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."

Psychobabble: Viral Mental Health Myths & the Truths to Set You 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.

Radical Tenderness: The Value of Vulnerability in an Often Unkind World
An inspiring manifesto from philanthropist and advocate Gisele Barreto Fetterman that explores her surprising source of power and strength--vulnerability--and how we can all harness it to effect meaningful change. As a society, we shy away from public expressions of vulnerability, mistaking it for weakness or a lack of grit. To even talk about crying, much less shed tears publicly, is seen as shameful or cringeworthy. But for Gisele Barreto Fetterman, accessibility advocate and wife of Senator John Fetterman, showing strong emotions has always been her default--at events, during speeches, in her car or even at the grocery store. Friends and family warned Gisele that the world would eat her alive if she didn't toughen up. But over the years Fetterman came to a realization: her emotional tenderness was not her downfall, but her strength--one that could be incorporated into her leadership style to show a different way to create true social and cultural change. In Radical Tenderness, Gisele Barreto Fetterman courageously shares her story of power through vulnerability--from her childhood survival years as a Brazilian-American undocumented immigrant, to the prejudice she experienced in corporate and political settings, to her hardships and resilience stepping into her husband's role when he suffered a stroke. Through it all Gisele learned that leading with tenderness--whether at the office, as a boss, or as a human being--can help us face challenges in a healthier, more authentic way, and in turn guides others to do the same. Ultimately, Gisele redefines strength and leadership for our modern times, presenting tools for surviving and thriving in a world designed to wreck the tender-hearted. Because by embracing those emotions publicly--laughter, vulnerability, and, yes, even tears--we not only honor ourselves but open a path toward changing the world.

Authentic: The Myth of Bringing Your Full Self to Work
A bold call to rethink authenticity at work Workplace dynamics in recent years have been a dizzying storm of broken promises. Companies that once encouraged employees to "come as you are" and bring your full, authentic self to work are now shutting down initiatives, part of an ongoing cycle of trading on our identities when it's convenient and profitable. Jodi-Ann Burey, writer and critic known for her TED talk "The Myth of Bringing Your Full, Authentic Self to Work," delves into the dangers of disclosure in environments that aren't built for our well-being. With insights from pop culture, academic research, and interviews with other professionals of color, Burey argues that we deserve better than shallow ploys for representation. Our physical and emotional health are at risk, and too much is sacrificed--for ourselves and for collective progress--when our full potential is blocked by racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism. Authentic is a powerful reckoning--and now is the time to reclaim our agency. Even at work.

The last thing you want to do is kick the hornet's nest you carry around with you. However, the latest research in psychology emphasizes the importance of approaching--rather than avoiding--your emotions.

What you need is a solid set of tools that will allow you to feel a full range of emotions with confidence. This book will provide just the tool set you require. In this workbook, psychologist Michael Tompkins offers evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) skills to help you target and tear down the emotional avoidance barriers that drive your anxiety and depression.

You'll also find strategies to help you stay calm during emotional situations; and discover relaxation and mindfulness techniques to deal effectively with difficult thoughts and feelings, and improve your mood and well-being.The tools in this workbook help you learn this important lesson: You can handle emotions, even unpleasant ones. When you believe you can handle feeling anxious and depressed, you're less likely to avoid those feelings, creating space for you to be more willing to do the things that you want to do in your life.
