  Life on Delay is a deeply human, profoundly empowering journey through the invisible world of stuttering—and the courage it takes to be heard anyway. 
  Told with raw honesty and remarkable insight, this story explores what it means to live with a voice that doesn’t always cooperate, in a society that demands speed, fluency, and perfection. From childhood shame and teenage anxiety to adult resilience and advocacy, it charts a path of self-discovery that transforms silence into strength. 
  More than a memoir, Life on Delay is a declaration: that communication is not defined by smooth delivery but by the power of showing up as you are. It’s a guide for anyone who’s ever felt delayed, held back, or misunderstood—and a reminder that your greatest power may lie in the very thing you once tried to hide. 
  Emotional, motivational, and unflinchingly real, this audiobook is an invitation to slow down, speak up, and embrace the imperfect rhythm of your own story.

  In today's world, where Western culture and social media promote the idea of perfection, many people in the Christian community are struggling to find their true identity. This disconnection distances individuals from their genuine selves, God-given purpose, and calling in Christ. 
  Despite this turmoil, Peter L. Morton's life serves as a source of hope for those who feel lost and disconnected from their true selves. Pete is a globally recognized security consultant who had previously served as an intelligence officer in the US Army. 
  His life and career showcase the strength of transformation. Pete's story is not just about his journey from being a disengaged individual to leading troops in perilous combat zones across the world but also about discovering his true identity and calling in Christ. 
  His experiences around the world, which include serving on the front lines as an infantryman and intelligence officer and his influential roles as a security consultant and humanitarian, represent a transformation from a life of complacency to one of purpose and authenticity.

  This Autistic Girl Went to Japan is the inspiring story of a young woman who moved halfway around the world in pursuit of happiness. With humor and remarkable candor, Bianca describes the challenges of applying for a visa during a time of terrifying uncertainty, slogging through endless red tape, and the loneliness that comes with being a stranger in a strange land. Oh, and how she wound up evicting a bat from her new apartment, attending a Pokémon GO event with a bunch of middle-aged women, and discovering the best thrift store in all of Tokyo. Along the way, she explains why she feels so at home in Japan, where things are often a bit easier for autistic folks. Well, except for revenue stamps. And opening a bank account. And faxes.

  There’s an entire generation of South African women who ought to read this book.’ – Sara-Jayne King, author of Killing Karoline 
    
  ‘Ougat is masterfully written – raw, unpretentious, unsettling. Shana Fife captures all the darkness from her body, psyche and life with fearless honesty and transparency.’ – Frazer Barry, award-winning theatre practitioner, writer and musician 
  By the time Shana Fife is 25 she has two kids from different fathers. To the Coloured people she grew up around, she is a jintoe, a jezebel, jas, a woman with mileage on the pussy. She is alone, she has no job and, as she is constantly reminded by her community, she is pretty much worthless and unloveable. How did she become this woman, the epitome of everything she was conditioned to strive not to be? 
  Unsettlingly honest and brutally blunt, Ougat is Shana Fife’s story of survival: of surviving the social conditioning of her Cape Flats upbringing, of surviving sexual violence and depression and of ultimately escaping a cycle of abuse. 
  A powerful, fresh and disarming new voice – Shana’s writing is like nothing you’ve read before.

  REBEL. PHILOSOPHER. BODYBUILDING ICON.
  		 
  Mike Mentzer was a strikingly handsome man with a brilliant mind and a “perfect” physique — the first bodybuilder to receive a perfect score in both amateur and professional competitions. In the late ’70s, Mentzer rose to the very top of his sport (despite the efforts made by industry power brokers, such as Arnold Schwarzenegger), was featured in GQ magazine, and profiled on national television. But he was also a man who wrestled with mental illness his entire life and ended up living on the streets and being sent to prison. Just when it seemed his career was over, he found it within himself to reboot his intellect and revolutionize bodybuilding training, arguing bodybuilders should not forsake their mental development in favor of developing their bodies. He became a pariah in the fitness industry (which only cared about selling supplements and other products) but a hero to legions of fans who earnestly sought truth.
  		 
  Mike Mentzer: American Odysseus is the first biography of Mike Mentzer to appear in North America written by his close friend of 21 years, John Little, “one of the leading fitness researchers in North America” (Iron Man magazine). Drawing upon audio recordings, letters, diary excerpts, as well as interviews with those closest to him, this is the true story of one man who stood up to an entire industry — and paid the ultimate price.
