Book Description
Imagine you're one of 75,000 people working in a huge company, and the CEO wants to talk to you, one-on-one, to get to know and understand you. That's what Monty Moran did 20,000 times as he built the extraordinary culture that took Chipotle Mexican Grill from a regional burrito chain to a Fortune 500 superstar. In Love Is Free, Guac Is Extra, Monty shows how he used curiosity, vulnerability, love, and a unique understanding of the true meaning of empowerment to build a distinctive and wildly effective culture. From his teenage days befriending homeless people at a Colorado Dairy Queen to his nuanced navigation of a complex co-CEO relationship, Monty demonstrates a relentless humility and desire to understand the person across from him. This is not your average leadership book. This is a book about business leadership executed in a way you've never encountered before, by becoming the best version of yourself.

Book Description
Sheltered Beauty yearns for love. Captive Beast seeks redemption. Trapped in an enchanted manor together, will they find in each other their hearts’ desires? In this grown-up version of Beauty and the Beast, we meet Beauty, a sheltered young woman living in the French countryside with her father. The books her tutor secretly gives her provide the only escape from her cloistered life. Engraved with a beautiful rose, each book breathlessly describes the ways in which men and women lust for and love each other. Beast is a tortured soul trapped in an enchanted manor for the sins of his past. He wants nothing more than redemption. A second chance. When a hapless traveler stumbles upon Beast’s home and attempts to steal one of the library’s rose-covered books, Beast is intrigued. Even more so when the groveling man tells him he only wanted the book for his daughter, who loves to read them. Beast then does the unthinkable: demands the daughter in exchange for the man’s life. Amazingly, the father complies. Beauty is cool to Beast when she arrives, despondent over being trapped with a vile creature, and no hope of knowing the types of passionate, heart-pounding love she’s read about in her books. Beast feels desolate when he realizes that proximity to a woman of passion will not help him atone. He fears all is lost. But a glimmer of kindness can spark passion. Will Beauty and Beast find exactly what they wanted is right in front of them? If you enjoy re-imagined fairy tales, red-hot love scenes, and happily ever afters, then you will love Beauty and Her Beastly Love.

Pages : 113
Book Description
The Extra-Ordinary Journey From A Worldly Love to A Godly Love is a piece of my life and others' lives where we share our experiences of pain and disappointment from divorce and broken relationships. These true stories of the piercing events that transpired in our lives took us to dark places and made many of us lose hope in love until we went through our healing process and discovered what genuine love is. Some of the stories may make you laugh, cry, or just shake your head (SMH)! In this book, you will find meditation, scriptures, poems, and an area for you to jot down your thoughts while reading about our experiences. I conducted a survey, which included men's and women's viewpoints about love and relationships, and I have included their answers in this book as well. As you read and travel with us on this journey, it is my hope that you keep an open mind and ask God to speak to you as you may find your story between these pages and discover that you, too, can be healed if you trust the process even when the process does not seem trustworthy.

Work Won't Love You Back
Author: Sarah Jaffe
Publisher: Bold Type Books
ISBN: 1568589387
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
A deeply-reported examination of why "doing what you love" is a recipe for exploitation, creating a new tyranny of work in which we cheerily acquiesce to doing jobs that take over our lives. You're told that if you "do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life." Whether it's working for "exposure" and "experience," or enduring poor treatment in the name of "being part of the family," all employees are pushed to make sacrifices for the privilege of being able to do what we love. In Work Won't Love You Back, Sarah Jaffe, a preeminent voice on labor, inequality, and social movements, examines this "labor of love" myth—the idea that certain work is not really work, and therefore should be done out of passion instead of pay. Told through the lives and experiences of workers in various industries—from the unpaid intern, to the overworked teacher, to the nonprofit worker and even the professional athlete—Jaffe reveals how all of us have been tricked into buying into a new tyranny of work. As Jaffe argues, understanding the trap of the labor of love will empower us to work less and demand what our work is worth. And once freed from those binds, we can finally figure out what actually gives us joy, pleasure, and satisfaction.
