“Finally: an engaging, evidence-based book about how to battle biases, champion diversity and inclusion, and advocate for those who lack power and privilege. Dolly Chugh makes a convincing case that being an ally isn’t about being a good person—it’s about constantly striving to be a better person.” —Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B with Sheryl SandbergForeword by Laszlo Bock, the bestselling author of Work Rules! and former Senior Vice President of People Operations at GoogleAn inspiring guide from Dolly Chugh, an award-winning social psychologist at the New York University Stern School of Business, on how to confront difficult issues including sexism, racism, inequality, and injustice so that you can make the world (and yourself) better.Many of us believe in equality, diversity, and inclusion. But how do we stand up for those values in our turbulent world? The Person You Mean to Be is the smart, "semi-bold" person’s guide to fighting for what you believe in.Dolly reveals the surprising causes of inequality, grounded in the "psychology of good people". Using her research findings in unconscious bias as well as work across psychology, sociology, economics, political science, and other disciplines, she offers practical tools to respectfully and effectively talk politics with family, to be a better colleague to people who don’t look like you, and to avoid being a well-intentioned barrier to equality. Being the person we mean to be starts with a look at ourselves.She argues that the only way to be on the right side of history is to be a good-ish— rather than good—person. Good-ish people are always growing. Second, she helps you find your "ordinary privilege"—the part of your everyday identity you take for granted, such as race for a white person, sexual orientation for a straight person, gender for a man, or education for a college graduate. This part of your identity may bring blind spots, but it is your best tool for influencing change. Third, Dolly introduces the psychological reasons that make it hard for us to see the bias in and around us. She leads you from willful ignorance to willful awareness. Finally, she guides you on how, when, and whom, to engage (and not engage) in your workplaces, homes, and communities. Her science-based approach is a method any of us can put to use in all parts of our life.Whether you are a long-time activist or new to the fight, you can start from where you are. Through the compelling stories Dolly shares and the surprising science she reports, Dolly guides each of us closer to being the person we mean to be.

You are who you are today because of a million tiny moments. It''s hard to say which moments are responsible for your tendency to cancel plans, what initiated a weird habit or why your go-to comfort food as a kid was a ketchup-and-mustard sandwich, but sometimes you only need to spend a little time reflecting in order to unearth these connections between past and present.In this illustrated journal, artist, Siobhan Gallagher, will jog your memory and encourage self-reflection with fun and engaging prompts, such as:·What is something (or someone) you can''t believe you ever liked?·In the museum of your life, what moment was so important that it would need to be represented by a life-sized diorama?·If you could bottle up your childhood, what would it smell like? (Chocolate-scented marker pens? Grandma''s house?)·Draw and label all the things you''ve lost that you wish you''d found.With plenty of room to write and reflect, WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? will help you examine your past to understand the unique and fascinating timeline that made you into the person you are today.

Is your sex life amazing? Probably not, if you're like most women. In fact, "amazing" isn't even close to how you've ever experienced sex-but it isn't your fault. You can thank Hollywood's portrayals and society's silence for your crappy sex life. Rarely do we learn what truly makes sex great for women, why understanding anatomy matters, or how our pleasure is not just important but vital. In You Are Not Broken, Dr. Kelly Casperson offers a unique perspective as a urologist, coach, and fellow woman wondering, when it comes to sex, "Is this all there is?" Dr. Casperson explores how to adjust your mindset and provides an in-depth look at what makes women physiologically unique. Better sex creates a better relationship between you and your partner. With real-life stories, ideas for journaling, and tips to get the conversation going, this book is the sex empowerment secret weapon you really need to live the life you've always wanted.Praise for You Are Not Broken: "We don't talk about sexual struggles enough. It's very much a taboo topic still. Dr. Kelly Casperson is my go-to person, providing education and solutions with a healthy dose of humor and the best personality. This book should be on every woman's bookshelf!"— Amanda Thebe, author of Menopocalypse "I was thrilled to find Dr. Kelly Casperson and her podcast, course, and now book You Are Not Broken as a resource for my patients—as an ob-gyn for twenty-two years, I often hear women anxiously whisper to me in hushed tones that they are certain 'something is wrong with them' when they report their 'decreased libido' despite being in long-term/happy relationships. Now Dr. Casperson continues to debunk the myths, bust the stigma, and help us all connect more with ourselves and our partners! Kudos!"— Shieva Ghofrany, MD, Co-Founder of Tribe Called V "We are so excited for this book! Kelly joined us on our #MOMTRUTHS podcast to chat about all things sex, and she literally blew our minds with her insight and advice, so we can't wait to read more!"— Cat and Nat "In a world where there is so much medical misinformation, a lack of research in women's sexual health, and very few doctors who specialize, Dr. Casperson is trying to tackle it all. She has made it her mission to help people better understand their minds and bodies and what gets them excited." — Rachel Rubin, MD, urologist and sexual medicine specialist "Kelly Casperson's approach to low sexual desire is relatable and no-nonsense, with a good dose of humor thrown in. She asks the questions we all want to know while giving the commentary we are all secretly thinking."— Jill Krapf, MD "Dr. Casperson is a godsend to my patients and students. She is the first provider I have heard tackle the difficult and misunderstood subject of female sexual function that makes a woman feel empowered rather than shamed. My students are rabid fans of her podcast and thank me constantly for the referral. She is revolutionizing women's sexual health and I am here for it!" — Mary Claire Haver, MD, FACOG, Founder of the Galveston Diet

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST IS GOING TO COME BACK TO THIS EARTH AGAIN? I do. And I don’t see any other hope for the world because we’re heading toward a catastrophe.The Bible says, “Scoffers will come in the last days. . . . They will say, ‘Where is the promise of his coming?’ For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly” (2 Peter 3:3–7).The Word of God, the Bible, speaks of the certainties of the end of the world. Jesus said, “As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man” (Matthew 24:37). What were the days of Noah like? And is there a parallel for today? The people of Noah’s day were very wicked: “Every intention of the thoughts” of their hearts was “only evil continually” (Genesis 6:5). Marriage was abused, people were corrupt, violence prevailed (Genesis 6:1–13). There was a lot of “religion,” but it was decadent. People were preoccupied with things and didn’t have time for God.So God warned them, “Unless you repent and change your ways, you’re going to face judgment.” In the middle of all that corruption, Noah dared to live for God. Noah believed in God, and true faith determined how he lived. By that faith Noah built a ship in the middle of the desert, and he and his family were saved when the waters of destruction came (Genesis 6:1–13, Hebrews 11:7). True faith should determine how we live, too.Today the only bright spot on the horizon of this world’s future is the promise of the return of Jesus Christ. We can’t go on like this much longer, either morally or scientifically. The technology that was supposed to save us is ready to destroy us. Yet we’re not to wait in terror, because as Christians, we have the hope of the return of Christ. When is he going to return? Jesus said, “Concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only” (Matthew 24:36).NOAH BELIEVED IN GOD, AND TRUE FAITH DETERMINED HOW HE LIVED. TRUE FAITH SHOULD DETERMINE HOW WE LIVE, TOO.But are you ready when the end of life in this world comes for you personally? The Bible says, “It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment” (Hebrews 9:27). It is coming the moment you die, and that could be at any time for any of us. You may be expecting to live for many more years, but you can’t know for sure. We never know. One of the biblical prophets wrote, “Prepare to meet your God” (Amos 4:12). What have you done spiritually in your life to prepare for that moment when your heart stops beating? The Bible also says about Jesus: “There is salvation [from God’s judgment for sin] in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). You need to make a commitment to Christ today.First, repent of your sins, including all of those things we say and do that offend other people, and God himself! “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Without God’s Spirit coming to live within us we don’t have the strength to change and live a life that pleases God. That’s why we need to be saved! Repentance means that you say to God, “I have sinned. I am sorry for my sins. I want to change my way of living by your empowerment.”Second, you come to God by faith. That means that you put your whole trust in him and say, “Lord, I believe Christ’s death for me provides everything I need to be forgiven for my sins and become accepted by you. I trust in Jesus alone for my salvation. Please save me now and help me live for you.”You may be a good person. You may do all the good that you can think of, but all of that isn’t enough. You must come in childlike faith to Jesus who died on the cross for you, who rose again, who is waiting for you to make that commitment.ARE YOU READY TO MEET GOD?

THE TIME-HONOURED INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER, UPDATED AND WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION AND AFTERWORD, CELEBRATING THIRTY YEARS OF INFLUENCING THE WAY WE LIVE For the past three decades, Wherever You Go, There You Are has helped catalyse the explosion of interest in mindfulness around the world. While mindfulness is considered the heart of Buddhist meditation, its essence is universal and of deep practical benefit, potentially to all. In essence, mindfulness is about embodied wakefulness. Our minds are such that we are often more asleep than awake to the unique beauty and possibilities of each present moment. While it is in the nature of all our minds to default to autopilot and lose touch with the only time we actually have to live - to feel, to grow, to love, to learn, to give shape to things, to heal - our mind also holds the innate capacity to awaken to each moment. This book gives you a variety of ways to experiment with not missing your moments and take maximal advantage of them by tending what most needs tending to now. Given the myriad mega-challenges humanity and planet Earth are facing at this time, Wherever You Go, There You Are can provide both a personal refuge for meaning - making, healing and transformation, as well as a locus for collaborating with others to heal the suffering of the world.

Cal Newport''s clearly-written manifesto flies in the face of conventional wisdom by suggesting that it should be a person''s talent and skill - and not necessarily their passion - that determines their career path. Newport, who graduated from Dartmouth College (Phi Beta Kappa) and earned a PhD. from MIT, contends that trying to find what drives us, instead of focusing on areas in which we naturally excel, is ultimately harmful and frustrating to job seekers.The title is a direct quote from comedian Steve Martin who, when once asked why he was successful in his career, immediately replied: "Be so good they can''t ignore you" and that''s the main basis for Newport''s book. Skill and ability trump passion. Inspired by former Apple CEO Steve Jobs'' famous Stanford University commencement speech in which Jobs urges idealistic grads to chase their dreams, Newport takes issue with that advice, claiming that not only is thsi advice Pollyannish, but that Jobs himself never followed his own advice.From there, Newport presents compelling scientific and contemporary case study evidence that the key to one''s career success is to find out what you do well, where you have built up your ''career capital,'' and then to put all of your efforts into that direction.

Belief can be so strong that pharmaceutical companies use double- and triple-blind randomized studies to try to exclude the power of the mind over the body when evaluating new drugs."In his paradigm-altering book, You Are the Placebo, Dr. Joe Dispenza catapults us beyond thinking of the placebo effect as an anomaly.

''We are the Beloved. We are intimately loved long before our parents, teachers, spouses, children and friends loved or wounded us. That''s the truth of our lives. That''s the truth I want you to claim for yourself. That''s the truth spoken by the voice that says, "You are my Beloved."'' - Henri Nouwen, Life of the Beloved Henri Nouwen, priest, professor and writer, devoted much of his later ministry to emphasising the singular concept of our identity as the Beloved of God. In an interview, he said that he believed the central moment in Jesus'' public ministry to be his baptism in the Jordan, when Jesus heard the affirmation, ''You are my beloved son on whom my favour rests.'' ''That is the core experience of Jesus,'' Nouwen writes. ''He is reminded in a deep, deep way of who he is ... I think his whole life is continually claiming that identity in the midst of everything.''You Are Beloved is a daily devotional created from the very best of Nouwen''s writings, paired with daily Scripture readings, that reveals our identity as children of God, and which encourages us to live out that truth in our daily lives. Nouwen is at once refreshingly accessible, unafraid to wrestle with challenging questions, and above all an encouraging and sympathetic voice along the way.
