  Funny, smart, and just a little bit dangerous. 
  This is not your average leadership audiobook. 
  Forget clichés. Forget “girl boss” mugs and empowerment slogans printed on tote bags. 
  The Future Wears High Heels is what happens when strategy puts on stilettos—and walks straight into the boardroom with vision, elegance, and zero tolerance for nonsense. 
  You’ll meet women who don’t just lean in. They redesign the table. 
  Who don't scream to be heard—but whose presence makes the room quiet down and listen. 
  From date farms to data science, from silent boardroom revolutions to very loud coffee with friends—this audiobook is packed with bold ideas, real stories, and a healthy dose of high-heeled wisdom. 
  Written by bestselling author and cultural trailblazer Dr. Birgit Maria Kemphues.  
  This is your invitation to rethink leadership, laugh a little louder—and walk taller (with or without heels). 
  Because the future? 
  Yes, she wears heels. 
  No, she’s not waiting for permission. 
  And absolutely—she leads with grace, grit, and a GPS for the future.

  For Joey Philion, surviving the fire was only the beginning. 
   
   
   
  On the morning of March 10th, 1988, in Orillia, Ontario, a house fire engulfed fourteen-year-old Joey Philion in flames. He suffered third degree burns on ninety-five percent of his body. Doctors didn't think he would make it through the night. 
   
   
   
  After the Flames is about one of the world's most famous burn victims: his incredible survival, his nightmarish path to recovery that helped revolutionize medical treatment for burn victims worldwide, the fame thrust upon him after he was declared a hero from the media, and the tumultuous years that followed, most of which were spent under the microscope of an unforgiving public eye. 
   
   
   
  The story also follows Joey's family, including his mother Linda, stepfather Mike, and younger brother Danny, all of whom endured their own tremendous hardships in the wake of a fire that changed their lives forever.

  In this extraordinarily compelling trans memoir, Avi, a bearish trans man and Psychology Professor, navigates sex and dating in a phallic-centric universe of men who love men. But something is missing. To become the man he aspires to be, he needs to reconnect with Talia, his hyper-feminine straight female past, and invite her back in.  Growing up in a working-class right-wing Israeli family and barely finishing high school, he became involved in pro-Palestinian activism and escaped compulsory military service by faking madness. Despite poor schooling Avi went on to attain a PhD from Yale and change his life entirely. This memoir is the story of that journey and explores what it means to come home to oneself with brutal honesty, humour, and self-compassion.  Told in three episodes, early transition, later transition and Talia's story, this memoir tackles contemporary gender and social issues. At its heart is a universal theme: to become who we already are, we must integrate the past into the present

  Named a Kirkus “Best Books of 2022” 
  “An engrossing account of the entrepreneur—and the bra—that changed women’s sports.” —Kirkus Reviews 
  “With cogent reflections on American cultural history and the shifts that laid the groundwork for women’s liberation, Lindahl weaves a narrative that is both intimate and topical....[A]n inspiring narrative about changing the world through fearless innovation.” —Publisher’s Weekly, BookLife Prize 
  “…an extraordinary narrative that should be added to every bookshelf….Lindahl’s five-star account will provide inspiration, comfort, laughter, and community….” —San Francisco Book Review 
  The 1970s saw women coming into their own, working hard to create new roles at home and in sports, culture, politics, and business. It was also the start of the “fitness revolution.” At this unique intersection of feminism and athleticism, Lisa Lindahl’s game-changing entrepreneurial journey began. 
  She invented the first sports bra, the “Jogbra,” in 1977. It was the right product at the right time, throwing Lisa into a high-stakes world of business and power—a world for which she was not fully prepared. Unleash the Girls is the improbable story of a young artist with a disability who used her powers of creativity to solve a vexing problem and ended up leveling the playing field for girls and women across the globe—literally, unleashing the girls. 
  Her invention would become a feminist icon and the company she founded would change an industry. But amid the success, Lisa continued to search for meaning and the true nature of power and beauty. This is the untold story of the invention of the sports bra and how it changed the world for girls and women...and, along the way, changed Lisa, too.
