Parenting Beyond Power: How to Use Connection and Collaboration to Transform Your Family -- and the
"I'm in love with this book! It illuminates the forces that make parenting so difficult, and helps us develop better relationships with our kids-and ourselves." -Hunter Clarke-Fields, MSAE, author of Raising Good Humans Parenting is hard. But when we replace conventional parent-child power dynamics with collaboration, family life gets easier today-and we create a better world for all of us in the future. When we see our children stalling, resisting, having tantrums, using mean words, and hitting, we want to just make it stop. But conventional discipline methods like time-outs, countdowns, and "consequences" teach children that it's OK for more powerful people to control others-a lesson they take out into the world. This is how we learned White supremacy, patriarchy, and capitalism from our parents-and we will replicate this with our children unless we make a different choice. Research-based parenting educator Jen Lumanlan offers a simple yet revolutionary framework for rethinking our relationships with children. This new approach helps us to look beneath challenging behaviors to find and meet children's needs, and ours too-perhaps for the first time in our lives. It involves empathetic listening, understanding feelings and underlying needs, and problem-solving with our children to find solutions to conflicts that work for everyone. Family life becomes radically easier in the short term because behavior problems tend to melt away. In the long term, we'll raise children who confidently advocate for themselves and treat others with profound respect. Includes sample scripts, flowcharts, and resources to help parents learn and implement this new approach. * This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF of charts and resources from the book.

The Power of Positive Fishing: A Story of Friendship and the Quest for Happiness
Michael Tougias and Adam Gamble had good lives: married with two children each, nice homes in the suburbs, jobs that paid the bills, and frequent fishing trips out on the ocean. But those comfortable lives had cracks in them and soon they found themselves hit by a rogue wave of divorce, financial hardship, addiction, and career upheaval. What kept them going—and helped them navigate the rough waters of middle age—was fishing and friendship. Alone on the ocean they not only learned some of the successful secrets of striped bass fishing, but they were also brutally honest in their advice for each other. They began to see their time spent on Adam’s boat, the Scout, as a way to explore new ways of thinking and dreaming big. The two not only discovered ways forward but achieved goals far beyond what they thought possible.

Publisher’s Note: Two years ago, when we published Pranab Raha’s collection of essays ‘Akopat’, we promised the readers that we will bring more of his works in the future. Hence, we are pleased to bring you his second published audiobook ‘Charminar’. ‘Charminar’ is a collection of four short and long stories by the author that are basically satirical in nature. In this book, he has brought out the subtle aspects of human character in a humorous approach. Like all his writings, these stories too, have an unspoken hidden message, that a sophisticated reader would have no difficulty in grasping. We hope that ‘Charminar’, like the author’s first book ‘Akopat’ published by us will be well received by the readers. Author’s Note: The intersection of time and technology has brought about some changes in the way people consume literature. Recognizing this change, I have published an audiobook of four stories, embracing this transformation. However, for enthusiastic readers, the printed hard copy of the book will also be made available very soon. Since the four stories are narrated by four different narrators in distinct styles, the stories do not possess the same qualities in all aspects. Nevertheless, if the stories provide an enjoyable listening experience, then the efforts and contributions of those involved in this endeavour, although somewhat limited, will be worthwhile.
