The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

Relationships and happiness are two of the most talked-about and sought-after aspects of human existence. From fairy tales to modern social media trends, we are inundated with messages about what they should look like and how they should feel. Yet, despite this overwhelming focus, countless people find themselves dissatisfied, confused, or even heartbroken in their pursuit of meaningful connections and lasting joy. Why is it that something so fundamental to our lives feels so elusive?
The truth is, much of what we believe about relationships and happiness is rooted in myths, misconceptions, and societal expectations that don’t align with reality. We’re told that finding "the one" will complete us or that a perfect relationship will make all our troubles disappear. We chase milestones, like getting married or achieving career success, believing they will finally bring us happiness. But what happens when the dream doesn’t match reality? What if the problem isn’t with us, but with the stories we’ve been told?
This book was born out of a desire to unravel these myths and uncover the shocking truths about relationships and happiness. It’s not about pointing fingers or assigning blame but about understanding why we often fall short of the fulfillment we seek. It’s about looking at relationships—whether romantic, platonic, or familial—not as the sole key to happiness but as one piece of a much larger puzzle. It’s about redefining happiness itself, shifting away from fleeting moments of pleasure toward a deeper, more sustainable sense of contentment.

The Purposeful Graduate - Why...

Tim Clydesdale

We all know that higher education has changed dramatically over the past two decades. Historically a time of exploration and self-discovery, the college years have been narrowed toward an increasingly singular goal—career training—and college students these days forgo the big questions about who they are and how they can change the world and instead focus single-mindedly on their economic survival. In The Purposeful Graduate, Tim Clydesdale elucidates just what a tremendous loss this is, for our youth, our universities, and our future as a society. At the same time, he shows that it doesn’t have to be this way: higher education can retain its higher cultural role, and students with a true sense of purpose—of personal, cultural, and intellectual value that cannot be measured by a wage—can be streaming out of every one of its institutions. The key, he argues, is simple: direct, systematic, and creative programs that engage undergraduates on the question of purpose. Backing up his argument with rich data from a Lilly Endowment grant that funded such programs on eighty-eight different campuses, he shows that thoughtful engagement of the notion of vocational calling by students, faculty, and staff can bring rich rewards for all those involved: greater intellectual development, more robust community involvement, and a more proactive approach to lifelong goals. Nearly every institution he examines—from internationally acclaimed research universities to small liberal arts colleges—is a success story, each designing and implementing its own program, that provides students with deep resources that help them to launch flourishing lives. Flying in the face of the pessimistic forecast of higher education’s emaciated future, Clydesdale offers a profoundly rich alternative, one that can be achieved if we simply muster the courage to talk with students about who they are and what they are meant to do.
