Money—Is it the Last Taboo? 
 Today people tweet about everything from health to sex to what they had for dinner last night. Reality shows and social media invite us to share intimate and embarrassing secrets. So why is the topic of money still taboo? 
 Can We Talk? 
 Let’s Talk About Money: The Girlfriends’ Guide to Protecting Her ASSets changes all that. Frank and personable, it’s the first book of its kind to prepare women for the most important financial discussions in their lives. Work, marriage, divorce, retirement, parents, kids—all are complicated enough without bringing money into the picture. But we can’t afford to avoid the big questions: Am I saving enough? Should I sign a prenup—or get him to sign one? Can I get a raise? How do I talk to my parents about their estate? 
 Whatever the topic, the smart woman comes to the table empowered with insight and information. And that’s exactly what she’ll find in Let’s Talk About Money: The Girlfriends’ Guide to Protecting Her ASSets. 
 Praise for Let’s Talk About Money: 
 "This book is a must read for any woman who has any fear, doubt, or confusion when it comes to money (which is really all of us.) It will give you the knowledge and strength to speak up about financial topics that hugely impact the quality of your life." — Kate Northrup, bestselling author of Money: A Love Story 
 "From her delightful anecdotes to her practical advice, Janice Goldman shows women that there’s no reason to be afraid of conversations about money. Let’s Talk about Money is filled with valuable information that provides financial questions to ask while giving women the courage to ask them. This useful resource is a must-read for women of all ages." — Barbara Stanny, author of Prince Charming Isn’t Coming: How Women Get Smart About Money 
 "Janice has written an amazing book with practical, actionable advice for women at every life stage. From student loans and landing that first job to marriage, elder care, retirement and estate planning, this book covers it all. Janice has many years of experience as a financial advisor and has helped hundreds of women reach their financial goals. She has a passion for helping women achieve their professional and financial dreams. She also helps women to negotiate for what they deserve instead of settling for what they are offered, which is one of the most valuable skills a person can possess. I recommend this book to any woman who has a desire to protect and grow her assets." — Renée Suzanne, Relationship Coach

Time Warrior is a revolutionary, non-linear approach to dealing with time, as bold as it is fresh and new. What is non-linear time management?Non-linear time management is a commitment to action in the present moment. It's looking at a task and choosing NOW or “not now.” If it's not now, it's got to be NEVER, or placed in a time capsule that has a spot on the calendar and therefore out of the mind.The mind must remain clear and empty of all future considerations.In non-linear time management there is no line extending from my mind into the future. No tapeworm of unfinished business coming out of my body.Non-linear time management is best expressed by Elvis Presley when he sings, “It's now or never, come hold me tight.”The old-fashioned time management programs had a huge, burdensome focus on the future. The line of tasks stretched out forever into the future. It was fear-based and it was overwhelming to have so much of a future to carry around with you.It resulted in massive, pathological procrastination. Everything got put off in the name of perfectionism. Nothing was bold or reckless anymore. Therefore there wasn't much astonishing success happening for the world-weary practitioner.But when Chandler teaches people to go non-linear, a strange thing happens. New life and energy come in. When they open their emails they don't get to save them for later. They have to deal with them if they open them. Like little attackers in a computer game, there is no longer anywhere to hide. Life becomes a great game and everything is handled right now on the spot.All fear comes from picturing the future. Putting things off increases that fear. Soon we are nothing but heavy minds weighing down on weary brains. Too much future will do that.Only a warrior's approach will solve this. A warrior takes his sword to the future. A warrior also takes his sword to all circumstances that don't allow him to fully focus.Chandler is a coach by profession, and when he works with a client who is “overwhelmed” with too much to do and not enough time to do it he will often ask them to give him an example of one of the things they are burdened by every time they think about it. The client will give him an example and they will do that thing right now. The client is amazed. The only thing missing in this client's life was a bias for action.Most people think too much. Then they compound that problem by studying the feelings that come up for them as a result of that thinking.All this time that they spend thinking and feeling they could have been taking action. In a non-linear way. Linear time starts with your birth and ends (at the end of the line) with your death. Along that long linear line it's just one damn thing after another. Then the lights go out. What was the point?Non-linear time management stops all that weary nonsensical treading on the road to one's destiny.Rather than inching along horizontally you must simply rise up. Your life can now become vertical. Now you don't postpone challenges, you rise to them. You become a warrior. And it works.How, exactly, does it work? This book will show you exactly how it works.

In his liveliest and most entertaining book to date, Steve Chandler boldly takes on the entitled victim mindset with a series of warrior principles and stories to fire up even the most cynical soul.

Personality and Growth: A Humanistic Psychologist in the Classroom

In the winter of 1963-'64, American psychologist Abraham H. Maslow taught "Experiential Approaches to Personality" at Brandeis University. An exercise in experiential learning, the course explored ways to recover neglected and often repressed aspects of personality and become aware of the unconscious and preconscious operating within the psyche. In practice, Maslow's unconventional class became a remarkably stimulating blend of lectures and far-reaching discussions that often reflected the conflicting viewpoints and tumultuous events of an America on the cusp of major social changes. Maslow encouraged students to think for themselves, to engage with and challenge his views and their own, and to accept the mantle of responsibility that life thrusts upon us all.
Now, for the first time, readers can take their own front-row seat in this groundbreaking course. Personality &amp; Growth: A Humanistic Psychologist in the Classroom contains the transcribed recordings of Maslow's remarkable work with his students. With a contextualizing introduction by Maslow's graduate student assistant, annotations, and an extensive bibliography of the works discussed in class, Personality &amp; Growth is a rich resource for psychologists, students, and anyone interested in the "farther reaches of human nature." What shines throughout these compelling transcripts is a unique picture of "Abe" Maslow: teacher, psychologist, scientist and human being--a creative and compassionate thinker possessing a unique and lively genius.
