  Are you tired of being the villain in your own life story? 
  Worried about how this constant conflict might be affecting your kids? 
  Do you feel like a pawn in a chess game with no end in sight? 
  Fed up with the endless power struggles with your ex? 
  Believe me, I get it. 
  It's a tough gig being a co-parent, especially when every interaction feels like walking into a war zone. You're here because you need a way out of this high-stress situation, and guess what? You're in the right place. 
  But first a warning:

This book requires honesty with oneself, a willingness to commit time and effort, and the desire for lasting change. But if you're ready to roll up your sleeves and invest in a peaceful co-parenting future, this book can be your roadmap. 
  Does any of these situations sounds familiar? 
  - Your kid's soccer game becomes a tension-filled standoff with your ex. 
  - Drop-offs and pick-ups turn into battlegrounds rather than pleasant exchanges. 
  - Boundaries you set are constantly disrespected or ignored. 
  - Conversations about your kids devolve into accusations and arguments. 
  - Your children often become pawns in power plays. 
  - Decisions about schooling, healthcare, or simple routines become epic sagas. 
  - You're left feeling stressed, anxious, or upset after every interaction with your ex. 
  - You fear for your child's emotional wellbeing amidst all the conflict. 
  So, are you ready to trade high-drama for high-harmony? 
  Are you prepared to redefine your co-parenting journey? Ready to put your kids first in the healthiest way possible? Then it's time to take the next step.

  Viking - From Norway to America

  In his book, Rasmus Rasmussen provides a full account of the Viking's [1893] journey from Norway to Chicago from a crew-member's point of view. The trip was not without peril and hardship. Their accommodations were crude. The weather, at times, threatened their very lives. Most cities rolled out the red carpet to meet them, but one rolled out the paddy wagon. All together, an informative journal and a delightful read, and one that compels reflection and awe of the exploits of our Viking ancestors. - Paul A. Anderson, Honorary Norwegian Consul General 
  Rasmussen's diary recounts the historic journey made by twelve courageous seamen aboard Viking and includes his personal experiences during and after the Fair [1893 Chicago World's Fair]. Viking is the first Viking ship to sail in nearly 1,000 years, showing the world that Leif Erikson could have reached the New World almost 500 years before Columbus. 
  The Addendum continues the story of Viking and brings the reader up to date on the most recent preservation accomplishments. - Friends of the Viking Ship, NFP

  The Power of Citizenship - Why...

  Scott D. Reich

  Fifty years after John F. Kennedy's death, we find ourselves enmeshed in an era of political division and cynicism, where politicians talk past one another and the spirit of “Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country"" is less visible than it should be. We seem to have forgotten that we're all on the same team. Fortunately, Scott D. Reich has given us The Power of Citizenship, a timely book to bring us back on track. 
  Reich asserts that the most powerful element of Kennedy's legacy is his emphasis on the theme of citizenship, and that a rededication to the values Kennedy promoted will shine a bright path forward for our country. Evoking the hopes and aspirations of the 1960s, Reich recaptures the excitement of the Kennedy era. But what truly sets this book apart is the unique way it blends the romance of Camelot with the new frontiers of today—not only identifying modern challenges, but also offering a tangible blueprint for how we can improve our public discourse, be good citizens, and lift our nation to new heights of greatness. 
  Part history and part call to action, The Power of Citizenship hones in on the very essence of what made JFK so inspirational and timeless, reminding us once again that we must ask what we can do for our country. This is a must-read for Americans of all generations.
