Good Enough Is the New Perfect
Author: Becky Beaupre Gillespie
Publisher: Harlequin
ISBN: 1459201655
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
In this updated 10th anniversary edition of Gillespie and Temple’s groundbreaking research, Good Enough Is the New Perfect shows that modern mothers really can have it all. The pressure on women is real. We dominate in our jobs while simultaneously juggling the needs of our families and our homes. But what about our own needs? With so many balls in the air, finding balance is harder than ever. The truth is that you can have it all. The secret is creating an “all” that you love. Through their extensive research, Becky Beaupre Gillespie and Hollee Schwartz Temple have discovered a paradigm shift in motherhood: more and more mothers are losing their “never enough” attitude and embracing a “good enough” mindset to be happier, more confident and more fulfilled. With inspiring firsthand accounts from working mothers, Good Enough Is the New Perfect is a true roadmap for the incredible balancing act we call motherhood and getting what you really want out of your career, your family and your life. “Most moms I know don’t even want it all. We just want less stress and enough time. But how can we achieve it? [Good Enough Is the New Perfect] sheds light on this question.” —The Washington Post

Belovedness
Author: James Franklin
Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1640652841
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
This thought-provoking book for college students and those who minister with them deals with issues of faith, identity, sex, success, failure, and more, through the concept of belovedness. Every college student’s story is different, but they all have the same questions in common. Who am I? How do I make good choices? What does it mean to be successful? How do I navigate changing relationships with my family, my peers, my significant other? And how do I do all of this faithfully? This book approaches these topics through a fundamental inquiry: “What if I really, truly believed that I was beloved beyond all measure, and how would that influence what I do?” Along with the editors, eight campus ministers from across several denominations contributed to this volume to help students navigate questions of life and faith in the world of high-pressure college campuses. Telling it like it is with wit and wisdom drawn from scripture, tradition, and life experience, this book offers profound and practical reminders of what it is to be beloved.

Reach
Author: Becky Robinson
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1523000880
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Cut through the noise and create the biggest possible audience for your work. This book offers a proven method for expanding your reach online so you can make a meaningful difference for others. Anyone who makes the bold decision to put their ideas out into the world wants to reach as many people as possible. Unfortunately, too many think it's a question of numbers-the more people you can get in front of, the better. But true reach is about expanding your audience while making a meaningful and enduring difference that has a lasting impact. Reach provides a clear and structured approach to creating a successful online presence that will create the biggest possible impact for any message. Becky Robinson shares a framework to cultivate followers that requires four commitments: value, consistency, endurance, and generosity. When you make these four commitments, you'll deliver memorable content on a regular basis while keeping the long-term view in mind and being committed to helping and sharing with others. Robinson offers guidance on having realistic expectations and meaningful goals, encouraging readers to reflect on what they want to accomplish and with whom they want to connect. Readers will also learn how to overcome discouragements, create and repurpose content, and focus on the everyday activities that will spread ideas. This is a long-term process-one that doesn't normally offer immediate results or guarantee the desired outcome. But, as Robinson reminds us, creating from a place of generosity can lead to benefits greater than you can imagine.

Billy Peal and Josie West
Author: Dale McMillan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1984585053
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Born eight days apart, Billy Peal and Josie West were first cousins but a great deal more like siblings. Billy’s mother Mary, whom all the West boys called "Baby Sister," was younger sister to Josie's father, one of a set of twin boys. After the death of his father in the Vietnam War, Billy was taken under the wings of his mother's three brothers and his maternal grandparents who all lived together on the family ranch. Josie and Billy referred to themselves as twins with different parents. The actual twins, Tim and Jim West, were rodeo enthusiasts, the first a steer wrestler and the latter a calf roper. Billy and Josie shared their enthusiasm and Billy participated in bronco riding, steer wrestling and calf roping while Josie became a serious barrel racer. Still, Billy was always a gentleman. Josie, however, could outride, outshoot, and outcuss any of the boys around her and gave her dad a run for his money as well. This was a constant source of contention between her parents, roughshod rodeo rider Tim and Jim the epitome of a perfect lady. A complication in Billy's life was his parents' history. William Peal and Mary West had married in secret. William was in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M College and not supposed to be married, Soon, though, Mary was pregnant and the relationship was hard to hide. William's conniving stepmother, Alice Peal, saw an opportunity and launched a smear campaign to discredit the couple, casting doubt and shame upon their "secret marriage," and trying to convince Billy’s paternal grandfather, bank president and mayor of the small town of Westerly, Texas, to cut Billy out of any inheritance. Life gets pretty interesting with Alice Peal at the head of anything and everything in Westerley.

The Grinning Killer: Chris Halliwell - How Many Women Do You Have to Kill to Be a Serial Killer?
Author: Nigel Cawthorne
Publisher: Kings Road Publishing
ISBN: 1789460395
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
In the early hours of 19 March 2011, 22-year-old Sian O’Callaghan left a nightclub in Swindon to make the half-mile journey back to her home. She was never seen alive again. The prime suspect in her disappearance, local taxi driver Christopher Halliwell, was arrested a few days later. Seemingly an ordinary family man, in reality, Halliwell regularly visited sex workers and viewed incredibly violent pornography. Chillingly, he had once asked a fellow inmate during a prison sentence in the 1980s how many people it was required to kill in order to be a serial killer. Not only did Halliwell admit to killing O’Callaghan, he then led police to the body of Becky Godden, a sex worker who had been missing for eight years. But as a result of an error in police procedure, this couldn’t be used to charge him with Godden’s murder. After a painstaking process of collecting new evidence, he was finally sentenced to a full-life jail term for the killings in 2016. However, essential questions remain: what happened in the eight years between Godden and O’Callaghan’s deaths? Did Halliwell go quiet, or are there other innocent victims yet to be found? How far back could his killing spree go? This is the terrifying and gripping true story of one of the most brutal serial killers in modern times and the catastrophic error that almost prevented justice from being served.
