    Exploring why school no longer feels essential for everyone-and how educators can reignite that engagement, meaning and make it impossible to miss again.
    Making School Unmissable explores a pressing challenge in modern education: too many students, parents and even staff no longer see school as compelling or even interesting. Despite the transformative power of education, rising absenteeism, disengaged students and families and a stressed workforce reveal a disconnect that threatens learning, development and community. Drawing on research, case studies and real-world insights, this book examines why school can too often feel 'missable'and how that perception can be reversed.
    The authors introduce a framework built around five essential senses: Purpose, Belonging, Success, Empowerment and Adventure. These senses provide the foundation for an education that is engaging, inclusive and meaningful not only preparing learners for the future but making school fulfilling in the present. Through practical strategies, exercises and thought-provoking questions, educators are invited to reflect on their own settings and explore how to foster these senses for students, staff and families alike.
    From school leaders to classroom teachers, this book offers a flexible approach to developing a culture where school is not just compulsory, but compelling. Optimistic and actionable, it equips educators with the tools and mindset to make every school day count, ensuring that learning is experienced as vibrant, relevant and unmissable.
    A must-read for teachers and school leaders in any setting.

  • 45 ADHD Kitchen Declutter Rules - Simple Systems to Stop Losing Everything and Cook Without the Chaos - cover

    45 ADHD Kitchen Declutter Rules...

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. You picked up this book because you have burned the rice again, because you bought a fourth jar of cumin that was hiding behind three others, and because the kitchen that was supposed to feed your family has become the room that defeats you every single day. You have been told that you just need to try harder, and you have concluded that something is wrong with you. You have watched organizing videos that made you feel worse, and you have bought containers that became one more pile. Whatever brought you here, you share a belief this book was written to honor: that your kitchen is not failing because you are broken, but because it was never built for your brain. 
     
    This is not a weekend purge program, and it is not a magazine-ready makeover, and it is not a set of laws you will break and then feel guilty about. What you actually need is a system that treats your brain as a partner, one that moves the remembering out of your head and into the room, and the pages that follow give you exactly that: 45 rules built for the ADHD brain, each one short, visible, and designed to run forever instead of once. You will start with 1 cabinet and 1 timer, and the smallness is the point. 
     
    Inside, you'll discover: 
    • Zones that stop the search, so every task has a home base 
    • The timer rule that ends burned food and forgotten pots 
    • Containers that cap the chaos and stop the duplicate purchases 
    • The counter budget that protects your prep surface 
    • How the kitchen tornado works, and how to break the cycle 
     
    This book will not ask you to be someone else, and it will not demand a heroic purge you cannot sustain. What it will do is rebuild your kitchen so that it works on Tuesday, not just in the after-photo, and give you back the $300 a month the chaos was quietly draining from your wallet. If you are tired of losing everything and cooking without a plan, the 45 rules are the lever, and your brain was never the problem.

    The Overweight Mind and Body is a self-help guide to understanding the psychological issues that lead to overeating and weight gain. 
     
     
     
    The book enables the listener to discover the psychological drives that lead to unwanted weight and to find ways of meeting those drives other than with food. It introduces a simple, user-friendly theory of Transactional Analysis to promote weight-related self-awareness. She understands that, for many, carrying extra weight is emotionally and physically painful and so gently encourages listeners to explore at their own level. She uses case studies to demonstrate the many unconscious influences on one's eating and how, when people discover and resolve these influences, they no longer need extra food. Hearing them shows that "you are not alone." 
     
     
     
    This book will also be of interest to, and a useful guide for, practitioners in the caring professions who work with clients struggling with eating and overweight.

    The Brain Savers - How a Scrappy...

    A FULL CAST PERFORMANCE, FEATURING HOLLYWOOD ACTORS, SOUND EFFECTS, AND AN ORIGINAL SCORE! 
    From the authors of the New York Times bestseller, The Barefoot Spirit, and the Audie Award finalist, genre-bending audiobook of the same name, comes a story of vision and invention, failure and setbacks, mistakes and lessons. Business Audio Theatre presents a Sherwood Players Production, The Brain Savers, the true story of how a scrappy startup used technology to put the humanity of patients first and ended up changing medicine forever. 
    Amid the internet boom of the mid-2000s, a band of entrepreneurs stood at the intersection of medicine, technology, and business. They saw a solution to the crucial problems of emergency care, which was too often handicapped by underfunding, overscheduled specialists, archaic practices, and onerous equipment. Through pioneering telemedicine and new inventions like the portable CT scanner, the founders of Specialists on Call (S.O.C.) did more than just make emergency care better, faster, and more humane; they brought health care, which is often described as the slowest industry in America to change, into the 21st Century.   
    This is Dr. Colin McDonald’s story of how S.O.C. came to be. After leaving a cushy teaching position at Harvard, it took years of pursuing a single objective, then changing on a dime, to create S.O.C. In the end, what he created was a system that saved lives—and continues to save lives today. 
    Some of these hard-learned lessons are complex, while others are so timeless they almost sound cliché (“trust your vision and your moral compass, change when you must, just keep going”), but they are far from cliché for the founders of S.O.C. Theirs is a story of people with imagination and drive who wanted to make the world better, who trusted their ideas and each other, and who, despite everything, kept on going!
