Book Description
Tackling relationships, career, and family issues, John Kim, LMFT, thinks of himself as a life-styledesigner, not a therapist. His radical new approach, that he sometimes calls “self-help in a shot glass” is easy, real, and to the point. He helps people make changes to their lives so that personal growth happens organically, just by living. Let’s face it, therapy is a luxury. Few of us have the time or money to devote to going to an office every week. With anecdotes illustrating principles in action (in relatable and sometimes irreverent fashion) and stand-alone practices and exercises, Kim gives readers the tools and directions to focus on what's right with them instead of what's wrong. When John Kim was going through the end of a relationship, he began blogging as The Angry Therapist, documenting his personal journey post-divorce. Traditional therapists avoid transparency, but Kim preferred the language of "me too" as opposed to "you should." He blogged about his own shortcomings, revelations, views on relationships, and the world. He spoke a different therapeutic language —open, raw, and at times subversive — and people responded. The Angry Therapist blog, that inspired this book, has been featured in The Atlantic Monthly and on NPR.

Book Description
An eye-opening, funny, painful, and always truthful in-depth examination of modern relationships, and a wake-up call for single women about getting real about Mr. Right, from the New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone. You have a fulfilling job, great friends, and the perfect apartment. So what if you haven’t found “The One” just yet. He’ll come along someday, right? But what if he doesn’t? Or what if Mr. Right had been, well, Mr. Right in Front of You—but you passed him by? Nearing forty and still single, journalist Lori Gottlieb started to wonder: What makes for lasting romantic fulfillment, and are we looking for those qualities when we’re dating? Are we too picky about trivial things that don’t matter, and not picky enough about the often overlooked things that do? In Marry Him, Gottlieb explores an all-too-common dilemma—how to reconcile the desire for a happy marriage with a list of must-haves and deal-breakers so long and complicated that many great guys get misguidedly eliminated. On a quest to find the answer, Gottlieb sets out on her own journey in search of love, discovering wisdom and surprising insights from sociologists and neurobiologists, marital researchers and behavioral economists—as well as single and married men and women of all generations.

Book Description
A quick, inspiring, yet practical read, Don't Settle demystifies what it takes to go after the job and the life you love. For the 20- and 30-somethings who find themselves dissatisfied at work, in jobs that are "fine" or which simply "pay the bills," Author Molly King urges readers "Don't Settle" with a career whose only highlights are weekends and vacation time. Life is too short to trade hours for dollars with the hope that things might improve in the future. Written in an easily digestible Q&A format, Don't Settle settles all the questions, doubts, and fears that arise when beginning or restarting a job search, and empowers readers to boldly take charge of their career path's trajectory and redirect their momentum into an arena where they are truly passionate and driven intrinsically to make a significant contribution. Don't Settle includes all of the following and more! * Insider interviews with top industry game-changers who've made the leap into doing work they love and are crushing it, including lifestyle entrepreneur and creator of the highly-acclaimed podcast, School of Greatness, Lewis Howes and New York Times Bestselling author and modern-day explorer, Chris Guillebeau* Quick Q&A sections to cover over 90 job search-related questions and concerns* The step-by-step processes Molly King designed and implemented to take her from a very dark and hopeless state about her career trajectory, to a state where she's now compelled into her life's "work"* Exercises for the reader to help identify where they currently are, what they ultimately want to do/create, and how to get there* As well as several tools and resources to help support the reader on his or her own journeyLike many of us, Molly had her own version of a job that looked good on paper with a "comfortable" paycheck. But the position and her trajectory left her wanting more. She had glimpsed the possibility of having work that she was truly proud of and that she feel matters, getting to wake up feeling "pulled" out of bed, rather than "pushed" through the day. Wanting more out of her life and her career, Molly left her cookie cutter corporate world in search of something much more well suited to her unique take on this world, and boy did she find something incredible: herself. The hope is that Molly's story and the tools she used to make that shift-from having a job with a good paycheck, and an OK life, to doing work that inspires-will encourage others to evaluate where they are, where they'd like to go, and to muster up the courage to move in that direction. Each of us is made for so much more than just going to work, paying bills, and living for the weekend or our next vacation. The perfect job or a life you love doesn't just happen. It's a choice and it takes courage and a lot of work. But from those who've undertaken the journey can tell you, from this side of the cubicle, it's well worth the struggle.

Book Description
Discover the personal meaning and gladness you hunger for—without settling for normal! Every human wants to matter and be happy, which is as it should be. God made us to resemble and reflect His worth as we enjoy our true identity in Him. But we too often swap that calling for the trifles of this world, pursuing cheap substitutes to fill the craving of our souls. As Jonathan Parnell puts it, we settle for “stupid normal” over the transcendent, even though this world can never satisfy our hopes and dreams. In Never Settle for Normal Jonathan speaks to the heart of both skeptics and searchers by addressing their deepest longings. With insight and passion, he examines the key tenets of Christian faith—creation, fall, redemption, new creation—and reveals the life-changing glory of the Christian story in a fresh, new light.

Book Description
The hidden value of settling In a culture that worships ceaseless striving, "settling" seems like giving up. But is it? On Settling defends the positive value of settling, explaining why this disdained practice is not only more realistic but more useful than an excessive ideal of striving. In fact, the book makes the case that we'd all be lost without settling--and that even to strive, one must first settle. We may admire strivers and love the ideal of striving, but who of us could get through a day without settling? Real people, confronted with a complex problem, simply make do, settling for some resolution that, while almost certainly not the best that one could find by devoting limitless time and attention to the problem, is nonetheless good enough. Robert Goodin explores the dynamics of this process. These involve taking as fixed, for now, things that we reserve the right to reopen later (nothing is fixed for good, although events might always overtake us). We settle on some things in order to concentrate better on others. At the same time we realize we may need to come back later and reconsider those decisions. From settling on and settling for, to settling down and settling in, On Settling explains why settling is useful for planning, creating trust, and strengthening the social fabric--and why settling is different from compromise and resignation. So, the next time you're faced with a thorny problem, just settle. It's no failure.

If you are attempting to be the best educator you can in the environment you're in, you need ideas and encouragement from someone who's been exactly where you are. Even if you had the time, money, and support we know teachers deserve, we know that applying any knowledge always has a greater impact when you're able to give personal and practical application to the ideas you know matter.

Positivity: How can we roll with the punches but not have to fake it? Authenticity: How can I be myself but genuinely connect with young people? Leadership: How do I get my students to lead without me? Collaboration: How do I work with my administrators, colleagues, and parents to better every student's education? Diversity: How do I help build empathy and understanding among myself and my students? Development: How am I always getting better? Plus more!
