  Unpacks the problems and privileges of pursuing a career of passion by exploring work inside craft breweries. 
    
  As workers attempt new modes of employment in the era of the Great Resignation, they face a labor landscape that is increasingly uncertain and stubbornly unequal. With Handcrafted Careers, sociologist Eli Revelle Yano Wilson dives headfirst into the everyday lives of workers in the craft beer industry to address key questions facing American workers today: about what makes a good career, who gets to have one, and how careers progress without established models. 
    
  Wilson argues that what ends up contributing to divergent career paths in craft beer is a complex interplay of social connections, personal tastes, and cultural ideas, as well as exclusionary industry structures. The culture of work in craft beer is based around “bearded white guy” ideals that are gendered and racialized in ways that limit the advancement of women and people of color. A fresh perspective on niche industries, Handcrafted Careers offers sharp insights into how people navigate worlds of work that promote ideas of authenticity and passion-filled careers even amid instability. 
    
  "An excellent read and maybe even a first step or two for those thinking a career in beverages is for them. Some people like getting their feet wet at work, and coming home from work smelling like a brewery isn’t a bad thing anymore!"—Culinaire Magazine

  How to find guilt-free time for what you really want to do, and why it matters  
  Do you feel like you’re always busy, even as your to-do list continues to grow?Do you think you can’t keep up as it is, let alone add another thing to your plate?  
  An award-winning journalist, avid reader and new mom, Karma Brown dreamed of writing her first novel. But between diapers and tight deadlines, how could she? Like so many of us, she felt stretched taut and hyper-scheduled, her time a commodity over which she had lost control. For Brown, the answer to this problem was to rise earlier every day and use that time to write. Although she experienced missteps along the way, after committing to her alarm clock and an online community of early risers, she completed a debut novel that became a national bestseller. 
  In The 4% Fix, Karma Brown reveals the latest research about time management and goal-setting and shares strategies that have worked for her as well as for others. Refreshingly, her jargon-free approach doesn’t include time-tracking spreadsheets, tips on how to squeeze in yoga exercises while cooking dinner, or methods that add bulk to those never-ending lists.  
  How will you use this one hour—only 4% of your day—to change your life?

  The Zen of Stress Relief -...

  Friedrich Kastner Weismann

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  In the bustling heart of Vienna, where the aroma of coffee mingles with the hurried footsteps of commuters rushing to their next appointment, I first encountered the profound stillness that would forever change my understanding of stress and its antidote. It was during a particularly overwhelming period of my life, when the demands of modern existence seemed to press upon me from all directions like an unrelenting tide, that I stumbled upon a small meditation center tucked away in the city's historic district. 
  The irony was not lost on me that in seeking refuge from the chaos of Western life, I would find myself drawn to practices that had been cultivated for millennia in the mountains of Tibet, the gardens of Japan, and the ancient temples of China. This began my journey into what I have come to understand as the essential marriage between Eastern wisdom and Western practicality, a union that offers profound relief from the unique stresses of our contemporary world. 
  The modern Western mind, conditioned by centuries of Cartesian dualism and scientific rationalism, approaches problems with a fundamentally different perspective than its Eastern counterpart. Where Western thought seeks to analyze, categorize, and solve, Eastern philosophy invites us to observe, accept, and transcend. This fundamental difference is not a weakness to be overcome but rather a strength to be harnessed, for it is precisely this analytical nature that allows us to understand and integrate ancient practices in ways that are both meaningful and sustainable within our cultural context.

  The End of Average - How We...

  Todd Rose

  Are you above average? Is your child an A student? Is your employee an introvert or an extrovert? Every day we are measured against the yardstick of averages, judged according to how closely we come to it or how far we deviate from it. 
  The assumption that metrics comparing us to an average—like GPAs, personality test results, and performance review ratings—reveal something meaningful about our potential is so ingrained in our consciousness that we don’t even question it. That assumption, says Harvard’s Todd Rose, is spectacularly—and scientifically—wrong. 
  In The End of Average, Rose, a rising star in the new field of the science of the individual shows that no one is average. Not you. Not your kids. Not your employees. This isn’t hollow sloganeering—it’s a mathematical fact with enormous practical consequences. But while we know people learn and develop in distinctive ways, these unique patterns of behaviors are lost in our schools and businesses which have been designed around the mythical “average person.” This average-size-fits-all model ignores our differences and fails at recognizing talent. It’s time to change it. 
  Weaving science, history, and his personal experiences as a high school dropout, Rose offers a powerful alternative to understanding individuals through averages: the three principles of individuality. The jaggedness principle (talent is always jagged), the context principle (traits are a myth), and the pathways principle (we all walk the road less traveled) help us understand our true uniqueness—and that of others—and how to take full advantage of individuality to gain an edge in life. 
  Read this powerful manifesto in the ranks of Drive, Quiet, and Mindset—and you won’t see averages or talent in the same way again.

  Two leaders in the growing field of impact investing define this  emerging industry for participants on all sides of the funding  equation (investors, funders and social entrepreneurs), showcasing  compelling examples of success as well as the potential to expand  the field to address the most critical social and  environmental issues of our day on a scale never seen before.   This will be the first book to chart the catalytic path of this  new industry, explaining how it is already and can be a positive  disruptive force. It will show how impact investing is a  transformational vehicle for delivering blended value  throughout the investment spectrum giving a single name to a set of  activities previously siloed in enclaves revealing how they  are linked within what is becoming a new field of investing. The  authors will show how various pioneers are already undertaking  impact investments for multiple returns, reveal the power of this  new industry and its wide-ranging applications as well as  entrepreneurial opportunities it offers.  The breakthrough of this book is that it does not take a  normative approach to argue how investors should behave like  an investment guide might. Instead, it sheds light on how  entrepreneurial people and institutions are already offering  an integrated alternative. Building on compelling examples, the  book will also offer a clear guide to how readers can support the  industrys growth and development.
