  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  I was born in 1947 to a mother from Barnsley and a father from Essex. I have three great loves in my life: Barnsley FC, Yorkshire County Cricket Club and my wonderful wife. My wife is my rock; Yorkshire CCC are my summertime passion; the Super Reds break my heart year after year - but I wouldn't swap them for any other team in the world. I have tried to look at the world of business through the gaze of a mixture of reality, humour and, on occasions, sheer disbelief. Every word and every event documented is the absolute truth. If you enjoy reading this book half as much as I enjoyed writing it, then I will have achieved more than I could ever have hoped for.

  Awarded a 2024 Independent Press Distinguished Favorite in Memoir, Whispers from the Valley of the Yak weaves an intergenerational story about the power of forgiveness and being true to oneself. When Jackie returns to her Chinese birthplace with her aging American parents (former medical missionaries), profound questions arise about love and family. These questions set her on a quest to understand her troubled childhood and what she wants from life. Living in Alaska for five years, Jackie discovers her soul-place and an affinity for mountains and begins three decades of environmental work. Several solo visits to China help her forge a bridge of understanding and forgiveness with her mother. After her parents’ deaths, Jackie takes her adult children to China to retrace her parents’ 1932 trek into eastern Tibet. In so doing, she realizes she has come full circle to the authentic life she has craved.

  The Power of Dreams tells the story of a couple, already in their 40’s, who uprooted themselves from urban life to follow their dream of living in the wilderness. They settled in a remote mountain valley called Precipice Valley, part of the ancient trade route linking B.C.’s Chilcotin plateau to the Pacific Coast.Surrounded by mountain vastness they lived there for nearly three decades, much of it in near-total isolation. Their dreams sustained them while they carved out a lifestyle that was both rewarding and challenging.These are the stories of how the two of them designed and hand-built a solar-powered, two-storey post and beam house while learning to live off-grid and in harmony with nature. They share their experiences with you through vivid descriptions of the adventures, people, places and the ingenious solutions needed as they forged their Precipice lifestyle and explored the wild world of the west Chilcotin.These vignettes will give you a feeling for life in the wilderness and perhaps inspire you to fulfill your own wilderness dream, helping you find a path through these challenging times when new ideas and insights are so desperately needed.

  Eating when you're hungry ... how simple is that? Not so simple for Josie and the friends she met when she took herself off to One Step, the local Overeaters Anonymous Group. She heard about Rachel's extended family, who thought meeting meant eating. She met Christopher who could only stomach one coloured food at a time. There was Olga who used food as an anchor to her past and Dave who was the family's living compost bin. Then there was Tiffany and Monica and finally Perry whose wife had two-timed his stomach as well as his heart. Josie liked to think of her food diaries as one woman's Battle of the Bulge but really it all their stories, she reflected, as she sat down to write that last entry.
  With Julie McGregor as Josie, as heard on ABC Radio.
