as one of Fortune's Most Powerful Women in 2021, included in Forbes's "50 Over 50" list of Most Influential Women in 2022, and honored with the Glamour Woman of the Year Award, Bobbi's career has been nothing short of groundbreaking. In Still Bobbi, she shares her personal journey, including the integral relationships that inspired and emboldened her from a young age to pursue her creative vision despite numerous challenges--offering a heartfelt and inspiring memoir guaranteed to captivate readers of all ages. In 1980, Bobbi Brown had a wild idea: real faces are beautiful. When makeup trends were about covering, contouring, and transforming, Bobbi blazed her own path, using makeup that accentuated a woman's natural beauty. In the process, she revolutionized the makeup industry. Bobbi's philosophy is part of who she is, and it's reflected in the way she lives her life. Real is better than fake. Simple is better than complicated. Family comes first. When real life throws you obstacles, maneuver and just figure it out. This hard-earned, deceptively simple wisdom is at the core of her new book, Still Bobbi. Bobbi has authored many makeup books but has never written about her life...until now. Bobbi shares her story--a seemingly typical suburban girl who thrived socially but struggled academically and had a wonderfully complicated and glamorous mother. Bobbi navigated her childhood and discovered and refined her own view of beauty. She talked her way into New York's beauty and fashion scene in the 1980s, found the love of her life, built her namesake brand into a billion-dollar worldwide business, sold control of her namesake brand, only to build another juggernaut beauty brand--all while raising a family and remaining true to herself. In sharing a lifetime of intimate stories, hard-won practical wisdom, tips, and business savvy, Bobbi's transformational memoir urges readers to embrace their own potential and pursue their dreams with confidence and clarity of purpose.

Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope, and Yourself on the Caregiving Path
From Emma Heming Willis, wife of Bruce Willis, a deeply personal and richly compassionate supportive guide that helps caregivers care for themselves while they navigate a loved one's dementia. AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER The day Emma Heming Willis' husband, Bruce Willis, was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), all they were given was a pamphlet and told to check back in a few months. With no hope or direction, Emma walked out of that doctor's appointment frozen with fear, confusion and a sense that her world had just fallen apart. In fact, it had. Bruce and Emma had their story written, their future mapped out. Yet all those dreams crumbled with that diagnosis, and Emma felt alone and more isolated than ever. How would she care for her husband while parenting their young daughters? At that devastating time, Emma just wanted someone who'd been through it to tell her, "This feels terrible right now. Your life is in shambles. But it's going to be okay. Here are some things to think about and put in place so you cannot just survive but thrive." With The Unexpected Journey, Emma has written the book she wishes she'd been handed on the day of Bruce's diagnosis: a supportive guide to navigating the complicated, heartbreaking, and transformative experience that is caregiving for your loved one. Weaving her personal journey as a care partner with the latest research and insights from the world's top dementia, caregiving, and integrative experts she offers the guidance and wisdom caregivers everywhere so desperately need to hear, including: A diagnosis isn't just a label, it's a starting point. It helps you better understand your person's behavior and respond with more clarity and compassion. Taking care of yourself is not optional; it's mandatory. It will make you a better care partner. It's not selfish, it's self-preserving. You don't have a choice about being on the dementia caregiving journey. But you do have a choice in terms of how you approach it and reframe it. Caregivers are human so you aren't always going to be patient and selfless. You have challenges and struggle with conflicting emotions and that's okay. Ultimately, The Unexpected Journey shows you how to care for yourself while doing one of the hardest, most heartbreaking jobs in the world. Because if you don't take care of yourself, you are not going to be able to look after anyone else--especially your loved one with dementia. For anyone caregiving for a loved one with any form of dementia, and even for those caregiving for other conditions, The Unexpected Journey shows that you are not alone. As Emma writes, "I know that no two caregiving journeys are the same, but we are connected by the same unchosen thread. It's not an easy path for you, your loved one or your family. But I'm here to let you know that you are not alone, and, in time, you will find your footing, and a way forward."

Loveable: A Memoir: One Woman's Path from Good to Free
Good wives don't fall in love with other men. That's what Amber Rae told herself when, in the midst of building a home with her husband in Mexico, she met the man she knew she was meant to spend the rest of her life with. Maybe in another life, she thought. But the truth was, for years, she smiled and strived her way through a sexless and lonely marriage, never admitting her unhappiness to anyone--not even to herself. She thought that if she just tried harder, everything would fall into place. But as the voice inside her grew louder, she realized she had two choices: keep pretending everything's fine and her needs don't matter, or confront everything she thought she knew about love, loyalty, and her own limits. LOVEABLE is a raw and intimate journey of a woman breaking free from the roles that confined her. This memoir isn't about trading one life or one man for another--it's about the painful, beautiful process of coming home to oneself. And this isn't just Amber's story―it's a rallying cry to stop being good so you can start being free.

Psychotherapist Joe Nucci (@JoeNucciTherapy) shares truth and research as he discusses common mental health myths and replaces them with no-nonsense truths and accessible guidance for real healing.The popularization of mental health content on social media has led to an epidemic of mental health misinformation. In Psychobabble, licensed psychotherapist Joe Nucci argues that too many of us are self-diagnosing, improperly deploying therapy-speak, and even coaching others to engage in harmful activities under the guise of "self-care."Nucci dismantles 40 popular misconceptions, such as: Everyone needs to go to therapy.Your feelings are credible.People gaslight you when they disagree.Mindfulness is good for everyone.Everyone has trauma.The reason you can't focus is ADHD.This dangerous misinformation encourages well-meaning individuals to make consequential life decisions based on false beliefs, half-truths, and the advice of unlicensed armchair experts. It is time for a professional to call this out. Nucci replaces these myths with liberating truths that can help readers avoid misinformation, navigate important philosophical debates, and better maneuver their own mental health journeys. He shares client examples and evidence-based psychological theory, and draws from reputable studies and research.TikTok influencers and "life coaches" create viral videos telling people to cut off their problematic parents, and are cheered on by millions of followers. Recent divorcees proudly declare on Instagram that they are finally healing from their "narcissistic" ex-partner, even though you get the sense they can't actually define that word. Teenage "mental health advocates" lament the struggles of living with autism, but then subtly add that their condition is "self-diagnosed." It is time for a professional to call out the misinformation and absurdity.Psychobabble is a must-read book for anyone who values mental health and cares about others.

Resurface: A Guide to Navigating Life's Biggest Transitions
"An illuminating and inspiring read for anyone navigating change." --Adam Grant "Resurface goes beyond the simple answers and, instead, offers honest space to navigate life's transitions." --Morgan Harper Nichols A toolkit for navigating all of life's transitions, from a former Olympic diver Life is nothing other than a series of transitions. Whether you're graduating from college and trying to decide what's next, coping with divorce, putting the pieces back together after a death or a diagnosis, moving to a new city, or thinking about leaving one career path for another, these transitions--planned or unplanned--are an inevitable part of life. But as inevitable as transitions are, they can still be intimidating. You're venturing from the familiar into the unfamiliar, and that journey is often murky and filled with moments of uncertainty, grief, and self-doubt. No one knows this better than Cassidy Krug, who in 2012 was an Olympic diver with a shot at the bronze medal. A mistake on her last dive landed her in seventh place, and her lifelong athletic career came to an unremarkable end. After dedicating her life to a single passion and pursuit--diving--Cassidy had to figure out what to do next. In Resurface, she connects with dozens of others who have experienced major life transitions, discovering fascinating common ground between a Buddhist monk and a queer sex therapist; a recent divorcee and a quadriplegic skydiver; a record-setting marathoner and a salon-owner navigating menopause. Weaving together her own story with research and interviews with transitioners from all walks of life, Cassidy offers a blueprint for anyone who is going through or considering a major life change. In order to navigate change with grace, you must: ● Recognize the end● Honor grief● Embrace the murk● Ask for help and seek community● Connect your dots● Leave your baggage● Know when to fold 'em● Redefine success● Build your world● Start over No matter what transition you may be experiencing, Resurface will give you the tools to navigate the tough parts more easily, and the good parts more joyfully.
