    Book Synopsis"This inspiring collection makes a strong case for how women can design their work lives to meet both personal and professional needs.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review Womentality: Thirteen Empowering Stories by Everyday Women Who Said Goodbye to the Workplace and Hello to Their Lives is a collection of powerful, personal essays from enterprising women around the world who came to the same realization: work shouldn’t have to be painful and demeaning. Armed with an internet connection and plenty of creativity and ingenuity, they prove that it is possible to redefine the nine-to-five work paradigm and create a flourishing career that is flexible and fulfilling outside the corporate structure. The thirteen women—from diverse countries such as Uganda, Venezuela, Poland, Palestine, and the Philippines—approach independent work in different ways, but are all motivated by the same impulses—to escape the drudgery of office life, to have control of their time, and to enjoy the freedom of working for themselves. Importantly, many discover that—outside of the office—it is possible to triumph over global pay disparities that favor men. Womentality is not a book about people who do not work—on the contrary, these women work hard and their stories illustrate how they overcame challenges to achieve their goals—whether they sought freedom to travel, to spend more time with the family, escape demeaning office politics, or simply to control their career. The essays in Womentality prove that a life of independence is not reserved for elite, American workers. It is possible for anyone. As the women who contributed to Womentality can attest: escaping the nine-to-five life isn’t easy—it takes guts and persistence—but it’s absolutely worthwhile.Trade Review"Provides provocative perspective on gender and work." —Entertainment Weekly's Literary Gift Guide: The 30 best holiday books of the Year "Wildermuth, a freelance writer and travel enthusiast, offers up a stellar collection of stories from women around the globe who bucked nine-to-five jobs to go into business for themselves. . . . This inspiring collection makes a strong case for how women can design their work lives to meet both personal and professional needs.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “In the future, people will be able to work from any location, at any time, and live life completely on their own terms. What if the future is now? [Erin] Wildermuth lets thirteen women who found success as freelancers tell their encouraging stories here. . . . Striking out on your own can seem imposing, but women seeking a professional change may find a biography that resonates in this book.” —Booklist “With only two of the stories based in the United States, these essays hold a universal message that self-employment generally leads to a more enriching work life. . . . Womentality helps to make self-employment seem more attainable and can serve as a useful reference for anyone considering making a career change to work for themselves.” —Rain Taxi "Lit Hit: Indie Books That’ll Blow You Away!" “Get out your pen and paper and prepare to take notes on Erin Wildermuth’s short volume Womentality, a collection of stories from thirteen women who abandoned the traditional workplace and reclaimed the reins to their lives.” —Foreword Reviews "As informatively thoughtful as it is inspiring and inspirational, Womentality is a unique and unreservedly recommended addition to community, college, and university library Contemporary Women's Issues collections.” —Midwest Book Review “Women are often expected to sacrifice for and adapt to a world that seems designed around the needs of someone else. In Womentality, Erin Wildermuth has collected essays that show how the sometimes-maligned "gig economy" has empowered women, giving them choice and control through self-employment. The essays demonstrate that this is not an option only for women in rich Western countries, but a universal opportunity. Breaking away from the traditional role of an employee is instrumental even—maybe especially—in countries where women fight discrimination and poverty.” —Janet Bufton, Co-founder and Program Coordinator, Institute for Liberal Studies, Ottawa, Canada “Womentality's topic is so important.It is eye-opening and empowering to read about these women harnessing technology to take charge of their careers and their lives. They show us possibilities for women around the world and for ourselves.” —Jessica Bacal, M.F.A., Ed.D., Director, Smith College Narratives Project; Editor, Mistakes I Made at Work "In Womentality, editor Erin Wildermuth calls attention to a burgeoning trend for workplace independence with essays from 13 women who’ve all said, 'Enough is enough!' to their jobs. These are not professional writers—they are nurses, accountants, teachers and IT specialists, who speak plain and write with passion, whether they’ve given up a long commute or are fleeing from a failing economy. The book progresses from accounts of the initial “aha” moment to step-by-step advice on how to forge self-employment without much more than pluck and a strong internet connection. Their courage is inspiring." —Karen Hildebrand, former HR director; author, Crossing Pleasure Avenue "I very much enjoyed reading this collection of essays about women who took a risk and left their 9-5 workplace for independent work. These essays are particularly relevant in the #MeToo Era, where women are more empowered than ever to stand up for themselves. Even though each essay recounts a unique story from women across the globe, I found myself strongly identifying with the frustrations and setbacks they faced in the workplace. This collection left me inspired by their courage and full of ideas on how to reclaim power in my own professional life." —Lisa Gailloud, Community OrganizerTable of ContentsForeword Erin Wildermuth, editor, United States Chapter One: My Escape from the Rat Race Lauren Gerber, South Africa Chapter Two: The Fear and the Farm Emily Schwartz, United States Chapter Three: Finding and Sharing Freelancing Yanique P.

    Book SynopsisBestselling author and TEDx speaker Jordan Gross's What Happens in Tomorrow World? offers a poignant, relatable, and necessary parable for navigating uncertainty. What Happens in Tomorrow World? tells the story of Opti, Pessi, Chill, and Sage—four prizes found in a traditional arcade claw machine game, and what happens when one special player, Cayla "Catch" Alltoys, plays their game. As Catch maneuvers the claw over, down, and around them, the four prizes face their own crisis—the possibility of what will happen when they are removed from their safe environment and thrust into the unknown "real" world. Each prize reacts in one of the four typical responses most people have to facing uncertain situations. And it is through those reactions, and subsequent actions, that they—and we—learn how our own responses to uncertainty can either help or harm ourselves, those around us, and society as a whole. An urgently needed guide for managing the anxiety and ambiguity in our daily lives, this book will help readers thrive in challenging situations. Through this memorable story, you'll learn: • How to embrace uncertainty in all parts of life • Why no single response to uncertainty works for every situation • How various personality types typically respond differently to uncertainty • Why it's crucial to resist responding negatively to uncertainty • Why it's important to take action, no matter how uncertain you feel In the spirit of Spencer Johnson's Who Moved My Cheese? presents a modern, unique, and useful toolbox for confronting and managing the overwhelming amount of uncertainty we face every day.Trade Review“A fun to read, delightful, and most definitely wisdom-filled story! Once I began . . . just couldn’t put it down. So many wonderful life lessons, including mentorship that might just be some of the most profound I’ve ever read.”—Bob Burg, coauthor of the Go-Giver series“If you're looking for an empowering, purposeful, and heartwarming read, you'll love this story . . . The four friends—Sage, Opti, Pessi, and Chill—helped me better understand my own behavior during challenging times. You'll relearn some fundamental lessons and discover how to deal with uncertainties—no matter how unexpected they are.”—Sinem Günel, entrepreneur, mentor, and fifteen-time top writer on Medium.com“What Happens in Tomorrow World is a creative, entertaining, and engaging fable that teaches you how to inspire each other and work together even when there is a gap in perspectives and opinions. I encourage you to savor each chapter, examine yourself, adhere to Sage’s wisdom, and become your very best right where you are.”—David Cottrell, author of Monday Morning Leadership and Quit Drifting, Lift the Fog, and Get Lucky“A delightful parable with an important lesson for us all: ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen. If I win, I win. If I lose, I lose. But, no matter what, I learn, I learn.’ Life is about learning, and we don’t always win; it’s the journey that matters.” —Chester Elton, bestselling coauthor of The Carrot Principle and Leading with Gratitude and The Apostle of Appreciation

    Book SynopsisYou Are a Badass meets Grit in this powerhouse guide to overcoming your fear and finding the confidence within—from Christie’s ambassador and author of the “insightful, inspiring” (New York Journal of Books) The Most Powerful Woman in the Room Is You. How many times in your life have you felt completely, unshakably confident? Are you walking into every room with shoulders back feeling like you own the room? Or is it more like once a week? Or never at all? The uncertainty of the last several years has tested all of us no matter how confident we are in life. It’s not surprising that so many of us don’t remember how to listen to—and trust—our own instincts anymore. How do we find confidence? Or if we once had it, how do we get it back? In this actionable guide from someone who “knows how to get the attention of a room immediately” (Martha Stewart), you will gain the skills to become the most confident version of yourself. From guidance on how to persist when all you want to do is give up, to slamming imposter syndrome, to building up the courage to leave your comfort zone, Lydia Fenet offers case studies, insights, and advice to encourage everyone to take control and become the architect of their own life.
