Book Description
For many women in their 20's and 30's, the greatest professional hurdle they'll need to overcome has little to do with their work life. The most focused, confident, and ambitious women can find themselves derailed by a tiny little thing: a new baby. While more workplaces are espousing family-friendly cultures, women are still subject to a "parenting penalty" and high-profile conflicts between parenting and the workplace are all over the news: from the controversy over companies covering the costs of egg-freezing to the debate over parental leave and childcare inspired by Marissa Mayer's policies at Yahoo. Here's the Plan offers an inventive and inspiring roadmap for working mothers steering their careers through the parenting years. Author Allyson Downey, founder of weeSpring, the "Yelp for baby products,” and mother of two young children advises readers on all practical aspects of ladder-climbing while parenting, such as negotiating leave, flex time, and promotions. In the style of #GIRLBOSS or Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, Here's the Plan is the definitive guide for ambitious mothers, written by one working mother to another.

Book Description
Winner of the Gold Medal for Best Christian Family and Parenting Book of 2020 by the Illumination Book Awards The creator of the viral parenting concept the “X-Plan” illuminates the importance of awakening your child’s unique strength—while also taking an introspective look at your own life story to become a better parent. Last year, father and former teacher Bert Fulks’s simple parenting idea went viral: if your teenagers find themselves in a situation where they feel uncomfortable or trapped, they can text a family member an “X.” That family member will then call, giving the teen a way out, while still maintaining their freedom—and no questions will be asked. Now in X-Plan Parenting, Fulks expands on the how and the why behind his plan, emphasizing the importance of developing trusting relationships with our kids. Drawing on biblical principles, Fulks’s approach illuminates how even though we want the very best for our children, we sometimes parent from a place of brokenness and a desire for control rather than support and encouragement. We focus on our mistakes and painful growing up moments and the things we wish we’d had when we were kids instead of what’s best for our own children right now. This dynamic can pit kids against their parents and create rifts in the relationship. Fulks advocates for an alliance between children and parents instead of an “us vs. them” mentality. Rather than spending so much time coaxing or battling our kids, Fulks inspires us to work with our kids instead of against them. And rather than trying to right our own past wrongs vicariously through our children, he urges us to recognize where we need healing so we can provide authentic strength to support our kids’ unique journeys. There is a tender art to disciplining our kids, and X-Plan Parenting serves up laughter and tears, hard questions, and plenty of grace to moms and dads who want their kids to love God and lead passionate, joyful lives in an unpredictable world.

Book Description
Full of stories of successful entrepreneurs, The Pumpkin Plan guides you through unconventional strategies to help you build a truly profitable blue-ribbon company that is the best in its field Each year Americans start one million new businesses, nearly 80 percent of which fail within the first five years. Under such pressure to stay alive—let alone grow—it’s easy for entrepreneurs to get caught up in a never-ending cycle of “sell it—do it, sell it—do it” that leaves them exhausted, frustrated, and unable to get ahead no matter how hard they try. This is the exact situation Mike Michalowicz found himself in when he was trying to grow his first company. But that’s when he discovered an unlikely source of inspiration—pumpkin farmers. After reading an article about a local farmer who had dedicated his life to growing giant pumpkins, Michalowicz realized the same process could apply to growing a business. He tested the Pumpkin Plan on his own company and transformed it into a remarkable, multimillion-dollar industry leader. First he did it for himself. Then for others. And now you.

Book Description
Racism and discrimination have choked economic opportunity for African Americans at nearly every turn. At several historic moments, the trajectory of racial inequality could have been altered dramatically. But neither Reconstruction nor the New Deal nor the civil rights struggle led to an economically just and fair nation. Today, systematic inequality persists in the form of housing discrimination, unequal education, police brutality, mass incarceration, employment discrimination, and massive wealth and opportunity gaps. Economic data indicates that for every dollar the average white household holds in wealth the average black household possesses a mere ten cents. This compelling and sharply argued book addresses economic injustices head-on and make the most comprehensive case to date for economic reparations for U.S. descendants of slavery. Using innovative methods that link monetary values to historical wrongs, William Darity Jr. and A. Kirsten Mullen assess the literal and figurative costs of justice denied in the 155 years since the end of the Civil War and offer a detailed roadmap for an effective reparations program, including a substantial payment to each documented U.S. black descendant of slavery. This new edition features a new foreword addressing the latest developments on the local, state, and federal level and considering current prospects for a comprehensive reparations program.

Book Description
There Is Only Plan A is a self-help book that will revolutionize and awaken a generation seeking to develop a life full of meaning, authenticity, and purpose. Through the use of real-life stories, Plan A teaches readers how to discover their purpose and calling in life, offering mechanisms to help sustain themselves while striving to obtain their Plan A. Plan A gets to the root of negative personal issues that stand in an individual's way of becoming a complete person. Through the authenticity of lived experience, readers are taken on a journey of raw spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical truths that the author, Klay S. Williams, experienced on the journey to his Plan A. The philosophy of Plan A is that when people desire to be their very best—through extreme self-expression in any arena—Plan A is the place where peace, reality, and spirit are met, offering readers the fortitude of understanding who they were meant to be. The explorative manner in which Plan A is displayed offers significant appeal to both secular and spiritual/religious readers, who are looking for a platform to experience an invigorating journey that does not judge their belief systems, but will enhance their quality of life. Plan A operates under a very specific, clear, and appealing formula that is unique to the universal experience individuals will undergo while striving to obtain their dream. Plan A simply asks the question, “Does my life reflect who I was called to be?” The immense impact of answering the above question without certainty creates an even bigger void in the lives of most young adult to midlife individuals who are seeking to live a lifespan full of meaning and purpose. There Is Only Plan A is the resource that will provide a path to both discover and fulfill the reader's mission while here on earth. Unlike most self-help books on the market today, There Is Only Plan A provides an extensive amount of teaching experience within the “Hard Work” section of Plan A—as the journey amid discovering and fulfilling our end goal is the most challenging measure of the process. Readers will discover a vast array of identifiable stories within each chapter that range from the author's stint with homelessness; relationship betrayal; divine interventions; sexual identity; financial ruin; and various other circumstances on the way to Plan A that he experienced. Unbeknownst to us, Plan A has always been working in our lives, but has required us to recognize its call, understand its meaning, and make peace with the gift that is bestowed to us. The unlikely path of the author, as he discovered his Plan A, is an incredibly interesting story that will capture the hearts and inquisitive natures of readers. Through real life journal entries that appear before each corresponding chapter, readers will experience firsthand the raw passions of the author as he discovers his dream. While engaging in graduate theological studies at Princeton Theological Seminary (in hopes of becoming a pastor) and working at Polo Ralph Lauren to offset the cost of grad school, it was within the spiritual and fashion sectors that the author found his Plan A. The unorthodox nature of Klay's Plan A serves for creative discernment, inspired conversation, and radical change in the lives of his readers. The unconventional process illustrated in There Is Only Plan A is practical and relatable for readers in a wide variety of settings, from local taverns in New York City, to Corporate America confines, to ashrams in India, to protestant synagogues in America and other followers of thought throughout the world.
