In this timely book, she brings together powerful case studies, eye-opening research and effective coping techniques from her anti-racist academy and award-nominated blog, Race Reflections, helping readers to: - set psychological boundaries and process trauma - protect children from racism - handle difficult race-based conversations- understand the complexities of 'Black love'- find connection, beauty and joy in the worldLiving While Black empowers you to adopt radical self-care tools that improve day-to-day wellness. It teaches you how to thrive not just survive and find hope - or even joy - in the face of racial adversity. It is also an essential anti-racist resource for allies who want to do better.Trade ReviewThe boldest book on Blackness I have read. The writing is revelatory, necessary and brilliant. I haven't felt this seen by a text before * Candice Carty-Williams, Sunday Times bestselling author of ‘Queenie’ *An unflinching examination of the daily assaults of anti-Blackness weathering Black bodies, hearts, and minds. With clarity and compassion, Guilaine Kinouani testifies to realities the mental health system has long ignored and denied. This is a must-read for all who profess to be trained in and care about healing * Robin DiAngelo, New York Times bestselling author of 'White Fragility' *Living While Black ruptures and breaks the silences around [racial] harms and is the offering of a cathartic release to speak the pain many of us may have been told is unspeakable. For those that are in need of a companion, even a friend that can support you in validating your experiences, this book is able to offer exactly that * gal-dem *Living While Black is a powerful wake-up call for Black people interested in learning about self-identity and mental well-being. It also offers important resources for white allies * Patrick Vernon OBE, co-author of '100 Great Black Britons' *A vital resource and powerful book - an unmissable read for everyone * Julia Samuel, Sunday Times bestselling author of 'This Too Shall Pass' and 'Grief Works' *An incisive and important book that will change the way you think * Nikesh Shukla, editor of 'The Good Immigrant' and author of ‘Brown Baby’ *When it comes to Guilaine Kinouani, I look forward to nothing short of brilliance. However, I couldn't have been prepared for this stunning piece of work that Guilaine has blessed myself and the world with. This will be a book that I read, recommend and refer to for years to come * Kelechi Okafor, host of ‘Say Your Mind’ podcast *Guilaine Kinouani's book both expands and strengthens current narratives on race ... There is honest, razor-sharp, and unrelenting description of, for example, the relationship between white women and black women - seldom written about and barely approached in any discourse around feminism or psychology ...There are precious stones to be discovered in these pages - materials, tools, reflections. But for me it is so much more than this ... Kinouani's searing commentary reminds us just how little black lives have mattered in the history of counselling and psychology ... A fascinating and impressive book that stands witness to what it is like to 'live while Black' * The Psychologist *Every feeling I've experienced as a Black woman navigating my way through this racist world was articulated here. Texts on race often just expose trauma. The beauty of this was she also offered solutions. This book felt like The Ancestors had enveloped me in a huge hug, whispered in my ear and gave me the strength to just keep going * Ava Vidal *This powerful and timely book is an essential read for everyone with the very real potential to save Black lives * Temi Mwale, Founder, The 4Front *Living While Black, with its radical foundations and extensive content, is groundbreaking in nature. It's not about merely surviving racism, it's about thriving in spite of it ... [it is] like validation for all that I have felt, reassurance that racial trauma is not only real but incredibly harmful, and also hope for the future. * Bad Form Review *

She was ten weeks pregnant with her sixth child. Her unborn baby became victim to the fast-spreading and highly dangerous cancer in Heather’s body that already spread to her lymph nodes.

Book SynopsisReal-life stories using the Tarot as a tool of insight and self-transformation. As Julia Gordon-Bramer reveals in profound detail, the miracle of Tarot is how the right cards show up, time and time again, to provide guidance or symbolically illustrate your story—whether you believe in the Tarot or not. In these real-life tales of Tarot wisdom, Gordon-Bramer explores the modern applications and the living wisdom of the Tarot, based on her more than 40 years’ experience as a professional Tarot reader. Sharing stories from client readings and her own spiritual journey, she shows how to intuitively, logically, and sometimes playfully glean the meaning of each card that appears and integrate its powerful spiritual lessons for deeper understanding, guidance, and personal healing. She compares reading the Tarot to dream analysis, explaining how the Major Arcana, such as The Fool, The Magician, The Lovers, or The Star, represent the key players and milestones in life, the sacred adventure from birth to death. She explains how each card tells its own story, often revealing subconscious beliefs and motivations through its colours, numbers, symbols, and pictures, yet she also reveals how it only takes a small amount of familiarity to decipher a world full of meaning in the cards. Allowing you to make the leap from an abstract understanding of the Tarot to actually working intuitively with the cards, this book shows how, when used as a life-transforming tool to awaken and tame the subconscious, the Tarot offers a way to grow your strengths, identify your weaknesses, and conquer problems as you journey through life.Trade Review“This is by far one of the best books I’ve ever read on the tarot. Julia gives readers a rare glimpse into the inner world of a professional tarot reader through entertaining stories, fascinating client case histories, and helpful exercises. Her insight and years of expertise will help you learn the symbolism contained within the tarot and how to best utilize the tarot. I highly recommend Tarot Life Lessons.” * Shelley A. Kaehr, Ph.D., author of The Goddess Discovered *“Julia Gordon-Bramer is my go-to tarot reader (affectionately, ‘my oracle’) and lifelong friend. Her insight, both profound and precise, has been a guiding light for me and many of my friends. I am excited for anyone to experience her artful wisdom, whether through this book, a reading, or her next magical offering.” * Nicholas Petricca, lead singer and founder of the band Walk the Moon *“Tarot Life Lessons is as entertaining as it is educational. If you know nothing or very little about tarot, by the time you finish the book, you’ll know a great deal. If you’re a seasoned reader, you’ll find fresh insights to expand your ‘tarot brain.’ Julia Gordon- Bramer’s book is a gem among tarot books.” * Tero Goldenhill, author and Jungian tarot guide *“As you enter the private journals of Julia Gordon-Bramer, a seasoned tarot card reader, prepare for a transformative journey. This captivating book might challenge your perceptions but will leave a lasting impact on your life. Open yourself and allow these intimate narratives and experiences to reflect the profound guidance of tarot on your personal path!” * Dr. Harmony, author of Twin Flame Code Breaker *“Tarot Life Lessons weaves together Julia Gordon-Bramer’s extensive experience as a tarot reader and her personal Fool’s Journey. This combination provides a unique learning tool unlike any other tarot book I have read. Although I have been using tarot cards for many years, I found myself diving deeper into the meaning of the Major Arcana cards and expanding my knowledge with each story she shares.” * Nadine Gordon-Taylor, creator of Crystal Clear Oracle *“Julia Gordon-Bramer highlights the major cards of the tarot deck and explains them in a most entertaining way via stories about clients. It’s part memoir with a lot of spilled tea about people and their dreams, disasters, and enlightening tidbits about tarot, where it came from, and how it uses religious references. A fun, fast read!” * Susan McBride, USA Today bestselling author of Blue Blood *“This isn’t just a well-crafted prose journey but also a discerning deconstruction of prevalent misconceptions like the tarot being solely about predicting the future. It unveils the tarot’s true capacity to facilitate a profound journey into the subconscious, thereby equipping readers to better navigate the ebb and flow of life’s challenges.” * Shai Tubali, author of Unlocking the 7 Secret Powers of the Heart *“Gordon-Bramer connects the multifaceted meaning of the Major Arcana to engaging examples that embody each card’s unique energies. Each timeless archetype comes to life in stories gleaned from her many readings with clients over decades as a professional reader.” * Wendy Van Allen, author of Relighting the Cauldron *“Julia Gordon-Bramer has been an exciting guest, talking tarot and reading her tarot cards live on various radio shows I’ve hosted for many years. I have been continually surprised by her accuracy and wisdom!” * Tony Colombo, program director at NewsTalkSTL 101.9 FM *Table of ContentsBUT FIRST . . .

Book SynopsisHow our desire to stamp out hypocrisy is backfiring—and how learning to target our criticisms better can improve our politics, business, and personal relationships.In our increasingly distrusting and polarized nation, accusations of hypocrisy are everywhere. But the strange truth is that our attempts to stamp out hypocrisy often backfire, creating what Michael Hallsworth calls The Hypocrisy Trap. In this groundbreaking book, he shows how our relentless drive to expose inconsistency between words and deeds can actually breed more hypocrisy or, worse, cynicism that corrodes democracy itself.Through engaging stories and original research, Hallsworth shows that not all hypocrisy is equal. While some forms genuinely destroy trust and create harm, others reflect the inevitable compromises of human nature and complex societies. The Hypocrisy Trap offers practical solutions: ways to increase our own consistency, navigate accusations wisely, and change how we judge others’ actions. Hallsworth shows vividly that we can improve our politics, businesses, and personal relationships if we rethink hypocrisy—soon.

Book SynopsisA guide to emotional healing and living a more self-accepting life by learning to love oneself. Behind many of our problems lies an often ignored factor: we don’t like ourselves very much. We are sufferers of self-hatred. We tell ourselves the meanest things. It’s because of self-hatred that we tend to neglect our potential at work and get entangled in unfulfilling relationships, that we lack confidence in our social lives and suffer from anxiety and despair. This is a book that, with immense compassion and fellow feeling, investigates the phenomenon of self-hatred while giving pragmatic advice on how to overcome it. It asks where the feeling comes from, what it makes us do and how we might become kinder and more compassionate towards ourselves. We have probably spent far too much of our lives disliking ourselves and attacking everything we say, do or feel, while not even realising what we’re up to. It’s time to overcome our masochism and move towards a more self-forgiving and accepting stance. On Self-Hatred is a guide to the more compassionate and gentle relationship we should have had with ourselves from the start, and can all achieve now.

In these troubled times, there is more interest than ever for what is truly important in life: happiness, hope and love. What does science teach us today? Are we still allowed to strive towards happiness? And how do we do that?
