It's time to break up with pain. Like a bad country song, pain has been doing wrong by us for way too long. We've suffered enough and we deserve better. Pain has a "Dear John" letter coming and this book is it.Is this book promising a way to live without pain? Yes and no. We misunderstand it so we hold onto it in a way that makes it more intense, disruptive, and debilitating. Pain Rebels defy their prior conditioning about pain and embark on a powerful mission, one where it becomes their teacher, their motivator, their FRIEND. Pain holds no power over them because Pain Rebels hold the power, the power of perception?and approach. It's the healing our world needs right now.

“Feed The Need” delivers a comprehensive view of the pain that causes disruption in our personal and professional lives and offers a prescription to relieve it. As a coach, leadership training facilitator, and keynote speaker, I provide the guidance needed to change lives for the better by reducing conflict, promoting understanding and healthy communication, and improving problem solving approaches. Imagine living a life where you feel fulfilled, where what you need and what you have are the very same thing. Our world has its fair share of conflict and communication breakdowns, stress and resentment, heartaches and hopelessness. At the root of all of these things is one common thread: Pain. Where does this pain come from? Unmet needs. When we need water, we are thirsty and we will eventually die if we are not hydrated. When we need food, we are hungry and death will follow if we aren’t fed. When our physical needs aren’t met it leads to suffering and death. Our emotional needs drive our behavior and severely affect our psychological well-being, and when they aren’t met we behave in destructive and dysfunctional ways. In this groundbreaking book, you will discover how to identify, understand, and feed your core emotional needs so that you can live more harmoniously with yourself and others. "Feed The Need" will change the way you think about problems, and strengthen and empower you to solve them. Stop suffering and tolerating struggle and start celebrating and living abundantly by feeding your true hunger.

Feed The Need: Teen Edition

The world is changing at a phenomenal and unprecedented rate. Most of us feel like we can’t keep up. It’s requiring us to think in different ways and do new things to approach novel problems. Our world is screaming out for us to be powerful and highly adaptive. This "Pivot Power" is demonstrated by embracing and enacting choice over thoughts, feelings, and actions and is measured by the ease and flexibility of embracing and enacting that choice. It’s about managing new experiences, changing circumstances, fresh information, and the stress that emerges in calm and tactical ways. Stuck U. is the roadmap and the support system necessary to bring you to the major leagues of Pivot Power. If you’re like most people, the word “change” elicits fear, or at least a healthy dose of anxiety. When things are the same and predictable, we feel safer. We know what is expected of us and we can act accordingly. To considering changing anything, we require some measure of confidence and calm; knowing that things will work out okay. If you have mastery of your personal power, you will welcome change more readily. You will be a guru of change; not fearless, but courageous. Sound inviting? If you’re a company executive, this is the change manual you must distribute to your employees. How do you unstick a team? If your staff isn’t onboard, your change efforts just went out the window, along with your wallet. This book guides them to get onboard and be a catalyst for change and not the status quo. Your organizational change isn't going to happen without each individual changing. You have to invest in THEIR change process in order for them to invest in YOUR change process. In this book, you’re going to learn how to take your insights and put them into action. You’ll be poised to use all those quotes you’ve been recounting and sharing for years and actually live their truth. It’s not necessarily going to be easy. For some, it’ll come hard and suddenly. For others, it’ll be a slow and steady tortoise race. Either way, this book will provide you with the basis and the support to guide you through to the existence that has eluded you to this point, and not for your lack of effort. We just hadn’t met yet.

This is the essential manual for leaders at all levels who want to maximize their human capital by taming the work circus that comes from - and feeds - stress, drama, and isolation. It’s tough out there. When we aren’t at the office, we’re still glued to our mobile devices, ready to pounce on the next email, update, text, or phone call. We are feeling burned out, exhausted, and unappreciated. Work has become a circus, with the vast majority of people feeling overwhelmed, distrusting, and disconnected which has a direct effect on the bottom line. Some have given up hope that it’ll ever be different, pacing behind bars, failing to recognize that they are holding the key. Instead of being in charge of our destiny, we are taking a backseat and watching as “the world” takes over. This is devastating news for executives trying to reap the most from their human capital.Wake up and smell the manure, people! The circus you’re in can be tamed, but you’ve got to take hold of your chair (and sometimes your whip) to master your part then move on to the rest of the big top. This book gets you to do just that. It tackles empowerment and engagement so they aren’t just buzzwords in your human resource plan.

Before she was a passionate and accomplished consultant, speaker, coach, and author, Dr. Bridget Cooper straddled the razor’s edge between wanting to die and struggling to live. This is her story.This, however, is not your typical memoir.Not only is it an extraordinary story full of horror and hope, but it compels you to take inventory of your own little landslides – the events and circumstances that have reshaped your footing, created a new landscape, and challenged you to stay upright. She offers a proven path out of the darkness. LITTLE LANDSLIDES is:A true tale of domestic violence as told through the eyes of a child. A story about sexual assault as spoken through the voice of an innocent. A commentary on mental illness written by a girl who almost died escaping its grasp.A narrative of addiction's stranglehold on the human condition. The world seems so dark at times, so hopeless. Life offers beauty…and misery. When we hold tight to the latter, it deepens and multiplies, spreading like wildfire, creating the foundation for all human suffering. The stories we tell ourselves about what’s happened to us creates our reality. If we change our stories and how we understand them, we change our lives. The author went deep into darkness and emerged into light and she dares you to do the same, equipped with all the lessons she learned the hard way. It turns out that this book offers a little landslide of its very own.
