  In an era in which "resistance" has become tokenized, popular Indigenous author Kaitlin Curtice reclaims it as a basic human calling. Resistance is for every human who longs to see their neighbors' holistic flourishing. We each have a role to play in the world right where we are, and our everyday acts of resistance hold us all together. 
   
   
   
  Curtice shows that we can learn to practice embodied ways of belonging and connection to ourselves and one another through everyday practices, such as getting more in touch with our bodies, resting, and remembering our ancestors. She explores four "realms of resistance"—the personal, the communal, the ancestral, and the integral—and shows how these realms overlap and why all are needed for our liberation. Listeners will be empowered to seek wholeness in whatever spheres of influence they inhabit.

  As a literary agent, Joy Eggerichs Reed sees book proposals that, unfortunately, she writes off after about sixty seconds of skimming. 
  While that may sound harsh, there are specific things she looks for that show her immediately how seriously a writer takes their goals of getting published. 
  Even though the first steps of writing and figuring out how to publish a book can feel daunting, this book will not only give you everything you need for an incredible proposal, but demystify the publishing process, tell you how to market yourself authentically (and enjoyably), and cheer you on with practical next steps as you decide which publishing route is best for you. 
  And, Joy wants to make this whole process FUN. 
  This is an upbeat 30-day guide with easy to follow examples, stories, and funny illustrations (that you're more than welcome to color in because your brain will need a break), as well as insider knowledge about how to catch an agent's eye, how to land your dream endorsement and how to wildly increase your chances of getting a book deal. 
  Non-fiction, memoir, or novel—this book will help authors (especially first-timers) who have questions and feel alone in the writing process. Let Joy be your (slightly aggressive) friend who will encourage you, tell you what to do, and leave you feeling oh-so-confident because of all the progress you've made by day 30. If you let this book guide you, you will close the last page, and involuntarily shout, "WOW, I did that!" 
  You’ll also get to know way more about Joy’s personal life than you probably wanted

  The Untold Magellan Story Second...

  CHARLES AVILA

  The Untold Magellan Story: Second Edition is not a work of fiction—it's a gripping journey through real history. In a bold and imaginative narrative, acclaimed historian Charles Avila brings the legendary Ferdinand Magellan across the Great Divide to speak directly to you, offering personal insights into his life, unprecedented achievements, and hard-earned reflections from five centuries past. 
  Through Avila’s masterful storytelling, Magellan recounts the epic voyage that changed the world: the first circumnavigation of the globe, the discovery of the strait that bears his name, his awe at the Magellanic Clouds, his regret over the naming of an island, and his unintended role in the birth of a nation. 
  This second edition goes further, revisiting the colonial legacy left in the wake of European expansion. In a striking historical turn, even Pope Francis—before his passing—challenged the long-held doctrine of the “right of discovery,” a decree once issued by Pope Alexander VI. Was Magellan’s arrival in the Philippines a heroic feat or an immoral act of imperialism? 
  With fresh insights and provocative questions, this book invites you to rethink history through the eyes of the man who helped shape it. Read the story. Or better yet—listen as Magellan tells it himself.

  Hidden behind the veils of ancient Egypt and whispered through the halls of esoteric schools, The Kybalion is a concise yet profound guide to the timeless principles said to govern all existence. First published anonymously in 1908, this small volume has shaped generations of mystics, philosophers, and seekers—yet its origin remains shrouded in mystery. 
  Presented through the cryptic voice of “The Three Initiates,” The Kybalion unveils seven Hermetic Principles—Mentalism, Correspondence, Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause and Effect, and Gender. These principles form a blueprint of how reality functions at every level, from the cosmic to the personal. They offer a way to understand the forces that shape thought, influence emotion, and guide the unseen currents of destiny. 
  Rather than dogma or doctrine, this work offers a practical metaphysical framework—one that invites the reader to explore the nature of mind, master inner states, and align with the universal patterns that weave through all life. Its teachings resonate across spiritual traditions, from alchemy and Kabbalah to modern psychology and self-transformation. 
  Whether you’re drawn to Hermetic philosophy, seeking deeper self-knowledge, or exploring the roots of Western esotericism, The Kybalion stands as a rare key: 
   a map for decoding the universe—and yourself.
