Lady and the Tribe, How to Create Empowering Friendship Circles
Wives, mothers and career women - we have all fallen victim to the silent epidemic that is, literally . . . letting ourselves go. Not the weight-gain, makeup-free, yoga-pants routine. Little by little, we have allowed our preferences, interests, and individuality to slip away until we no longer recognize ourselves outside of our role as wives, mothers, or professionals. Who we are has become what we do.In the process, our friendships have become the casualty of a "busy life" and lack consistency and depth. We have a gaping hole inside us that longs to be filled. How do we reclaim who we really are and fill this empty space that seemed to appear from nowhere?The answer lies in our Tribe. Our best friends see us more clearly than we see ourselves and are representations and extensions of our individuality. They are our companions, cheerleaders, and counselors-always in our corner. They are the branches of our tree of life that lift and support us, so we can flourish. Our Tribe is the family with whom we choose to live our life . . . with no strings attached.Lady and the Tribe is a blueprint for building deep connections. As you read, you'll be swept away on a journey of friendship as the author shares her own personal stories and those of other women. In the process, you'll discover how to find, nurture, and deepen friendships and create a Tribe culture that is unique to you.We can become whole again through the power of connection.When three or more gather, we are Tribe.

The Gentleman
Just a few years ago, you could see men showing chivalrous behavior towards women everywhere you turned. It could be something as simple as helping put on her coat, opening a door or pulling out her chair, but it was considered normal and expected behavior. Men went out of their way to show simple manners and etiquette towards women. Times have changed and now these acts are few and far between. It is now uncommon to see a man treating a woman with the same decent etiquette and behavior, as in the past. This is a perfect example of change not always being good. Why has there been such a drastic change in this behavior and what can we do to bring back "The Gentleman"?

Lessons I Learned from My Father
The author details some of the abusive experiences at the hands of his father that he had while growing up, such as being pushed backwards down a flight of stairs, only to receive more violence when he landed at the bottom of them. He tells what each of these experiences caused him to think about both himself, others, and society in general, such as "I'm of little or no value and expendable" and "no one is to be trusted." Having been an avid reader of neurobiology and psychiatry writings for several years now, the author also, in layman's terms, explains how the wiring of the brain is connected differently in a person suffering from complex PTSD (the result of constant child abuse) from that of a well-raised person. Finally, the author asks parents to think carefully about how they treat their children, suggesting that they encourage them to develop according to their own interests, likes, and abilities, and that they provide their children with the resources necessary to further their interests and abilities. Child abuse is the #1 health crisis in America and the author is hoping that his books will reduce the numbers of abused children through parent awareness.

The Rocky Road to Peace of Mind
The ongoing grief journey after the loss of a loved one, particularly following any of the Dementia's diseases, has some surprising twists to it. Sylvia shares her grief walk from her husband's passing for almost three years and the realisation that life is very different. You don't "get over it". As some may say. Neither is it just a case that "life goes on". Yes, life moves forward, but becomes an adjustment to a new life that includes days where "grief bumps" suddenly appear without rhyme or reason. Interspersed with her story, Sylvia seeks to help those who are grieving in their own unique way, offering comfort and encouragement. Grief is not something that can be logically "put in a box" - one size fits all. With illustrative examples, the reader will be able to take a sigh of relief and better cope with their own very personal, very different life as it plays out from day to day. Nobody can comfortably walk in someone else's shoes. From a false sense of inner peace and a realisation of how hard the grief journey is, read about the confusion of it all, where nothing seems to make sense. There is, however, a determination to find some blessings amongst everything, something to be grateful for. How Sylvia's husbands suffering afforded an opportunity to create a purpose that helps others on their own grief journey. Do you sink or survive this new trauma that has hit? Often it is like a past memory of the Barn Dances both so enjoyed - four steps forward and four steps back as the ongoing grief is expressed. Truth dawned as a revelation hit home - there is no "perfect way to grieve". Only to discover how to accept the new way of life that is perfect for you.

Home Is a Feeling
"Home is a Feeling" is a calming, reassuring, softly illustrated book for Alzheimer's patients, persons with dementia, and persons whose current place of residence lacks that feeling of being comfortably home.

Because Alzheimer's, dementia, or even feeling unsettled in a new (or old) home rob a person of "home." Home is where a person is not lost in time, or space, or a situation that feels out of control. Home is where we feel comfortable, safe, connected, a sense of time well spent, and a sense of purpose. Home is where we are warm, well-fed, loved and loving, and most of all, understood. Besides a calming reassurance, it provides the opportunity for meaningful, shared conversation between an individual and their family, friends, or caretakers. Additionally, this simple format allows the person with Alzheimer's, dementia, or unsettled feelings to continue a favorite pass time-- flipping pages and reading through a book's pages. No mention within the story of Alzheimer's or any other illness, no mention of cognitive decline, no mention of assisted living, and no mention of Memory care.
