Sinopse

Better Man describes one man's journey through romantic relationships.  The author navigates college, graduate school, and then present day as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor.  This book is a story about love, heartbreak, and the difficult lessons learned while traveling the treacherous road of dating.  Striving to become a better man, the author learns about his own values, what he's looking for in a partner, and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is run.  Getting through break-ups, navigating partners with differing values, and having the realization that just because sparks fly when you meet doesn’t always mean it’s meant to be – these are just a few of the harder truths the author learns along the way.  Better Man is not a better-than-revenge book, geared towards making fun of exes or blaming the innocent.  It’s a first-hand account of three major relationships, told through the eyes of the author as he experienced them.  There’s a shift in perspective from one’s early 20’s into their mid-30’s, and realizations are made…past experiences are seen with a newly discovered clarity. 
 
As the author gets further in his study of psychology and gains a greater understanding of things like communication and what it means for a relationship to be ‘healthy’, his relationships continue to grow increasingly toxic.  Will he throw in the towel and simply decide it’s best to assume he’s had his last kiss?  Or dust himself off and begin again?  If this was a movie, should it end like a fairytale or something more sad…beautiful…tragic?  Will the author end up healing from his past relationships and become the better man he set out to be?  Or be forever haunted? 
 
Let’s hope there’s a hopeless ‘new’ romantic on the other side of the door…so to speak…now...on to the story of us…

    Alice Taylor takes a look back at the well-used schoolbooks she used in her youth in the 1940s and 1950s. Flicking through the pages of the books and recalling poetry and prose she learned at school, Alice reminisces about these texts, how she related to them and how they integrated with her life on the farm and in the village.
    In her warm, wise way, Alice reflects on poems and stories on topics ranging from birds, trees and nature to fairy tales and legends, and ties them in with her own knowledge and memory of traditional country life.
    Containing the text of the poems that readers will remember from their own school days, and evocatively illustrated with photographs of the school books and Alice's notes on them, as well as nature, flora, fauna and objects associated with schools of old, this is a reminder of childhood days and a treasure trove of memory.

    “Kyle Adams’ book contains valuable lessons for leaders in all walks of life. There is so much more to be gained from basketball than money, glory, or even scholarships. Discarding the Mask is a blueprint on how to fully realize these benefits and uplift our communities.” 
    Jesse Washington, co-author of I Came as a Shadow, the autobiography of John Thompson. 
    Basketball is more than free throws, three-pointers, early practices, and away games. It’s about authenticity and learning how to meet each player where they are. It’s about cultivating a team individually and collectively to show them the value each teammate has — on and off the court. 
    Discarding the Mask reveals the man behind every title he carries. The pages of this book uncover remarkable life lessons Kyle Adams learned throughout his tenure coaching women’s basketball. He is an open book as he pens his journey of being a coach and the mentorship he embodies to provide a safe space for student-athletes. He candidly shares his greatest influences, life’s challenges, and the transformational relationships that have shaped him throughout his coaching and leadership journey. Throughout every chapter, you will see the common thread of meaningful connections and the Soul Sacrifices of a Coach as he strives to leave a lasting impact on everyone he engages.
